Oh okay... yah you wont', just make sure they flash it to the VIN that the SKIM and keys came from and you'll be good to go.

quick question, you said that you are still using your ket and remote for you car correct? what vin did you flash your ecu with?

I'm using the SRT keys but with my R/T remotes. I didn't reprogram anything, just swapped over the SRT ECU, SKIM and ignition and use the SRT keys. For the Remotes I never swapped over the SRT RKE unit since I didn't have any of the remotes from the SRT so I just kept the R/T instead and it works fine.

i had to switch my abs module cause the traction one in my 01 r/t had a differnet plug than the srt one. I paid 3k for everything i needed off the car.

so are you saying that i will for sure need to get an abs module out of an srt cause of the tractoin control system? cause i am pertty sure after the swap, the traction control will not work...

to somewhat bring this back to life, i had a question on the srt brakes, i know for the swap i'll need the calipers, rotors, knuckle, and steering rack, but could i swap out the brakes now before i do the engine swap? cause i know my brakes are shot and am in need of new ones, and if i could swap them out now would be great cause i got the calipers and rotors, and picking up the steering rack and knuckle this weekend....bill

I'm doing that brake swap prior to the engine swap...but saving the steering rack for the engine swap being that there has been descrepancies over whether it is needed or not and that it is beyond my current skill. I figued 2 months might not be to big an issue on my tires.

01neonrtblk · Post by **01neonrtblk** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 2:47 pm

well i know the steering rack is needed for sure on my car cause evilcreation was going through tires like no other, i was just curious if it'll work....

Post by **Diablo0** » Thu Mar 01, 2007 11:43 pm

Yah, you can swap them over without a problem. You also need the flex brake line that bolts to the caliper. Other than that you should be set with the parts you're collecting.

cool, just wanted to make sure...thanks

list looks to be pretty complete for the main stuff. minus the parts you listed you still need. however i didnt see you list an intermediate shaft, fuel line foming from the fuel tank to engine bay, hot side intercooler pipe, a radiator overflow can, thorttle body, intake manifold, turbo/manifold, and srt clutch/brake pedal assembly.

the motor is a complete motor with the throttle body, intake manifold, turbo/manifold, and i do have pedals, forgot to mention them and i do have the stock hotside pipe and the half shaft, so i'll update that list, and i thought i didnt need the fuel line from the tank to the bay, if i do, i'll get that ordered this weekend hopefully, i am gonna try to order everything that i can this weekend so can start swapping soon, been waiting way to long to prolong it....

only reason to get the fuel line from the gas tank to the engine is because the end part on the engine bay side faces to the driver side rather than straight out in front. it will get in the way of the stock radiator overflow can. it is not 100% neccessary because there are ways around it, but it will make it easier if you are trying to use the stock overflow can.

What he said... its not totally necessary but if you want to use the stock overflow bottle it'll make for an easier install without having to ghettorig something or try to bend the fuel line to clear the bottle.

do you have the intermediate shaft? i know some trannys dont have them on it when you buy them without the axel setup. or if they do they are sometimes broke...

so i got a question, are the abs modules in the engine bay different from an 01 R/T compared to an srt? like where the harness would plug into?

They are not the same.

The ABS Module is NOT where the traction control is located. The Traction control is ingrated into the 01-02 RT clusters.

I still have traction control, and i love it

how did you manage that? cause the harness obviously does not plug in.

Traction? What is that? Man I need some better tires.

My R/T cluster is long gone so no traction control for me I guess

The cluster is swapable. The cluster is the unit where your speedo and tach are located.

i was more reffering to the abs module and not the cluster, sorry for the confusion,]

I believe the ABS Module is identical. You won't need to swap it... when I compared them they were the same on my car

i'll have to peak at it later, as it sits, i got brakes but no abs, oh well, it runs, thats the main thing,

01 abs module is completely different from the srt....

the trac control is a part of the 01-02 rt cluster.

how do I know? cuz when I go WOT in 2nd gear and I see my light flash up 'TRACTION' and i steadily hold 6,000 rpm for maybe a good 1-2 seconds until the tires hook up then i shift to 3rd.

when I turned off my trac control, I tried to do the same thing. tires would spin like crazy and wouldnt hook up as fast as i would w/ my trac control.
