    Back in the Game.

    Its been a while since I have posted on here. But I am back and am finally able to afford and have the motivation to do a bpt swap into my DX. Now I just need to locate parts and some help. If anyone knows where I can get the motor, tranny, and ecu along with any other parts you may think I will need to do this conversion other than Corksport, please let me know.

    Thanx

    I'd say buy a bp from maz-toy yard in troutdale, buy a turbo manifold and a t3 and build a better set up than a bpt. Just my 2cents though. I'd be happy to help you drop a bp in and get it wired.

    Are you going to make it to the cruise this Sunday?

      I might do that.... U have any idea how much I should be looking at spending, just so I know what I should expect. As far as the cruise goes, I dont think I will be able to make it cause I have to work and I didnt ask for the time off. Maybe next time tho. Thanks for the invite. Take lots of pics and post them.

        You can get a bp for 450 or so, than it's as much as you want to spend. Poeple usually sell there vj20 with manny for like 400 bucks or so. You can get a bp26 ecu off ebay for 200. not much more than that.

          That sounds reasonable. I am most likely gonna need your help on this if you are available. U think it would would be possible to get this done in a a 12 hour period? Reason I ask is cause it is kinda my daily driver and I would need to have it running. If it isnt possible I can possible stretch it over 2 weekends or something if thats what is needed, please let me know.

            Man this sux... Everytime I get a little cash to get something done on this thing something always goes wrong. Having alternator problems, or at least thats what I think it is. Gone through 2 of them without solveing the problem. So I guess I will have to put my Turbo plans on the side for now.

              Id say, first step is to swap in a bp. We could get this done in a day if you can get a cherry picker and a garage.

                          That is the most tempting offer I have had in a LONG time. I will have to get back to you tho. Money is kinda tight right now, but I will see what I can come up with.

                            Just to give you a heads up. I'm moving to lebannon at the end of the month. But in hine site I'll have a 850 square foot shop. I think I'll hold a build/fix day at my house.

                              Ok, that is WAY to wierd. I have been down there for the past couple weekends looking for houses. Think I might be moving there myself. It was way cheaper than up here.
