In the future I'd advise hitting preview just be 100% your post is gonna be ok, ESPECIALLY if you have links. Otherwise congrats on the swap, looks solid.

Any pictures of the subframe? Smart move using the RE for better mounting options.

I was wondering how you got the dash to work....then i saw the race pack.
What ecu are you running?

THe dash was quite a mission...its easy to connect to the sensors the car has..some inputs had to be pulled out directs from the computer..Im using a Micro Tech LT10S. The mission comes in play once everything is connected.. You have to adujust everything through the screen. It has different levels that go by numbers. I just used a computer hooked it up to the microtech and got my fuel, rpm, speedometer, water temp, oil temp by comparing them and then setting the levels of each input in the dash...
