Title about says it all.
I know, I know, they're not the easiest cars on the eyes and most of you are probably screaming WHY???? at me right now, but hear me out...
Well, the car my wife is driving is getting quite old and I don't want to keep sinking money in a car I don't like, so I started asking her what car she wanted... and she chose the aztek.... funny thing is that she had never seen this car before and I jokingly was like: "what about this car??" and she's in love with it now... lol
Idk, maybe it's growing on me. Futuristic, and well, it's a pontiac so it has that going for it, and supercharging can't hurt anything right?
The good news:
-this swap has been done a few times successfully on both the pontiac montana and the chevy venture
-the only thing different from the engine and cradle is the power steering rack and things like fuel connectors and cooling/ac lines
-the axles, mounts, subframe etc is directly swap-able so there's really no hardware fabrication necessary
As some background, I am currently studying to be an electrical engineer and work in a research lab so vehicle schematics and wiring are not an issue at all.
The biggest issue is the computer. Fortunately it's a very similar pcm to the grand prix (namely it's the same as the 3.1L 01 gp pcm)
The bad is I've heard it uses class 2 communication so I'd have to use the harness from a regal or century and adapt it if I'm not mistaken.
Anyone done something like this? I've seen a few on youtube, but no one has actually put out a how-to that I've seen.
