thanks man this is another update
some of the pics have been posted before
added cross drilled rotors and new pads
installed a Stage 2 BFI chip and 268 CAM
then some enjoyment
Let me just start by saying this has been the worst car month ever.....my car has never been towed before this month and it has been towed 3 times lol..and only the axles breaking was my fault(i went alittle crazy with camber) , the rest just random issues. so the latest was the crank bolt backed itself out and sheared the keyway and the engine skipped timing and bent my valves
HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED OUT!!!!!!!!!
NO COMPRESSION... :cry:
TEAR DOWN
FAIL
VALVE-8 ZACH-0
LAPPING THE VALVES
THE REBUILD

OK so i lied.......Somehow(sprinkled pixie dust in the air and poof) i was able to pick up an 1.8t AWP stage 1 with a k03s swap for the MK3 :twisted: :twisted: and so my current plans have changed . i could use all the aba sensors ecu and harness with a C2 chip and G60 injectors and the motor will turn key with 200+hp .but what iam "attempting" is the other method(aside from standalone) is take the ce2 harness and the mk4 harness and switch all the plugs to CE2 and incorporated the headlight alt and fan from the mk3 harness into the new harness and use the mk4 ECU then upgrade to Maestro and have all the tuning option standalone offers down the road

The MK4/CE2 route

◦Partial Donor Wiring
■Basically the same as using the complete wiring from the donor, except you don't wiring in any part but the donor's engine harness. To get around the need of using the donor's matched cluster you'll need to have the ECU chipped by REVO or Dahlback Racing. Pretty much all chip tuners offer programming which disables the ECU's immobilizer allowing the use of your OE cluster, just ask as its not typically advertised.
■NOTE: Check your wiring diagrams! In order to get DTCs from the ECU without the OE donor's cluster you must confirm that the K-Diagnostic line is routed from the ECU to the OBDII port. On some vehicles this was run through the cluster and would need to be corrected.
■On AWD Engines pin 43 on the ECU needs to connect to pin 7 on the OBDII port, wire should be gray/white.
◦Standalone
AWP swap w/ DBW to CE2 Harness:•Brown Plug, Pin#:
◦1. black/purple wire Fuel Pump Relay
◦2. purple/white fuel pump relay
◦3. red/black starter interlock relay
◦4. red/green ignition for ECU
◦5. blue/yellow power fuse 43
◦6. yellow/black power for instruments fuse 34
•White Plug, Pin #:
◦2. black wire goes to pin 19 on instruments
◦3. white wire goes to pin 20 on instruments
◦4. white/red wire clutch vacuum vent valves switch
•Orange Plug, Pin #:
◦1. gray/white goes to pin 5 on cluster
◦3. red/black goes to back up lights ( I did not use this)
◦6. blue/white speed sensor
◦7. green/gray A/C
◦8. Blue/red A/C
◦9. Green/ Brown Goes to cluster
•Blue Plug, Pin #:
◦7. Yellow/Brown Leak Detection pump
◦9. Leak Detection pump
•Black plug I did not use either it is for most accessories. Such as cruise control. The other plug you will need is a large 14 pin plug near the battery. I did not use all the wires but I did use most. I ran my own aftermarket fans so I do not have much wiring in there for them.
◦1. green/blue oil pressure switch
◦2. black/green power for speed sensor Fuse 7
◦3. white/blue speed sensor.
◦4. purple engine coolant temp sensor.
◦5. red/purple power for fuel injectors fuse 32

I have to start out by saying that your work looks top notch, iv been tossing the idea of a 20v swap myself and after reading threw all the links posted here its seaming much more doable with the strict emissions standards here in new York. Good luck with the swap it seams like youl have no problem![]()
