Well the time has come to rid this chassis of the 7M. The motor mounts and exhaust were seriously rust welded on there. but i finally got em out.
On its way out
All wrapped up for the buyer. damn rain!
Tomorrow I will begin cleaning the bay and subframe. While I clean I will decide...
Thanks bro, I already got this guy... so I want to try something a little different. I can get a complete SC4 front clip local for less than $500. that just leaves me with more work to d oand parts to buy to make it work or to even come close to the price of a JDM 1JZ/R154 swap.
Chambers, thanks for the kind words. I have not yet ruled out the 1UZ. I would love to drop a V8 in this bish! I am not ordering any new motorset until i have cleaned the engine bay spotless with Simple green and repainted it, pearl white. I am still looking for wiring diagrams and...
No need to get bent out of shape because someone buys a jumper harness. I will be repinning my swap with the correct colored wires adn plugs. I have lots of cut harness plugs and pins with various colors I can reuse. Anyone care to share where they found the Chaser plugs in case we need them?
So I get my swaybar end links from Tawain eBay seller... all 4 for $80. That crazy chinaman.. .he sends me four of the same links. I was very hesitant to install them, but it seems that they fit pretty well in the front and rear. So hey.... They will have to suffice until I can provethey...
Thats not a terrible price (seems to be the going rate on the east coast) considering all that is necessary and the coolant, fluids and oils and whatnots that add up behind the scene.
Thank you sir! Im gonna order the plugs when needed from Curt at Elmhurst toyota

Trust me I tend to agree with you. but to be honest I dont think many importers care to document these swaps between...
Mattsplat et al,
Thank you for the input.... Im currently shopping for a non VVTi 1JZGTE here in the NYC area. I'd just like to know what I am looking at and being sold prior to me handing over $$$. I dont want to buy things that are gonna sit on a shelf and only lead to me buying or...
Is this also a CHASER ECU? Considering the spacing on the side of the ECU compared to the above posted they look different. Does anyone have the actual Toyota Part numbers for Soarer Supra and Chaser ECU's? from the units themselves? When you say the remaining plugs are attached to the body...
Wow, after what feels like an eternity with an angle grinder.. I have now cut off all the OEM swaybar links. I cleaned and regreased all the bushings on the swaybars. and reinstalled the front and rears. This was a daunting task as these OEM bolts were rusted to hell and back. Not to...
Tried doing a search..... couldnt find any related articles. Where is the 1JZGTE MAP Sensor located on the motor? I know on the 2JZGTE its bolted right to the inside of intake manifold (typically on intake mani plenum, between injector #4 & #5)
Is your water pump even moving any water?
How did you bleed this cooling system? Some time you have to jack up the front of the car a bit to do a clean bleed.
Do you have the maxima fans wired into a temperature switch?
What temp does the switch activate?
