i am thinking of installing a 13bt japan engine and trans 89-91 in my gxl non turbo. I wont have any trouble swapping it, i just have some simple questions. 1: can i just put an ECU from a turbo car in there or is the wiring different in the japan cars to where i would have to change the wiring harness also? 2: would i have to change any thing else such as coil packs, or maybe radiator? I am already aware of the drive line differences, a custom one would be built. I also have a cat converter for a non turbo car, would that fit on the new piping i put in for the turbo car? i would really appreciate any input.

 

i would also like to know if it is easy to just swap in a turbo car fuel pump. Also i am wondering if the clutch slave cylinder is different between the turbo and N/A car.

 

search ?

 

what that mean?

dude this is impossible! you better just walk away now. its totally a waste of time

 

There are all sorts of threads about this topic. About once every couple weeks a new person posts asking the same questions....so forgive if you get some rude answers instructing you how to use the forums. I believe there is a thread in the 2nd Gen Archive and if you use the search functions you will find many answers.

You haven't thought this through enough to ask educated questions yet. Are you planning to use a USDM N370 ECU or a JDM N374 ECU? For the harness, yes you will need to make changes. You can't plug your N/A harness into a different ECU and have it work properly. You can swap pins on the N/A harness to make it work...there are threads on that topic also. Are you hoping to use a JDM harness? It will be RHD not LHD so the actual wires on the JDM won't be long enough to reach their appropriate destinations.

That's a start for you anyway...

 

Ok well the last guy helped out some. I've searched alot on here and all I found was a bunch of people arguing, bitching and making rude *** comments to try and be smarter than the last guy, which this thread is probly gonna turn into. I just wanted to get a japan engine because it's cheap and reliable. I read about the conversion on rotaryresurrection.com but I assume he is talking about an american engine swap. What if I order this engine and swap it into a rolling t11 chassis that I can find. I would still have to swap out the engines wireing harness on the japan engine correct?

 

For some reason, I just searched and I found everything you need to know, hmm, it took me 20 seconds to find the answer ?

it means you don't want to spend effort on anything, u just want people to spoon fed u.

I feel sorry for you. I mean it.

 

well, sorrry this whole forum has turned into ***** i guess
