When I first dyno'ed my car, I forgot to turn off VSA and the car wouldn't go above 2-3k RPM. Turned off VSA and had no problems. Maybe it's not getting the 4 channel speed signals that it needs (as opposed to the 3 channel TCS system).

Kris, I can't believe that you got the hood closed ![EEK!](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
In your picture thread you said you've got a 1/2 inch of clearance w/o the plastic covers and hood liner... I guess that's just minor details tho'![Wink](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Getting it road ready is the first thing, then getting the fit and finish stuff can be done as you have time...
Great job !!

I got the windows figured out. The locks im going to go aftermarket alarm system/set up for them to work (much easier to work with) As soon as i get home ill be addressing them. then ill get the interiorslapped back together and get some pics ![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Dont mind the mess. Its a little dirty.
the inner part of the center console
after i modified it to fit the new cupholder. I still need to clean it up and modify the rear heat ducts.
Needed a shifter so i drilled out the stock one to fit the new manual shaft.
Parking brake
more of the dash and cluster (i now have 16k miles on the car )hahaha

Nope its going to the dealer again wed, and me and a tech are going to try to figure out a few things while its hooked up to their computer. I just thought id throw in those pics to help tide some of the restless ones (cough cough blk2001tlon19s)
over for awhile. If i had the windows and locks working (just need the time to run a few wires) id have the interior all put back together.

Kris, I forgot to mention. PM Richie v6, he has the 6 speed swap on his accord with a j30a1 motor. He used his stock ecu(to my knowledge) and had an issue with not being able to go past a certain rpm. Might have been 2k. It fixed it, not sure how so he might be able to point you in the correct direction also. Good luck with that also.

Ok i discovered that teh maunal motor also has a different timing belt pulley. Just ordered that. As far as the noise on CKP b ??? Im going to wait till i get the other one reading right. I may pull it out and look at it and see if its fully conected.
not worried about the O2 sensor (as im going ot buy a o2 emulator)
