[@wayyveetsunami5307]

[@antfct2]

Hey did you ever post the update video?

[@antfct2]

I just completed this swap on my rsx and and going to do the wiring tomorrow but If I dont need that box then that would be great

[@Deemossi]

@@antfct2 u don’t need the box

[@antfct2]

@@Deemossi So just wire it straight from the motor to the ecu then and done?

[@boyflexnv]

3 years later and it’s being used by me for reference! Thank you for the help

[@dc5.nandoo]

Most people arent willing to give out information. I appreciate you for making such a good video explaining everything🙏🏽‼️New follower.

[@jswizz420]

Ayyyee, just got my eps rack yesterday for $100, this install was the easiest to follow, going to install mine this weekend.

[@Deemossi]

nice, dont forget to check out the updated video, part 3

[@5luggin]

My man. Got me thinking before famous.. with that song. Thank you for this video!!!

[@chuckhart7808]

04 rsx ecu in 02 civic with 04si steering rack. This video had everything needed to wire it in thank you

[@TonyWestDIY]

Good explanation papa. Thanks for the shout-out! The main thing for 05-06 is the Dakota box for the vss since is a different signal from the 02-04. If I'm remember correctly, Spaz had a glitch until 5 mph without the Dakota box and one the day the steering wheel got crazy moving around. It feels great to have power steering back though 😂

[@killabeeseries]

Thanks for the helpful information man! I installed my eps today and works like a charm.

[@Deemossi]

💯

[@derekbosch5559]

Insane help man, much love for this

[@taggincali]

Been waiting for this right here 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Deemossi]

let me know how it goes so we can keep updating . ill have an update video after a few weeks of using it

[@ariesr4883]

Can u show how u mounted the eps box and where did u route the harness to the engine bay? I think the eps in the ep3 is mounted to the side of the hvac (passenger side) dc5 has a different hvac.

[@gphiproductions]

Thanks for the info! 🙏🏽

[@fc1jz51]

thanks man, thts helpful stuff. cheers.

[@fc1jz51]

[@katana4565]

Great video! Really appreciate you going in detail!

[@Deemossi]

No prob

[@willalexander177]

My racks been collecting dust on the shelf in the garage. Thanks for making a video. 🙏

[@Deemossi]

Your welcome . Thanks for commenting man and hopefully liking my vids. helps a lot . appreciate it . n I’m in the process of testing the rack for a few weeks and I’m going to give a full review . I’m testing if you need a Dakota box or not .

[@CopKilaTGOD]

It really doesn’t seem that difficult I’m goin to try it. Thanks Mossi

[@Deemossi]

If you have kpro you don’t need the Dakota box , not sure about ktuner tho . I think I’m going to test it without the Dakota box . I’ll update with results

[@jayr8178]

Easy details 🙏🏻thank you

[@fokel38]

Did you have to activate or sometging in the ktuner ecu? I have a 2005 rsx and did the wiring just as you and its not working with the e9 e25 amd e26

[@thegaragespecialist6833]

Nice work wiring is always alot of fun lol

[@Deemossi]

All started with your video to help me take this thing apart and now I’ve learned so much in a matter of a year. building the EK swap just seems so easy to do , after doing everything to the rsx .

[@ryantheiss6412]

Thanks for the info!

[@HouseOfPetrol]

Hey man, i hope your eps works like you want it to ! What was your reason to change from hydro rack to a eps rack? I kswapped my 05 em2 coupe, and it's been nothing but trouble since installing the ep3 eps rack... Sticky steering , almost no self-centering , knocking sounds when turning the wheel, not steering straight, no feel at all, .... Did almost everything to better it. -shg rack slider -tegiwa rack raiser -tegiwa adjustable tie rods -hardrace extended ball joints -4-5 different alignements... Nothing changes... Last steps now are rebuilding the entire rack , and adding hardrace reversed tie rod ends and hope for the best ! Congratz on your build!

