so im riding down the road headed to my sister and brother and laws and all a sudden my hatch starts to lose power. i hear something that kinda sounds like a blower underneath my car so i pull over - like i had a choice and it dies so i try and crank it up again and i hear the sound coming from my catilytic converter or how ever you spell that damn word. so now im guessing its backed up like a porta potty at the olympics so i tow it to the house. so i guess now im going to start my build no better time than the present to do my gsr swap. all i need to know is

1. do i have to send my wiring harness off with the gsr harness if im using the computer from the gsr and if so where do i send it?

2. where can i get innovative motor mounts from?

3. does someone have an engine lift they would be willing to let me borrow ha ah.

rywire is the best if you want to have a simple, plug and play harness. (this is what i've been told, i've never actually had to use them)

and where do you live?

I sent my harnesses to Rywire when I did my swap, and I got it back fully modified to plug and play, no wiring period. I just didn't want to mess with the MPFI conversion, adding VTEC and also going to OBD-1 all at once.

lmao dont think it hasnt crossed my mind but my d15 has 270k on it and i think this is giving me the reason to do my build so im going i guess to get both harness off and send them to rywire and get my mounts ordered then find my shift linkage and start tearing this beast apart and do everything all at once lowering springs, my lip, exhaust, seats, tear out all my brand new carpet that didnt last 3 months, all my braces and if i have any more money id love to do a jdm front end conversion. so im figuring 2 months and ill be good.
