Hi Guys,
so with respect to my first thread, i have an AT 4-port 2005 version that had a very tired engine, the engine/box was pulled out and the engine pulled down. So the original plan was to just rebuild the engine, give the porting a little tickle and throw it back in a drive it as a daily driver. Now as most of us would think and say when were standing in the garage looking at the engine bay void of a powerplant.. "well ive gone this far, if im going to do a rebuild why not rebuild a 6-port and do the manual conversion at the same time"
So, after a few beers and some thought i figured my best shot at this would be to purchase a complete 6-spd damaged car or at minimum a front cut.. thus, I managed to purchase a half cut JDM 6-speed that needs a rebuild in the engine department (no problem). i have read a bunch of threads and info on the do's and dont's of doing this conversion.
here
and here
are just a couple examples (above).
My question and this thread is not going to be directed at the mechanical aspect of this conversion (that is all above) but at the electrical. specifically the PCM, Key/transponder, the PATS system, any other CAN related devices, between JDM and AUS/NZ model vehicles.
the original vehicle i have is a New Zealand new, i can see already that the keys are different. my original key looks to have the "keyless" entry buttons on it, while the JDM cut has just a simple key with inbuilt transponder.
so after i swap out the PCM to the 6-port one and sort out my mechanical locks, or get some new keys to suit my barrels and the JDM PCM, what problems will i run into in terms of my Entry Control Module?
shall i go as far as just swapping out the entire body loom under the dash? (pulling my dash out and swapping everything under there) or shall i just try to get away with using my existing body loom and just the JDM engine/PCM loom and then seeing what problems i run into with the Entry Control Module?
ASH8 i know you have allot of info on this, could you shed any light on this?
ill keep this thread updated with the progress and pics.
