Mikey's 2001 V6 Coupe

Brad2274 · Jun 7, 2012

i traced the s2k diffuser, turns out its cf and costs about $1000, not worth it for something you have to cut up to fit, id rather have a metal one to play around with.
i dont have my sunroof open long enough to care about the noise, i had a visor from my parts car but i didn't like how it looked so i ditched it, just drive around with it for a while and decide if you wanna go back. dont forgot when you have the visor you cant stand up through the sunroof to do a drive-by :kenny:

I bet the J32 gets louder than the J30 at WOT.

Well I'd be lying if I didn't say it's a screamer when it's in the upper rpm bands.

I guess you could say VTEC "kicks in" a little harder. :lawl:

All this "increased power after a swap" talk has got me looking forward to joining the club.

Mikey · Jun 7, 2012

You and me both Derek.

Maybe I need to do more research, but I don't think there are alot of J swaps done that are auto.

Hoping to be a bit of a pioneer as far as that is concerned.

You, jbissel, and Wheeelman are the only ones I know of.

Regarding jbissel's, I don't think he ever actually got it up and running, wasn't really able to get a solid answer from his threads.

Michael has been a big help, and I am hoping he can get his tuned and dyno'd at some point. I am curious to see what an auto swap can do.

I have to concur with everything you've said, Derek. Glad someone's on the same page I am. :lawl:

Are there detailed details in their threads anywhere? I thought I remember hearing Richie say something about doing a J32 + AT swap but I thought he said there'd be difficulties.

IDK why you can't just find a wrecked AT CL or TL and swap everything over; motor, trans, and ECU.

Great minds, Brother, great minds.

Michael(WHEEELMAN) has alot of details posted in his V6P thread about the swap.

You can swap everything from a CL/TL, you just need to find one that has everything complete and in working order.

The preference should be for an '03 Type S, that's all.
