Thread: B15ve Swap

Are there any other ways of getting that out?

I left it in there. It was miles away from the clutch plate and I just used a socket extension to get it centered as I tightened up the pressure plate so didn't bother to use a spigot bearing.

I took the the pilot bearing out and left that "spacer" in there cause i couldn't get it out.

i had the exact same problem THAT DAM BUSH FOR THE AUTO IS HELL TO REMOVE, I TRIED WITH A BEARING PULLER BUT NO LUCK SO I USED A DREMEL OR PORTING TOOL AND CUT IT OUT....

i took it out on my car, but my girlfriends i left it in.. i just didnt use a pilot bushing when i did her clutch, i eyeballed it on there hehe.. works fine!

when i took it off of my car tho, we had to drill the piss out of it..

same here didnt use pilot barring, the one from nissan wouldnt fit, so i said **** it.

how swap going

I dont feel like taking any more pics unless requested cause i dont think i need to post anymore of them. Anyway, So i took the pilot bearing out and slapped the transmission back on. Here is the problem, when i was bleeding the clutch the boot popped on the slave cylinder so i took it off. The spring in the slave cylinder broke. Questions: How do i know that the throwout bearing is still on? Could the spring on the slave cylinder have broken because the throw out bearing was not on? Is it possible to to check if the throwout bearing is properly installed without the slave cylinder? BTW, when i was bleeding the clutch, the clutch arm was not moving.

We put the car back together today. The car drove for like 5 min with the B15 ECU then died. Afterwords the car wouldn't run with either ECU. It would start up then die immediately. I don't even know how it ran with a B15 ECU since I have a E60 MAF and VE injectors. My guess is most likely the IACV problems since it's not hooked up right. Other issues might be that MAF is not hooked up right, B15 to B14 adapter doesn't work right and B14 JWT ECU isn't programmed right.

Sounds like a real PITA

Yes its a nightmare, I probably should have boosted the roller rocker instead of swapping the VE
