I recieved my jdmD15B yesterday and it was an automatic motor....I can just throw any D series fly wheel on correct? It came with a P08 how do I know if its auto too? Are the check engine lights the same as the US ecu? I plugged the ECU into my car seems to run the same but with a check engine prob for vtec and 1 wire O2 (i have a dx with 4 wire currently) and maybe auto code?
Any help would be appreciated
thanks

 

CELs are the same for JDM and USDM.

Check the codes and get back to us with them if you can.

 

i'd send it back and get a manual.

 

If there are 4 ecu plugs then the ecu is auto. Yes you can throw your clotch/flywheel on just take of the torque converter and plate. Make sure you use the flywheel bolts from the MT cause they are different than the AT ones. Some auto motors use different cams but I dont know for sure on this motor.

::edit:: I mean if the ecu is pinned for 4 plugs

 

Also on USDM motors on the back right corner of the intake manifold is a sensor with a vaccume line and a plug (black little round cylinder thing).....on the D15b theres no spot for it do I need it when running the P08?

The ecu only has 3 plugs...but My sister uses an auto p28(now chipped ran fine both ways threw CEL when unchipped) in her sol and thats 3 plugs too.

bump

 

bumpity bump i need answers hehe

 

All I know is that most longblocks are auto's...when my friend ordered a B16 longblock it was auto

 

im pretty sure my ecu has three plugs as well and is p08 running a JDM D15b manual...

 

p08 is 3 plug
p28 auto and manual is 3 plug

 

He has a code 19...if he has an auto p08 ecubeen there done that!!!...you need to get a 5 speed p28 or a p08....p28's work identical to the p08 and are 1000 times easier to find.

 

yeah i got code 19 and the 2 vtec codes i forget them at the moment.....(i plugged it in on my dx motor to make sure it worked) Runs fine.

 

If you would like to get a 5 speed P28 I have one for sale....$250.00 shipped OBO....

 

Where did you order the d15 from?

most jdm motors dont have the evap purge solenoid and dont use the charcoal canister system (that black can deal on the firewall). if u use a p28, i think u can just plug the solenoid into the harness, and leave the vaccum lines unplugged

 

i got the motor from http://www.japandomesticmotor.com ...p28 for 250 is a little steep i can get one for 75 easy around here.

 

sorry, I should have put $125...that is $125...

 

good news they are sending me a manual ecu when they get one in props to http://www.japandomesticmotor.com fast shipping great service
