Sorry to bring this old thread back, but this standalone ecu that comes with its own crank sensor.. what is it called? And how do you go about installing it? Would the harness match the ECU itself for easy plug and play or is there more complications involved? Would it work even for an engine that is not turbo charged?

Also, even if the 6MT's supercharged, are you able to still use the standalone ECU?

I also have a question I noticed somene else said they where doing the same thing. Was that ever confirmed or what and did he ever show pics or anything?

fsttyms1

Nothing is simple when using stand alones. Your better off (and most likely cheaper) to just use the oem sensor and crank for your application

fsttyms1

They were going to do what same thing?

joe80055

mmm yeah, i thought so.

Trackruner228

I guess I have no idea earlier in the thread blk2001tlon19s said he was doing the samething well ok i never actually saw him say im doing the same thing but he certianly implyed it or something. Even around page 10 it says hes ordering a 6 spd or something. So I was wondering what ever happened to do that guys TL?

joe80055

Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. I've been checking back at this thread and his Stage 2 Turbo thread but there's nothing new.

Trackruner228

iTrader: (1)

Oh wow I didnt even know about the turbo thread. Hm, well it could be a number of things oh well I guess we might never know.

fsttyms1

He is doing it. He hasnt been on lately though

joe80055

Alright, I'm ordering a few more parts, the sensor will be last for me to buy... it SUCKS. Anyway, here's a diagram from First Acura's parts department for the timing belt cover... which one do I get?.. just indicate the number and I'll know exactly what it is.



I started doing everything little by little since I'll be driving it as I'm doing the conversion .... The pedal and parking brake will be first, then once I find a way to get the tranny and engine, then I'll put the car out of commission and really start to get my hands dirty.

joe80055

Woah, this is interesting.. I was looking up a few more parts for the CL-S. .and I ran into this in car-part.com:

Acura CL 3.2,FAC,6SP,TYPE S CONVERSION,C NOTE 26,188 A SUF331 $3849.99 B & R Auto Wrecking, Springfield USA-OR(Springfield) E-mail 1-800-234-0098

fsttyms1

Part 10 and i believe 15. (which ever sensor goes to the CL-S manual. You would also need the cam gear for the manual, and the lower timing belt gear


But if you can get the whole front clip, I would highly recommend going that route

TL Sport

Read all 43 pages!! AWESOME JOB man! I like it....

Putting this mod at the top of my list after getting my new car!
(We'll, right after installing my current stereo system anyhow).

Your first on East Coast... Who's claiming the West?
I'll have to set aside the parts for the 3.5L and do them at the same time...

Cheers!!

Whenever you do the parking break relocation, please take pics, and make a DIY. I was thinking about doing that a while ago.

fsttyms1

Thats pretty easy to do. the hardest part is modifying the center console for the CL manual cup holder. When blk2001tlon19s sends me his center console (i told him i would do it because he lent me his code reader during my conversion) i can make a DIY.

If you buy the hand brake and the few little parts that go with it and take your console apart you will see it bolts right up with the exception of 2 holes that need to be carefully drilled out to revel the 2 nuts. Once you have the cup holder you will see what needs to be trimmed out on the console

joe80055

Alright, I'm going for it... Next week, I'll request for the parts to be placed on hold for me. Engine, Tranny, everything.

I asked them to leave the Engine attached to the tranny so it'll be easier for me. The total amount of mileage on this is just over 21,000. Would I have to worry about replacing the clutch on this or no?

MikePA

I wouldn't think so at 21,000 miles, but since it's out of the car, I'd check it. It'd be a real pain to get it all done only to find out it's slipping.

joe80055

Yeah.. that would suck .. but then again, I'll take my chances.. at this point, i'm so fed up with the automatic that I'll do anything to get rid of the problem. The guys over at the salvage yard said that everything was working properly with no slippage, but we'll see.

Topher707

Yea, I remember you telling me it would be easy a while ago. I will most likely do the console switch once u make the diy.

fsttyms1

You could start it and i could help you out along the way too. Once you get the parts you will see its easy and where it bolts up.

3TL

In your project of the 6 speed conversion. What did you have to do that was absolutely necessary? Did you have to disassemble your whole dash, get new motor mounts, wiring harness, etc.? If your can answer these questions for me then it would help tremendously!

fsttyms1

The only thing that i dont know if was necessary was the 2 dash harnesses. Every thing else was

special-ed

good job....mad props! make your own wing, do your own conversion.....gonna have to start calling you McGyver!

fsttyms1

I prefer to be called a GOD!

joe80055

^ There's actually been a conversion done over in Oregon.. I've been getting parts from that car which was wrecked completely.

Kris.. I got my compressor and tools... they were all on clearance for $145.. so I got everything I need to not bust a sweat. I'll start posting pics. it'll be a slow process.. It'll take me about a month or so to finish
