Just noticed the post now :rolleyes:
I am finished finally. I did a complete conversion, engine tranny the whole shabang.
Now all I have to do is get the bugs out, like I can't get it into gear now, I think I have a boost leak somewhere, idle at 18 Hg?? and my tach doesn't work.
It has been fun though, but long.
Thanks for all the help with the wiring laugh

Matt if your car is a 90 and if you used 91-94 ECU you will need to replace the tach itself with a 91-94 tach.

hey Tony
I got my tach to work, just forgot to plug in the noise filter :rolleyes: It was still bolted to my NT mani.
Had to put in a new Master for the clutch and all is good now.
Now I see how BOOST IS ADDICTIVE laugh alien

I thought you were going to use the NT engine.

I scored that from a member on the board, Todd Meunier. He had it left over from his JDM swap and had it sitting around for over a year. I just came across at the right time laugh Thanks Todd.
I will keep my eyes open though. wink

No problem Matt,
I think that with a new turbo that that old engine would pull as hard or harder as my new engine. I'm glad it is working good for you. I forgot to even tell you that that ECU is for an AWD, I guess it will will work for a FWD if you are using it. I will be in North Bay sometime soon so I will give you a call. You have the yellow 90-91 right? I still have your number. Right now I am hunting don a body kit for mine and it will be getting a facelift.

PS
If anyone wants to give me a good deal go right ahead!
