Alright I had a thought. Most people complain a ton about the cost of the JDM 3s swaps. What if instead of importing a 3s to the U.S. you pulled the motor out of a 5th gen all-track. I would assume it would bolt right up, right? Would the wirring also be easier since your swaping from a left hand drive to a left hand drive? If all this were true, I think that it would be cheaper, granted you would only have about 200hp compaired to the might JDM 3s's
I havn't ever seen this discussed on here, and always wondered about it. Sorry if this has already been discused buy I couldn't find it, and didn't see anything searching for it. |

why would you post with no explanation....? you propose making an additional hole in the drivers side of the firewall and mounting the ECU on the drivers side? or did you mean something else? |
