derp Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Should be able to. The auto is FWD based and couples the AWD only when needed (IIRC) so if you f!ck with that fuse you can make it FWD all the time or AWD all the time. If you're manual, you shouldn't have a use for it. I could suck start a snow blower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublimejoe Posted October 7, 2016 Author Share Posted October 7, 2016 Rad, it looks like the other thing is a "dropping resister" which is also for the auto tranny. I've been advised against cutting them off, so should I just tuck them away somewhere? I really want to just remove them to keep things clean...

Sublimejoe Posted October 7, 2016 Author Share Posted October 7, 2016 It looks like my EJ20g will be delivered to my house on Monday morning! I can't believe this is actually happening! My friends shop Japanese Engine Import in Manassas Virginia offered me a price I couldn't pass up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derp Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Now, I've never done what you're up to re: transmission/engine swap etc., but if I were to remove a plug or a wire I'd personally trace it all the way back and remove the wire/s entirely.

Sublimejoe Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Probably the best idea. Got a piece of NOS molding today that I had been looking for: http://i.imgur.com/ywycldwh.jpg Also got a ton of allen bolts to replace all of the mismatched bolts all over the engine bay. http://i.imgur.com/bfwMOVJh.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sublimejoe Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 I don't remember you ever saying that! Seriously doe, I ordered the correct clutch fork and associated clips last night. Once I swap those out I can actually drop the motor in. Then its a matter of getting it wired up, which won't be easy but at least the motor will be in!
