2005 Vz Wagon
So short story I blew up my 2005 Vz wagon engine (175kw) and have recently installed a 2005 Svz Engine Saden and 5 speed trans (190kw)

I have swap the ecu, computers, reprogramed my bcm to the new computer and have installed the engine loom and the little black box in the fues department all off the svz, into my Vz wagon

The Svz engine was working perfectly before swaping them (I even dove it up the driveway)

The problem I'm having is that the engine wont start doesn't even crank over, tho the throttle gate is opening, the fuel pump is pumping, the injecter are working but there is no crank???

How do you know the injectors are working if the engine doesn't crank? Having power doesn't mean that they're functioning as the engine needs to rotate so that the ECU know when to fire the injectors.

If you haven't pulled any codes and it's not showing any, I'd probably start with grounds and the neutral safety switch.

It’s a can of worms going from LE0 to LY7. Would have been easier to do an LS.

Have you changed the PCM as well?

Correct airbag info?
ABS mismatch?
