How to Repin the connectors for the ECU <~~ click for link

**Blue Ice** · 10-18-2007, 06:58 PM

Just an update, but no pics, cause it reall doesn't look any different.

ECU = in,
Wireharness = in,
Apexi downpipe = in,
Umm, that's about it for now

but next week is Vaca again, so we'll see how far i get. HALO 3 soaked up pretty much all of my last Vaca.

**Blue Ice** · 10-22-2007, 08:59 PM

first day of Vaca

Your solution for the crank spacer, ftw!

Gimme a call if you need a hand.

My opinion, wire tucks are too extreme, they get the wireing which is already a bitch to work with, and hide it, to where its impossible to work on the harness.

looking good man. good luck on the swap!!

Spring fever has brought back Galant Fever, and now it seems like this project is a lot closer to getting done. With that, here's some of the latest progress.
Today i got the IC assembled and installed It's the 2g kit from Dejon and fits pretty damn well, only thing is i removed the powersteering line and replaced it with a shorter hose.

Gonna have to find a piece to connect here.

The hose that came off one of the ends of the powersteering cooler hardline.

**Blue Ice** · 04-15-2008, 09:02 PM

some pics of the hardline that i romoved

here it pushed the top of the IC forward

Here you can see the two hardlines sticking out on the left which got in the way of the feed cooler pipe

Man this makes me want to say to hell with the 1g and swap motors in my galant........ ;-).. keep up the good work bro. Im glad to see someone stepping up to the plate.
