Immobilizer challenge, all welcome

Immobilizer challenge... all welcome!!! Intention: Acura RSX engine swap into a non-immobilizer car, utilize OEM ECU. Objective: use a programmed 555I to use as a transponder unit-receiver to activate the signal when Ignition. solution: using hte 555I as a unit-receiver, will it work? youll notice, the ecu, theres another wire, brwn/yllw, on pin E3 that goes from receiver to ECU. do i need that? or will it work w/ just thw two wires, ign fee d and data? (the next post will include two diagrams of the units, 555I and ECU.) any question or comment, plz ask. need any expertise from yall if i can. Houston,TX

Go to an experienced tuner and have them remove the immobilizer from the ecu? I haven't heard much about the k20 ecus. This could or could not help. These people have a good rep in AZ.Certified Security Specialist

I promise to be good.

if youre talkin about hondata, which they specialize in, they charges like 500 for a reflash. also, i dont want to go w/ a k-pro or stand-alone management system, no money. for right now, i am itching to try it on my sis 02 civic, but too scare if it messes up. ivent heard too many tuner that actually know what the hell is goin on w/ electronics parts. ill take a shot at those two links.

I found your posts at k20a.org as well. Also I see 2 downfalls, first you need an rsx to code the bypass. Second after you program it you need to trasnfer it to the vehicle it will go into ie erasing the code. I'll think about something.Certified Security Specialist

if youre to search a bit more about K-series that ppl use to swap into a non-immobilizer car, theyll go w/ kpro, but K-pro ecu is like 1grand for it. any ECU expert out there or know any site, LMK. if this method works, itll be nice to save some big bucks. Houston,TX
