Unfortunetly I didn't take any during the swap... Just after. :/![]() ![]() ![]() The last picture is of the automatic connector. I have a jumper for starting the car (neutral safety switch) and a jumper for the Drive signal to the ecu. As well I did have to disconnect the ISC because it was annoying as hell. |

So it's been a while sine I last posted. I recently went on a trip in the car from east outside Winnipeg, to Edmonton, my brother and his gf were behind me. Roughly 1400kms. The roads In Saskatchewan were so bad they blew my shocks, as well as my brothers gfs shocks. But it also cracked my frame! My alignment was all out, and it was down right dangerous to drive. Finally got to my aunt and uncles place in Edmonton and started working on the car! Long story short, I couldn't fix it without my fathers help. So I hitched a ride back home and a couple weeks later we drove out to Edmonton and welded up the frame and branced everything! Then on my way home, 5th gear blew out in the transmission. So with 1000kms more to drive, I did it in 4th gear. Got the car home in the nick of time, had work the next day, went to work and back. Got home and the transmission blew. so this weekend I spent it converting the car BACK to an automatic. Won't forget this trip lol

I wish I could of found one in such short notice! The only thing is now I have a much better understanding of swapping the transmissions out. And it'll be that much easier to swap it back again! |
