K24 swap into R53
#51
The ECU in our mini only control the motor and communicate with the body control module. My mini ecu is completely out of the car. My reverse lights work too. Answer is yes. It all works like nothing happened.

https://www.hondata.com/?_route_=kpro Im using 02-04 rsx type s engine harness with 02-04 kpro ecu. it has its own wiring and does not communicate with the mini at all. you need 3 wires. constant 12v, ignition, and fuel pump wire. Then fan control but that another situation. Im also using the k-tuned swap harness (any chassis kit) its all plug and play at that point.

Fan control is complete. Very small task but a huge deal for me to find the correct wire. Whats happening is when its time for the ecu to turn on the fan it checks the Engine Coolant Temp Sensor that is on the head. In the software I can turn the fan on at whatever temp I want. From the conversion harness I have 1 FANC wire. That wire is actually a ground signal produced by the ecu. In the original mini harness I have found the FANC wire and tested it by simply touching it to a chassis ground. After various of tests I connected the Honda FANC wire to the MINI ecu plug.
This is the wire I found that kicks on 1 relay in the engine bay. Ground that and you have Fan on. Im using original connector in the engine bay spliced to my new fan.
screenshot of K-Manager. So much can be done with Hondata. Its pretty much a stand alone ecu.

I believe this will be the final update for you guys. I still need to get it tuned its running a stock basemap for now. Motor is stock anyway besides intake manifold, throttle body and exhaust. So the car runs great. Their are no engine lights and it runs as it should.
As for the cluster goes, for now I use my phone. But I do want the CD7 dash from AEM but its just not priority right now.
I put the exhaust shield on with some minor trimming and bracket need to be made.
I have also put back the bottom splash shield. No trimming fits like stock.

No part numbers. As you can see in the previous post. I bought the integra/civic kits and turned those mounts into the ones that I needed for it to work for my car. Custom made. Someone needs to 3d scan my mounts and start selling them as a kit.

I have completed my return fuel system. It wasn't too hard. The mini fuel pump-hat has an existing nipple that is capped off. I have cut the tip of it and used the evap quick disconnect fitting that is then connected into a -4an return hose all the way up to the engine bay. Under the pump-hat I also added another hose that drains to the bottom of the tank. This way no splashing will happen inside. (not pictured.)
Factory Clips were still used. The 2 evap lines were cut out and thrown away.
