Hi guys,   apologies if this is the wrong spot for this question, this is my first time posting.   my BP legacy (EJ203HPCHE) ran a bearing and I've found a replacement engine, however it's from an SG Forester (EJ203HPQAE). Does anyone know if I can bolt the EJ203HPQAE right in? As far as I'm aware they're both JDM engines and from the same phase so there shouldn't be too much of a difference? Will bolting it right in confuse my ECU?    thanks  

Between heating the metal weights and applying ice to the case I now have 3 more cases to use for prototypes. the resin glue still has higher melting point than the ABS plastic case, so I tears a thin layer off from the inside.   Spent time rewriting all the storage and variables to use #define names not random numbers. Everything now makes sense and sits in arrays.   Found a bug that stopped the wifi from being set to always on or off. The button on startup to activate wifi had always worked, but the default is now wifi on so initial config can be done. That required wifi on/off to work so it can startup off and the shiftlight started.   Was halfway through swapping the led display to use a timer and interrupts rather than the dodgy timing hack I made up (It’s simple and fast, but I have no idea how it works or how I came up with it). But the hack can stay as too much effort to fix with the new canbus upadates.   Espressif that make the esp32 these are all based on released v5.5 which redoes the canbus system almost completely. There are no examples outside the Espressif ones, so it’s all new code.   While searching for some fixes to the newer code AI keeps offering code snippets. The code is all old. If you say that and ask for updates using new library names it just swaps those names and keeps the old data. It’s a mess and hallucinates the changes between the old and new system and makes a list that isn’t real.   AI coding is pretty poor and keeping up with changes, it likes old examples that everyone repost. All examples it gives for canbus are version 1, that’s very old as few examples even use version 2. That lastest release replaces v2 with a whole new design.  

haha cheers for the bump we'll go for a peek & ahh yeah nah I'll wager you're tame to what we're used to down here aye (think Aussies favorite word for Mate that rhymes with "Runt")   and ps : post the YT links and the forum takes care of it to display like this      

And I thought I was posting into a void. lol    Videos (boring and raw) uploading now. Sorry for the vulgarity in one! Ancient guy trying to kill me during the parade laps.