[@DanielRodriguez-ge5bh]

Any update on u man?

[@5luggin]

My man

[@ariesr4883]

Does the EPS box get hot after a long trip or a lot of steering is involved? Reason for asking is that I want to install the EPS controller box in my glove compartment.

[@shamgod321]

Hey Deemossi, thank you for the video series. Did my conversion on my 7th gen civic today and hooked up all the wiring but it’s not working. I think I may have tapped into the ECU incorrectly since my wire harness was faded and I couldn’t tell if it was blue or green. Decided to go with the green and now I’m thinking maybe it was the blue. Do you know what distinguishes the two harnesses? Is it year or the car? I got mine from a 2002 ep3

[@MiguelGarcia-nl3ci]

Hello Shamgod did you figure out your car

[@jessedelisle5236]

I got my solid blue and solid yellow wires but i dont have a blue with white stripe (mine is green with white stripe

[@hellofriend3647]

Hello there everyone. I have a question, I recently converted my 04 rsx to eps and I've been having problems, my power won't turn freely and it also recently went out on me. Need help. Please and thank you

[@juliogutierrez7916]

Hey man I had a quick question about the wiring I am running an 05 06 engine with harness on A 02 04 type S ECU Do I hook the wires up accordingly to your 0506 or since I'm using an 0204 computer do I just wire it like an 0204 I also have a capro jumper harness from A 05 to a 02. If you can help me out with this I really appreciate it been following you for a while I did abs delete at a few bucks relocation everything pretty much from you I appreciate the help

[@Ton_Mobb_DDC_TypeS]

Bro I just got ex same green yellow and green wt white stripe

[@Deemossi]

yea 2 different harnesses available, if you wire it up let me know the results here, so i can post it

[@sayeedrahaman4527]

Hello Friend, great video there. I need any help possible. Actually i did the opposite of steering rack replacement. I had eps got rid of it because of knocking and steering spinning. Electronic malfunction. Then living in a 3rd world country i have to import rack from Malaysia, England or Japan mine is right hand steering. Hydraulic rack installed and working but rpm dips low when taking all the steering lock to park. So my problem is hooking up the power steering pressure switch two wires to ecm. The green/white wire and black. From checks online the green white wire goes to e plug pin16 and black ground wire A plug A24 brown/yellow. Thanks

[@nazarudinnor5569]

How about indicator light power steering problem. Do u have idea?

[@Pranjul_ram]

I can’t find power steering and transmission fluid dipstick on our Honda Civic 2016 plz help

[@adamsarre5874]

I watched the video a few times before asking this because you say everything is in it. I can't seem to find where you ran the wiring harness through the firewall

[@Deemossi]

11:41 under gas pedal , remove rug n plastic cover then run it with fusebox harness. didn’t talk about it but u can see it.

[@adamsarre5874]

Thanks man appreciate it. 🙏

[@nazarudinnor5569]

How about AT VSS Vehicle Speed Sencor i should use no. 25?

[@JayPapas91]

👏🏽

[@mpoghost37]

Are the t Taps not safe to use or it’s just preference?

[@Deemossi]

Would also work. It’s possible they can loosen with time .

[@BooEagles1]

Does this allow you to eliminate power steering without stiffness?

[@juju9304]

Thats what im trying to figure out too

[@johnr154]

I clicked on the Dakota digital box link, looks like it’s no longer exist. Is there another link I can refer on? Thanks

[@Deemossi]

It’s not needed , make sure to watch parts 3 and 4

[@heartcinnamonroll]

Where are u at bro. I maybe bring the car for u😂

[@randhyraul]

Has anybody done this to a 02 04 crv I need info want to do this to my crv

[@JORDYWx]

Is there anybody else who also has a steering wheel who moves like crazy? I placed my wiring in my DC5 (rhd) eps swap and the steering wheel needs to be recalibrated i guess. Does anyone knows how to do it? 2002 model

[@anxiety_driven]
