Alright guys ive exhausted everything i can think of on this one... I have a 2000 gc8 coupe body with a 2005 STI motor swapped in. The car ran and drove before i got it, the story i got is 2 owners ago was driving it and heard a pop, and then here we are. The car will crank and start and idle just fine, but will not respond to throttle input. THe most ive gotten the car to rev too is 2.5k rpms. Ive don research, Ive ohm tested the Drive by wire system, and i cant find the problem screaming at me. My research has brought me to a "electric Throttle control relay" but i cant find the damn thing anywhere on my car. Im wondering if anyone has heard of this problem, or knows anything on theses swaps, or anything else I can check to get closer to a solution...? Any help would be very greatly appreciated!!!
p.s. i got the whole car, free from rust and idling perfectly, for $500, please dont give me the "if it was wrong, whyd you buy it speech!!" :cool:
