  1. Also is there anyway to tell that i'm in "manual transmission" mode? i grounded pin 50 but i'm not sure if thats it or not i know 95 ecu's completley different than any other ecu's is pin 50 actually it for my car i cant find anything anywhere!
  2. so really they could just do one cycle and thats it? i only get the p1101 code when i do that i feel like i should be getting alot of other codes since i dont have abs or any evap stuff for that matter. has anyone used a a stinger ems? seems like it would solve alot of my problems. then later down the road i can get it retuned if i get another engine.
  3. How do I know when to be done with the test mode connectors does it shut off when it's done, does it keep going?
  4. Yeah I only plugged them in when the car was off and turn the Ingnition on (assuming that's what I'm supposed to do) I don't drive with them plugged in
  5. Still havnt figured out the neutral switch it was only come up when I plug the two green connectors in (p1101) if nothing works out in the next couple months I might just say screw it and buy a stinger standalone and a harness for the ej22 until I can get an ej205 since I would already have a stinger, I don't want to sell it since I can for see how much fun this can potentially have not running like crap, it's pretty fun right now and it runs like crap between 2500 and 3500 don't know why it lets me go above that, I thought limp mode only lets you hit a certain point and that's all you can get up too. For example like 3k rpm. Also it has a grumble, popping sound backfire. Long term fuel trim was about 8.6 while short term is 21 or so seems a bit lean to me the long term doesn't seem terrible though
  6. ill be looking into those as well. but have any of you had any experience with jdm racing motors.com?
  7. JDM racing motors seems to be a very reputable supplier. They have compression checks on their site and they are not bulls****** about it. they take the video of the engine number everytime. I hear there customer service is very good too. anyone have any input?
  8. . That was the site I was looking at and was gonna go with or at least thinking. I was talking to two guys are a car meet one with a older gen Subie said he got his motor from there and he said it was good and the other an mr2. Both had no problems but that's nice they are actually on the states and they show compression tests on engines I was looking at the ej207's I think they had forged internals and coated Pistons and a twin scroll turbo??? I could be wrong but I thought they were way more expensive have you had an engine from there? Or has anyone had an engine from there? I know over in Japan and threat area they do take care of their possessions a lot more carefully. Off topic but at the country club I work at they are very cautious and careful with their gear. They always want it in a safe place, locked or want there shoes shined. Not one not two but all of them lol so I can see them being more caring with maintenance. The 2.2 I got was from the city of Cleveland not exactly the best area and the oil and everything was absolute garbage. Luckily it's okay because it's a 2.2 ????
  9. You should be good. Mine slipped some teeth and kept trying to start it thankfully I didn't mess anything up. Make sure to get the gates kits it's was fair priced and good quality

  11. I want to keep everything under 04. My adapter plate goes up to an 04 but I don't know why the 05 wouldn't since it's the last of that generation right? How much are totaled cars usually worth anyway? 500, 2000, 5000?? I've never had luck parting and selling but that's probably because they were cars no one cared about lol realistically my best bet would be an ej22 block with ej205 heads? I see and hear the ej205 have the same or very very similar sized cylinder walls, I'm not exactly sure how low this will make it but essentially the lower the compression the more boost I can run safely? Or at least to a certain point
  12. Now if i did frankenstein i assume the harness i want is one for the heads and intake manifold ? so if i got 2.5 heads itll drop to maybe 9:1 or something around there which sounds good for a turbo setup
  13. Wtdash thanks a ton for the reply and the insight. i was considering doing to head swap to lower the compression but then i want a different harness cause the one i have no is a 95 which was an really odd year. but either if i did do that it wouldnt matter because i would want the stinger ems a good basic ems unit and pretty respectable it seems like. i just want the area between 200 and 300 max ill take it if i could get 310 or so that sounds like a fairly obtainable number, regardless i didnt know if there was a place thats known and reputable thats not a gamble. I know outfront motor sports is where i was going to have my harness done this time around for the stinger, instead of doing it myself. Ive only heard of good things about their motors as well. i know they wont be cheap. but i feel like frankensteining a motor would be iffy too. i have the mechanical skills to do it. Realistically it would be like you said sourcing the parts. frankinstiening wouldnt be a bad idea since ill drive this one till the motor blows on the 2.2 and in the meantime start saving and scavenging parts!
  14. It'll work i have and ej22 from a 95 legacy lsi auto into a tube frame buggy and while it works it was the worst year to pick because the years before and after the ecu pinouts are different. It was kinda a PITA but don't get me wrong everything will work fine it just takes some time to find the diagrams and info. it was worth it but now were looking into putting in an ej205
