heres some more.. engine bay is dirty and some ugly looking wiring going on there, just drove it to calgary in winter, and when I got here the starter decided to go 'click click click' so I did the relay mod, but it was -30 out so thats why it looks like it was done in a hurry: I WAS COLD!

I wasnt trying to trick anyone, here are the pics. Theyre all stored on my old computer, and I made this thread on the laptop.
I had alot of help with my swap from this website, it is the best website.
Reaper; no hard feelings, I want this thread to stay on topic and not turn into a flame fest!
as you can see ive been here since may 2007, and I have been reading and reading since then. I figured since Ive been lurking for so long I would make my own build thread. Is this one of these forums that gives people a hard time for asking questions? maybe I will go somewhere else. I am not a...
thats why im here, to learn from others who have been down that road before. its going to take some time alright, its going to be done in stages not all at once.
Warning: LONG thread alert, if you want to cut to the chase, just go to the bottom! and check out the pics

today in calgary i saw some dumbass driving a prelude around with no hood on it. ??? weird.
one time when i was 4x4'ing with some guys, a suzuki samurai driver removed the hood of the vehicle because it was overheating. it actually helped alot, it was a really hot day.
i hope this hasnt been asked 100 times already, i did spend hours reading various threads though.
my setup is a 1jzgte with automatic tranny from a soarer swapped into my ma70. ever since i finished the swap everything has been running really good except for one small thing that bugs me. from...

thanks, I will do that soon. Today its supposed to get up to -16!! the last week it never got above -20, so that will make it easier for me to work. I cannot work with frozen brain and hands!
i think its fixed. its one of those intermittent things so im still not sure yet.
i bought a new 1 gauge ground wire, put it on last night. also my battery was a bit low on charge, as the positive terminal was loose.
everything is a big deal when its -25 and snow on the ground! at least it...
i have a bit of a problem with my starter... car is a 1988 ma70 with a 1jzgte swap. when i turn the key to start it goes 'click' from near the starter. click it a bunch of times, usually 5 or 6 and it will start.
so now im in calgary and its -25 outside, and it justs clicks forever and will not...
impact gun! you need the proper tools
or take off the oil pan and jam a piece of wood between a rod and block. or use a prybar to hold the flywheel from turning.
i figured it out. i discovered that my 3 wire speed sensor is not working, going to troubleshoot that to get my ECT working properly. I used the 2 wire sensor, the colours were pink and purple to hook it up, spliced the wires from the ecu plug.
your starter is probably bad. also make sure your battery is fully charged. also go over the grounds: the one from battery 12v- to the block, tranny to frame and head to frame.
the starter is probably full of crap and needs to be cleaned out or you have a bad ground.
give the starter a hit...
I have swapped a soarer 1jz with the automatic transmission into my 88 supra, and am now in the process of hooking up my autometer electronic speedometer. Can anyone help me identify the wires used for the speedometer? There are two different speed sensors in the ECU pinout Sp2 positve and...

i have noticed another weird thing, no matter what gear the shifter is in(L,2,D) it will shift through the gears up to 3rd gear. Is this what normally happens if...
