I swapped a 2+2 without using a different ecu or harness and without changing the AC. It can be done well. I can lay it out for you. whole thing cost about $3000. Biggest hassle is making room for the intercoooler pipes through the front bulkhead. You can reprog your ECu yourself with a down load free off the internet and a new chip. YOu will have to find some tv shop to resocket your chip. LOTS cheaper than buying a ecu and you can flash as many different programs as you want. Good for 60 hp,. Let me know.

 

oh dear....and i thought i was the only person dumb enough to want to swap rather than just buying a TT...my clip just came in today...to my surprise, came with a very good condition JDm dash...very tempting to switch to right side driver...have the capabilities to do so...just not the patience...i wanna drive this bitch...

 

Nice find dude. That's good info there given by someone with first hand experience.

 

whats up with you saying that??...thats like all you say over at 3zc

yea ive used that thread a few times on here. its really long, but useful

 

I'll second that My friend

 

so i can use the n/a ecu and wire harness for a tt swap ur saying??

 

and usually when NA swaped to TT already will it be reliable as the original TT? It;s true that I want more hp but I also want it to be reliable too.

 

It should be,...as long as you do it right.

 

No, you can't use the stock N/A ecu. Zleeper is incorrect. If has engine hasn't blown up yet, he's very lucky. The N/A uses different injectors and it does not have the proper safety maps. You may be able to use an N/A ecu if you have the EPROM reprogrammed.

 

Yeah, what he said .

Just don't take any shortcuts and you'll be fine.

Wish you the best

 

Maybe it was not clear enough. I said I did reprog my ECU. Works fine.

 

I think it would be cool if those wanting to do a TT swap could get it done be members that have done it before and give them a chance to make some money. Myself I've never done a N/A-TT swap, but If I was to do it, I'd go step by step and ask lots of questions.

 

yup or U can just read every single quote on teh link B provided

 

Guess I missed that part.

IMO, I would be hesitant to trust an EPROM upgrade downloaded from the internet.

 

JDM TT from clip 3250.00 shipped.
engine in good condition......

I can finaly complete my NA 2+2 - TT swap.

 

sweet, where did ya get it at ? im also looking for a jdm tt clip

 

cool, where did you get it from?

 

Way to go. Now you'll be joining the TT group and be having more fun.

 

Lucky.... WAY TO GO!!!!! U should take a shiznad load of pictures and tell Rizz to make it a sticky. Idea?

 

I got it from NoyanUSA there out here on the east coast. Manassas VA.

Oh there will be tons of pics my friend is helping me and he did his graduation project on rotary vs piston engines. so he will use all of these pictures for his project. We also have two girlfriends who want to be involved so they offered to man the cameras.

Ill be sure to post up lots of pics.

 

I wish I could get someone to man the cameras, but then I'd have to do something. Like work.

 

Is that 2 girlfriends each or...

 

2 girl friends total.

I recieved it yesterday in the same condition it was in the photo.

I took a bunch of pics but havent had a chance to host them yet.
ill put them up tonight.

 

Hey let me know how it went, cause I am going to be doing a swap into my n/a. I'm not sure how to do it or if there will be any problems, like wiring issues. I already have the motor, tranny, ecu, and wiring and a fmic, but don't know wtf to do. So if you post info on how yours went, it would help out alot.

 

I have a 1991 n/a and I just bought a TT motor that came with tranny, ecu, wiring and a fmic. I'm not sure if the motor if the drops in or not and if I have to do any mods to it or if I needed anything else. Also I was wondering about if there would be any wiring issues. I saw in other posts people were just buying front clips, but too late for that, my motor is already sitting here. Basically what I'm asking is, can I just remove my old engine and drop it in connect wires and drive off with it? PLease help me out, its been sitting there for almost a month, I'm tryin to figure out how to do it cause I don't know of a shop around here would do it.
