damn yall posted up like 2 sec's after me lol.  like i said earlier, my friend does the swaps in nyc.  if you are interested please join the stay tuned forum www.stpnyc.org/forum.  he will tell you what parts you need to do the swap so you guys will be able to eventually do it yourselves.  none of those cars are mine, they are all my friends cars.

Does the stock tach, AC, and cruize control work?

I believe you can use a Dakota Digital SGI-8 to convert the square wave pattern for the 6 cylinder to a recognizable 4 cyl pattern so it's readable by the stock tach. I've been trying to figure out the A/C, but I haven't made it very far.

P.S. Thanks for the info TB. I'll have a talk with the guys, I've got my own diagrams and I want to see if our's match (last I heard though, ST was using standalones for these swaps...?). Do you know if they've figured out the CANBus system on the 04's?

Thanks. That car was posted on this forum about a year ago.oo or so. lots and lots a of problemes from what i recall...the guy decided nevere to up date iti guess

thats some BS they havent sent me my activation shiet

so you come here to tell us there are some swaps have been done but we have to join another forum to read about it? lol.

Why is it that EVERY person/shop that tries to compete with me on this swap, feel the need to throw it in my face?  No, I didn't have anything to do with those swaps.  You can look at the attention to detail and tell that those aren't mine.

I'm not going to participate in a battle like this.  But, please don't compare those swaps to mine. 

I have worked hard to earn respect/business and friends on this forum, and in the nissan community in general.  I also spent thousands of dollars plus countless hours developing parts and refining this swap.  I have been in business for 7 years.. I can only hope that a few of you guys remain loyal.  I provide quality parts/work, and that's something that I sell myself on.  I'm not a fly by night shop, and i'll be around as long as you all want that from me.

I completely understand and respect you're disappointment on this matter Travis, but you have to understand that your expectations are far too high, and they have been for years. You can't sit there in LA and expect everyone around North America to drive the continent to come to you to have it done. It's unfair for the rest of us. It's also unfair to charge us money for a service we'd rather perform ourselves. Seriously, look at it from our perspective for a second. I'd rather not have the swap done, then pay someone $2000+ in labor to do work on my car (which no one has ever done before). I'm not learning anything about cars by having someone do my work, and I'm not going to know what to do in the event something goes wrong.

You seriously want to stay ahead in the market? Provide plug-and-play swap kits. We've got the tools and the knowledge to perform the swap ourselves now. So you've always been the one to take a step ahead in the market right? Now's your chance. Start providing us with what we need to do this swap again. No one ever stole you're design Travis, and it's been what, almost 2 and a half years since someone threatened to do it on Vboard? Is there anything out there? No. So take a page from the Honda community, and get this thing out there. This doesn't have to mean the end of your business, because I'm 100% positive there are people out there that will still want you to have it done, and there will always be people who'd rather have a Travis-made plug and play kit then have to sit there and do it themselves.

My rant. Take it for what it is.

It's not a matter of figuring out the harness James. Travis is afraid people are going to copy the design, and have a Chinese company mass-produce them. Same thing goes for the mounts.

We've already got the wiring down.

^ Yea, I don't see where he's getting the hate/comparisons/etc either.

but why not patent the design if that worry exist...

Because more money is made anyways having people come to you to have it done. Why sell a swap kit if you can charge people for labor?

Both Travis, Stay Tuned, and myself have had wiring diagrams for a number of years. It was just a matter of who had the money for R&D, and time to get one up and running. Travis, feel free to correct me, had a customer willing to lend his vehicle to have the swap done in late '05, early 06. I've offered people in my area the opportunity for a swap, at cost, for a while now, and I've gotten no takers. So basically, I have to perform it on my own car, get everything ready, and then perform the swaps.
