Looking good Miguel.
Thanks Rufus, there's still a few little things I want to change but she's coming along really well
Had a gentleman come in to UHaul a couple days back, started talking cars, come to find out that he owns a MKIII with a 1JZ swap, so I gave him the forum info

Cool, we'll look forward to seeing him here.
Anyone have an extra manifold sitting around by any chance. I have a blown turbo and using a extra one I have sitting here and found my manifold has a small crack.

I'm gonna be putting in a new manifold in this weekend, ill let you guys know what the old one looks like if you guys are interested
Well I've had my car back on the road for about 2wks and she felt like crap when accelerating. Kept getting the code 52 for knock sensor. I tried just splicing the first two feet after the knock sensor with no luck. Finally decided to replace the wire all the way back to the ecu. Found some stranded sheild wire at Altex for $10 for 20ft of wire (was kinda tricky finding the wire in stranded....most vendors in town went to solid copper centers). Reset EFI system and went for a drive. Drove like a champ. No bogging down as code 52 retards timing. Car has more bite now even with a turbo thats on it last leg.

I just installed one. Thank you guys. On another note some one just gave me an old diesel mercedes. Trying to decide if I'm going to make it my daily apparently these things get around 30mpg. I'll get some pics up soon just trying to clean it out it has some bad oxidation and rust.

I took mine for a little ride around the block. It shifted good so that makes me happy. I still need to take care of a couple of thing. The brakes are still not working right. I need to adjust my tps so that my idle returns back to 800 rpms. It idles a little high after I accelerate. Other then that I should be able to bring her home to San Antonio. then all that's left is to get my exhaust installed.
If you think the 7M is such a greatest engine ever, I have a great business venture for you. Go around and collect all of them sitting in peoples garages with blown head gaskets.......Hell, they might even pay you to take the god forsaken piece of sh#t off their hands. Rebuild them and sell them for a profit. I'm sure people will swap them in their BMW, nissan, cressida, ect. LET ME KNOW HOW THAT WORKS FOR YOU!
