BPT swap progress....
I just put together a site on the cardomains to show the progress and problems regarding the swap of a GTX motor to a Protege.
http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...page_id=263925 It's getting close, I hope to fire it up by the end of the month! Rick |
Holy cow man, looking at the wiring photo gives me shivers down my back. Nice touch with the lawn chair.
I am in the process of doing one also but a little simpler approach. For now I will be using the stock GT ECU. First thing I did after getting it in the car was a test start without the turbo. Believe it or not it actually started. So far so good. Next is the 89 Probe intercooler and RRFR. |
One question though. There is a short coolent pipe above the turbo that I see is not connected to anything. Do you know what it is supposed to connect to?
|
Im not too sure which one you mean. Here's the pic for the cooling systems:

Wow... awesome. This gives me some idea of what will need to be done if I want to do the same thing.

Make sure you pick up that Kokanee can from the side of your intercooler before you put the bumper back on hehe ;)
You don't wanna waste beer Very nice by the way. |

He said there was no info on the region it was used though. But did say the code shows A/R ratio of 20 (VJ-20=15 ) and said the compressor was larger. I would like to know where you might have heard of its use, I've been looking for months so I would know what to expect from the "snail" I guess I will be finding out by the end of the month!:bt: Anyways, when does your GT-R project begin? Post lots of Pic's not too much info on the GT-R around here! Waiting anxiously to hear about it! Rick |
