Hi - swaped in a '99 type R engine into my '00 GSR after I hydrolocked the engine.
Swap went well - insurance paid so had it done at the dealership..except up here
in Ohio dealer dumb with anything thats not completely stock.

They used my GSR engine harness; and I provoided them with the correct
type r ecu. The car is tripping check engine light - and now the VTEC won't work
and the car idels really high.

When they ran the codes - it was the coolant sensor; which they never plugged
in since the thermostat housing does not have sensor built into it.

I was told I coudl either extend the plug to reach the coolant sensor on the back of
the type R block; or swap out the thermostat housing. I didn't have a thermostat
housing to swap so I decided to extend the harness.
I cannot find where on the type R block I'm supposed to plug this in..
I found something next to the oil filter which looks like it could work; but i'm not sure; its not threaded; and I think I have to remove the hex bolt.

I took some pics of what i'm talking about - if anyone can help/or give me
suggestions i would much apperciate it.

Why don't you just use the GSR thermostat housing?

lol - i'll do my best; do have to either turbo or supercharge..but maybe
this spring

don't have the thermostat housing from the GSR unfortatnely...

is the spot on the block in the pics where i'm supposed to plug this coolant
sensor in?

Thanks!
