Yea. I'm inclined to agree, but I had a sliver of hope and was naive enough to think that if I could somehow get some other OE ecu to work I might keep my dash, so I traded my original Z1 throttle for the Z3.

So imagine how hard I felt like kicking myself in the nuts when I decided to change plans, and had to buy another Z1 throttle. *facepalm.*

My wavetrac LSD came in yesterday, so I dropped the LSD and tranny off at RSmotors.

Ron said it should be done by Tuesday at the latest. Assuming I don't have to replace any gears.

I did take my JDP lip off and retrim it. The old trim didn't hold that well and a corner was peeling off. Look so fresh again.

It turned out pretty good. I mean the lip doesn't look any different really, just has a black plastic trim around the edges so it doesn't cut into my bumper.

Oh you mean the other project lol.....I forget that's the main reason why people are in my thread.

Now I know how a woman feels.

Wavetrac LSD is installed so that means the tranny's done!.....which means green light for test fitting. Might start pulling the L15 this Friday or next friday depending on a few factors. Wish me luck.

Any plans to release details of the components used to make this happen for those of us who would seriously do this?

Looking forward to hearing about your exploits out on circuit going back an engine letter.

Technically I've already listed all the components. Anyone serious should be able be able to figure it out. I wouldn't mind going in dept, but honestly speaking if anyone needs to be spoon fed exact step by steps shouldn't be attempting such an involving swap

800 something, but I only bought the display dash. The data logger is much more expensive.
