I have my J32A3 all bolted up, just waiting on some other parts.

Good info.

I was at the wreckers today, trying to find an APP. I found some Pilots and thought they would be drive by wire.

There were 3 there, all roll overs and all still had engines in them. They were all cable throttle with no butterfly flap either.

I think the TL from 04-09 will be the same for sensors, but other J engines aren't like that.

Don,

Does the RDA ECU eleminate the limp mode issue, also have you figured out how to dissable the immobilizer. I noticed in another one of your posts you just pulled the immobilizer card from the ECU. Does that work in this case?

Hey everyone this is Nick. I'm over here at RPM Systems. I have some pics/info. to post up regarding the DBW system that Don is researching. Please check back soon.

EDIT:
Ok here it is. Don is a mad man here at RPM Systems and is working on a working DBW system. Basically for the J-Swap world it will come down to which RDA ECM/ECU will be used. He's still working on a immobilizer bypass, or if you have a buddy, he/she can re-flash a key for you. This is the bundle of wires that he's working with . . . please stay tuned for more to come . . .

DBW swap up and running! To update this thread:I was fortunate enough to have a complete NBW 04 TL donor car; I just got it up and running in a del sol. I will have complete updates with pictures, information and video soon. I used none of the original b-series harness; or cluster. I have most features working on the TL cluster transplanted; as well as fully functioning immobilzer. There are no check engine lights. Brief drive was taken this evening, full 6500 revs vtec and all, didnt beat on it hard yet... Like I said, updates coming soon.

Thanks to Don at RPM for the info to get me started...

Amazing Don can't wait, are they going to have an option to come with rda ecu's? then I can just flash my own key/immobilizer since i work for honda :) I just started emailing back and forth with you look forward to your reply!

While doing more wire tuck tonight I will have a cold one in your honor for this!! Brilliant

to answer that question look at my prelude build thread. Don built me my harness for the 3.5 in my prelude back in september, and it is still working flawless.
