DET Swap (http://www.digitalpose.com/mbrapp/album/OpenAlbum.jsp?t_s=1024606992561&aid=5070&vid=1)

Here are pictures of my hell of a time dismantling and re-assembling my NX for the swap. Let me tell you, it was not fun.

It's fun now though!:D

It runs like shit because I my BB ECU doesn't work, so I'm running the DE ECU until I find another ECU. It runs really rich and idles like crap, but other than that, it runs fine. I know people are going to think I'm crazy running this way, but I tell you it's fine other thn the problems listed above. I'm running so rich I don't have to worry about pinging at all, but I still try to keep it out of boost. My fuel economy since the swap is - 266kms = 37.080 litres!! Now that's rich!

As for the clutch, it chatters like hell whe starting in 1st. You just have to get used to it, and it'll be fine. Just ride the clutch when starting off and you'll eliminate chatter.
