Rebuilt the brake calipers and got some new wheels and tyres. KYB shocks and some lowering springs. Next investement is going to be new B pillar vent covers, mouldings for the roof rails, the rear window and quarter windows.

I've run an ecu without those outputs, and what you get is straight from 1st into third. Second is bypassed.

Doesnt the Auto ecu send a pattern on-of code through a few wires to the TCU to tell it how much throttle % you have? I bet it's not like that on the manual ecu.

When you see girls think : "Midlife crisis" when you drive past :-)

I got the same issue, 7M-GTE swapped to a a 1JZ vvti. IG- on the diagnostics connector has no signal, NE i get a nice 4.7 volts pulse on the scope, which doesnt seem enough to drive the tach. Does anyone have a diagram that shows where a 1JZ vvti gets the IG- from?

Here's a wiring thing i made for people wanting to install the suprastick in their mkIII's.

Toyodiy shows it as being connected to the BOV VSV, but i had no trace of a tube nipple there. That's a boost leak tester on the intake.

Plus if you run realy realy low on cash, you can still eat them.

I get dtc's for spd1 not being fed back to ecu (speedlimiter at 180km/h if i do) and the fuel computer of the chaser not being in the car. That adn the fact i disabled the abs :-)

Found this one whistling air and no idea where it goes to. Anyone with a vvti 1JZ that knows?

This thread needed a bit of updating. Engine fail (headgasket) Auto box burned up two weeks after engine upgrades Sideskirts fitted and body and taillights given a good cleaning/polish And yes, after getting rodbearing issues it was time to be smart and make the 1JZ...

Not a very good video, but hey you cannot use this system and film yourself with one hand :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHvtZKkYF3c

When you drive to autozone with it and as you walk in the employee looks at you and puts a headgasket kit on the counter.

After mailing back and forth a bit their conclusion was that somehow i had an older auto type under the car which has a shorter shaft than the later ones. I paid for shipping it back and they sent me a shorter one back which fits perfect.

Before, with the 7M i rebuilt. And after, when i became smarter and installed a 1JZ vvti.
