What I recall form the pictures is there is a "ecu" harness that run for the computer to the firewall I bet thats where its tagged in..
Yeah, I'm waiting on the motor to show up before I order anything else but I will get the manual. I was just wanting to get the dash harness if I needed it before they scrap the rest of the car. I looked more at mine and it is wrapped up in the dash harness. Now I plan on buying a generic OBD2 connector and wiring it into the ECU to save me from buying and cutting up a dash harness. It's going to be a slow build because I plan on buying as many parts as I can before I start.

It is fun to drive now, it will be so much more fun with 3 times the horsepower and A/C. And I already have a turbo lying around if I decide it's not enough power

Hope this helps!






Flowchart Note that all the comm is on 1 can buss agri evidentially if you look close you can match the pinouts to the OBD connector.





OBD COnnector





OBD Connector Pinout.

Cool, thanks. That's what I need. I got a text from the seller saying they are pulling the swap in the next few days.

Haven't started yet but I did get the swap and some odds and ends. Still trying to figure out if I can use a stock ecu or will I have to go with a stand alone system. Anyone use a Megasquirt or any other stand alone engine management system?

I don't know how you would get your hands on one of these? But it seems to fit the bill:

Haltech might have a solution:

I looked into the HPD setup a while back but you have to be a registered race car driver to buy it and it was more than what I paid for my Mini, motor swap, and my Fit all put together! The Haltech is pretty pricey as well.
