Thread: New VE swap and a couple q's

Dude you can hit me up if you need any help with the swap. I'll help you as much as I can.

Get everything together and running yet?

not yet - accidentally tried starting it up without an ecu today - experiencing some issues with the stupid pcv valve not going in correctly...but all in all it's going well, just topped up the fluids and wired the maf today. Will probably give er' a whirl tomorrow after I put in the mt90 fluid and away we go Still unsure the quality of the connection on the spark plug wires though, the de wires seem to sit 1" higher than the VE ones, what's up with that?

barg - ok so I'm now trying to fit the new pcv valve into the valve cover. here's a photo I found, it's the one on the right.


It doesn't seem to want to fit, seems one guy 'trimmed' it to fit - not sure why that's necessary, anyone have any ideas?

Uh, that PCV replacement doesn't look like the 00-01 RR one I picked up from my Nissan parts dealer. If that's the one the parts dealer gave you, use WD40, dishsoap or a light film of oil to see if it fits inside the grommet. If not then you have the wrong one. The one for the VE and the RR DE are the same, at least that's what has worked the best.

there is not grommet in my vc, just a metal hole...

oh fuk i'm an idiot - didnt see this there, I'll have to go get that part!
