I've seen a few post with some details for this swap, but not specific enough to give me a direct answer.
I know a few have successfully done this swap and now its my turn to ask for help. I have a 98 Manual GT and wanted to know if there are any parts or anything I need to look out for when doing this swap. I will be picking up this Beams next Monday. The harness, ecu, air flow meter, header, shifter, fuel pump, axles, and tranny are included in this set. Does the harness need to be rewired to work or is it just plug and play? Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks |

QUOTE (Rusty @ Jul 29, 2009 - 6:59 AM)  are you going to paint the engine bay while your engine is out? just wondering... No - I don't think I have time to do that. Just getting rid of dirt and grime that build up over the years. I wish though. QUOTE (njccmd2002 @ Jul 29, 2009 - 12:26 PM) how many miles on that engine, and does it work? I don't remember how many miles because I replaced the speedo a while back, but I think when I got the car it had like 112k and I probably put 50k on it myself. I would recommend replacing the engine gaskets and ur usual maintenance parts, clutch was slipping. I had a code relating to a sensor - something about insufficient air flow -- I don't remember at the moment, but I'll check my records. |
