    Anyone with a HDS in melb?

    I've just completed my transmission swap on my FD, last thing left is to get the manual ECU programmed for which I need a HDS (Honda Diagnostic System).
    So does anyone know someone that has one in Melbourne who's services I could hire?
    Don't feel like having the dealer tear my wallet a new hole for inserting a plug.

    How much did you cost to do the swap? Including parts.
    Try giving RevZone a call. I know they do Hondata there so they might be able to help you out or point you to the right direction

    Will give RevZone a call tomorrow.
    Was a DIY job so cost me nothing in labour, parts cost totalled about 1200 including tranny, machined flywheel, new clutch kit, fluids, shifter assembly, ecu, etc...

    They were reluctant to do it for some reason, the search continues.

    two different engines, two different gearboxes.

    OP got FD1 in his profile. which means he has R18 engine.
    youre wondering if K20 gearbox will fit. it wont fit on OPs car but it will fit your car FD2.

    I was gonna make a DIY, but most of it is covered here

    Hardest part was removing and installing the transmissions, took like 3 hours just to wiggle the auto out from such a tight space
    Clutch pedal took some effort as well
    and yes, i got the R18.

    Back on topic, might have to buy the HDS myself :<
