Thumbs up Keeping my fingers crossed.

Well I just took my G over to 4MyRide.com in Ontario. They received the engine from engine trend on Sunday, and I was told by Tony that they should have the swap done by the middle to end of next week. The only issue they had with the engine was that it looks lie it came out of an AWD car, and some extra stuff needs to be swapped out from my car. I asked him to take it to Technosquare too and have it re-flashed and tuned after the new engine is running in the car fine. I'm SO excited to have my car finally being close to running again. It's been since Laguna Seca back in January.

Later,

Ray

Bad news guys. Tony just called me tonight and said the engine isn't going to work. There are quite a few things different with this JDM engine and it would take some money to get it to work. So now I'm back to square one and I'll have to talk to Engine Trrend to see if they can find one that will work or give me a refund. Oh well, I'll keep trying. See you guys at the GTG, and I found a newbie that's going to be showing up tomorrow (tunerdad) with a sedan.

Later,

Ray

Yeah, I'm just swapping for another stock JDM engine. And although it would be awesome to throw in a RB26, I don't have the time for it and I don't really want the hassle.

Later,

Ray
