I WISH!! We waited for this guy to show up with the DRBIII and he never showed. Our friend Ferris is willing to bring the system to use after hours but needs to have it at work the next morning. Robert Krause hasn't wanted to stay late to do this. I can't blame him as he has a family waiting on him. Robert did spend quite a bit of time on the car today checking all the wiring. Kanzus sent me an email about how he had the same problem and got his car to run after correcting a wiring problem. the reason for this is that there are some differences in the V8 harness and it has to be altered. Robert Krause used the Crossfire wiring diagrams and the V8 harness diagrams to confirm the work my uncle and I did. I was hoping he would find a screw up that we could just fix and start the car. but unfortunately all of our wiring was done correctly!

Kanzus, if you are reading this, the drive authorization in the ECU is "OK" but we cannot get into EZS drive authorization to check the SKREEM module. This is why we think we need the DRBIII. I really believe we that we have faults in there that need to be cleared. But you cannot clear codes unless you can communicate with it. Robert did mention that he really likes this swap and may consider doing it for others once we learn everything we need to make it work. I told him I would give him the mechanical recipe if there are guys that want a V8 but would prefer a good shop to to do it. I have spent so much time in the shop that I have gotten a real good feel for the people and how they operate. If I couldn't do my own work this would be the place I would get my car fixed. I have been impressed with how they treat thier customers and how hard they try to keep prices reasonable.
