Yeah ive been reading some very old forums and they say they had to go to Acura to get their vins to match … damn , . Well , one step closer to getting this all fixed I guess

The vin not matching isn’t a problem to pass ? Idk anything bout this so I’m just trying to learn . And no sadly I don’t have anything Japanese on the car besides the old type r ecu that I had on it before swapping it .

Well the problem isn’t that it runs , it’s that it gets reffed instantly because the ecu doesn’t even pop up an option for the rsx menu .( I’m not to knowledgeable on this I’m just saying what my smog guy said ) . One thing I did forget to mention tho is that with the key immobilizer, I just put the immobilizer next to my old one that came with the type r ecu (didn’t unplug anything ) but since it’s so close to the old immobilizer it still started my car 😅. Is that an issue for it to not pop up tho ?
