Hell yea dude, good work!! I've got about 800mi on mine now too, will have lots more if it stops blowing coolant all over the place every time I get it running good lol. Very ballsy driving it that far after the swap, congrats! I know you're running the Lex/SAFC, what other fuel upgrades you...

Finally got back around to working on the Supra after about a month. Damn bike, all I want to do is ride :) Had 1 knock sensor wire shorted to ground (again), need to find something higher temp, it looks like the braid melted into the center insulator. I temporarily ran another wire from...

Another option for having the parts made: http://www.emachineshop.com/index.htm Some guys I work with have used them, parts came out nice and the prices weren't bad at all. Have to have a CAD file and import it into their software though.

Sounds like you're getting closer, it's all the little crap (like knock sensors) that will drive you crazy. Stay cool :) Have you tried kicking on accy power and probing the ECU connectors to check that you're getting power where it needs to be?

Ah the joys of a fresh engine swap :) I'm actually going to be in town this weekend, gonna mess with the Supra a little after I get some crap done around the house...

The CEL should flash rapidly if you have Te and E1 jumped and no codes so something sounds funky. Go through the 7M wiring TSRM and check all of your power connections (I believe there's a copy on 1jz.com). Also make sure everything is plugged in, I missed a couple of connectors the first time...

You have all your power, grounds, ignitor and everything else hooked up? How did you run the alternator wiring? Does the CEL come on when you just kick accessory power on? Do you hear the fuel pump kick on when you turn the ignition on? It sounds like you're either not getting power to the...

Could be the unrecirc'd BOV, mine was dieing without a return to the intake pipe. Also, with a code 11 the ECU won't give you any other trouble codes. I had my grounds attached to the one of the bolts on the IM and moved them to where the dipstick support attaches (steel vs Al) and the code 11...

Nice!

mine = pre-89 harness so I have no idea :(

I know it works for yellow clip, but as long as the wiring colors ont he grey clip are the same you should be good. And you don't need a stinkin dump pipe :)

It's for the PCV valve... Motor's lookin good!

Silver FTL j/k :) Not sure what I'm going to do with the TT wheels yet, might keep 'em and put some drag tires on...

minor transmission tunnel mods lol :) What about motor mounts? I remember seeing someone on toyota3tc.com saying a 1jz came close to bolting up to the stock engine mount tabs on the subframe.

Got me some rimz tonight super cheap, craigslist FTMFW! Gonna paint 'em black and put a red pinstripe on the lip, that is after the car is running well:biglaugh:

Subscribed :) Interested in the mounting as well, my next project WILL be a 1jz 'rolla wagon...

Be out of town every weekend until probably the 23rd and am working on another project so I have no idea when I'll get to mess with the Supra again... On the plus side it's not really anything related to the swap, same crap would happen on a 7M so you guys don't have anything to worry about :)

If you use a cast Al elbow it has to be cut down some, as does your comp housing and it needs to be welded on. A 90deg silicone coupler will fit but I can't guarantee it'll hold up as my first one melted. For the p/s lines, you can pull out all the hard lines and stuff on the stock pump...

If you have the means to get the elbow welded on do it. My first 90deg coupler melted because of proximity to the exhaust manifold, and that was with heat wrap.

I've scraped the lower pipe a few times but that's mainly because of my blown front struts...
