JDM Engine was ordered and delivered November 13th, 2001

I orderd the engine from Dave Gibson from FC3S.org (boy does that date this build!)

I also picked up a JDM transmission from him as well with 12,000 miles on a rebuild.

At this point, the car had already been towed to Rotary Performance in Manassas, VA to handle the swap. I was way to amature at this time to achieve this goal (especially considering I was still in highschool at the time and didn't have the time between work and class).


JDM Engine and trans installed into car December 9th, 2001

Had to purchase a new S5 T2 EFI harness, and other misc parts to fit the engine into the car. New AFM, MAP sensor, also bought a brand new TID from mazda.
