My parts haha. But i would not recommend him stock ECU... he should get Nistune, which is cheap and works great.

If you need the car running ASAP you copuld also get a used SAFC from ebay for like $200 and run the stock ECU from your DE, it's not ideal but it would get the car up running good. Do a search on the other forum to dial the rigth settings on the SAFC.

Lesson learned: Don't do VE swaps on a whim.

You mean to say you couldn't find a USDM SR20DE anywhere near you?

LOL- This thread was made because you were too lazy to search enough and read the faq's. That is why people are giving you a hard time. By the time you got your answers here, you would have found it by searching and reading the faq's.

I run with a VE ECU which is tuned for a manual and they removed the speedlimiter and set the revlimiter to 8K.

Nistune doesn't support VE so you still have controller to set he VE points.

im not tryin to be an asshole, but when i start seein the same questions pop up over an over im like wtf??

i did tons an tons of research when did my first swap, an it went fairly smooth..


google is a big help also..

Not saying your being an asshole but dude its just a forum... and it was just a question.. i'm sure i'm not the first to ask a question that has been asked and i'm sure i'm not gonna be the last. I have done my fair share of research and my fair share of parts ordering, i was gonna make a full build thread on this car, it has gone a long way... but there is no point and if everyone just flips out on someone for asking a question then i guess there isn't much a reason for there to be a forum in the first place, is there? its a place for all of us to talk about our cars and ask questions about things we don't know.
but THANKS for your help and opinion

Yea, you arent the first and you arent the last person to ask a question that is common knowledge and could have easily been found by doing research, which is why people get pissed off because it happens over and over again. Sure if you were the only person who has done it, it wouldn't be a problem. But you arent, you are only adding to the problem and cluttering up the forum for people who DO search.

Don't even try and say that you have done your fair share of research on this subject, because if you had, you would know what you need to do to get the car running. Hell, it's even in the faq section
