If you look around there's plenty of info. First thing you'll need to know is that the 1j motor mount brackets won't bolt into an '88. You either need an 89+ crossmember or something like BIC's adapter brackets. Also you really want a 1jz that was out of a supra, one from another car will cause...

Yep, the 1j and 7m fusebox connectors themselves are almost the same. The 7m has an additional wire for the alarm system. You'll have to splice in all the wires aside from the ones grounded to the ring terminal.

Use a hole saw bit. I used a 2.5" one. Also, make sure to run the harness through before putting the engine all the way down, it's alot harder to pull the harness through with the engine in. The ECU is in the stock location, but faces the opposite direction. As few as 18 or up to...

You need at 2.5" hole saw as mike said. Look at the firewall below the speedo cable hole. There is a break hardline running across this area and it has a bracket bolted down with a single bolt. Below this bracket is an open area in the firewall, the way I do the tuck is to drill the hole right...

In August 2002 I bought my first supra, a white '88 turbo auto. Bought my black 87 in November of 2004. Sold the white one a little later. Bought a black 90 summer 2005, tried to restore it and ended up giving up and parting it. Bought a white 89 winter of 2005, fixed it up and sold it...

Listen to this man, I spun out on the highway in a storm and I couldn't get a grip on the steering wheel for way too long. I'm getting my power steering back as soon as I can.

Just a preview of the interior plans:

Alot of things stop the 7m from idling right. Check for vacuum leaks. Pull the plug on your ISC and start the car. If it makes no difference, the ISC is clogged/broken. Bring the car over Mike's this weekend and we'll help sort it out if you want.

I'm not 100% sure what your talking about, but there is a plug on the 1j harness that is not used, just some of the wires from it.

N/A to turbo the cables were the same, but the short part on the end of the auto cable is different from the 5spd cable. If you buy the short cable for the r154 from somewhere it'll work just fine because the long section is the same. If you want a short cable I might have one lying around...

My harness is routed as rakkasan describes. Make sure if your doing it that way that you put the harness through the hole before dropping the engine in. Also installing the harness and doing the wiring is infinitely easier with the dash out. Using this method there are only 30-some odd wires to...

I haven't updated this in forever. I figure i'll throw up a few pics of the car as it was for NE2k7. No interior pictures yet because i'm still working on it.

I did the same exact thing, expecting it to be on the top hose. I'm so used to working on the 7m.

I'm going. I'm also gonna try and hit up e-town on sunday.

Yep, they did change them. I put 89 seats in my 91 and one plug is bigger than the other. Same 3 wires though, I just cut the plug off the harness end and crimped on some spade connectors to hook it up.

Cheap, fast, reliable; pick two. Too many people buy a supra expecting to get all three. That's the real problem. I don't think it's lack of experience. I bought my first supra 5 years ago knowing nothing about them except that I wanted one. I've learned alot the hard way, and it would have...

That light grounds to the shifter area, on top of the transmission tunnel, check the ground line that runs there from the dash and make sure it's good.

The first wire is the main power wire off the alternator. It needs to be connected to the two black wires which originally connected to the 7m alternator. The second connection looks like a ground, but I can't tell where it is so I don't know what it should bolt to.

Hmmm I have a couple of MK3 articles that aren't up there. I'm gonna have to scan them when I get a chance. That's quite a list though.

The connector your looking for is the M1 connector. It is located behind the dash above the glove box. It's a gray 11 pin connector (for 90+ supras anyhow).
