Ok I got a 1uz tb from a Lexus LS 400 for my 1990 supra to use with my new ffintake manifold, I thought it would be plug_and_play but the tps doesn’t hook in to my engine harness. Either I got the wrong tb or there is some moding I need to do to get it to work. I know other people are using them so any help would be great thanks.

Here is the link were I go the info on it http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=164466&page=7&pp=25

I have the same throttle body I checked mine and it does not "plug in" like the post stated I was also following that info. but the stock TPS is the same size and a few mounting tabs will have to be made as it is off 45deg. no big deal for a 70mm TB for 35$

Any chances you can post some pic of what you had to do to the tb to get it to work?
