Looking good man. :)

I remember that car! Still have video of its first start on an old cell phone, and a lot of pictures from that first year on the road.

Glad ya got it sorted out. Was about to pop in here with a relevant thread from SF that popped into my email today. =)

Been over 15 years since i worked on a 7m, but I think you might be on the right track with the cruise control. What else sits in that part of the engine bay?

Anymore if I see accounts with 2025 signup dates, my first thought is immediately... AI? Thanks again Jeff!

Plug wire sequence, and I would make sure the igniter wasn't unplugged as well. All those new plugs won't get any spark at all if the igniter isn't plugged in...

I understand that motivation is both precious, as well as fleeting, when it comes to cars you've had for a long time. That's the boat I'm in as well. Wish we had decent weather year round...

Appreciate you sharing these scans.

If you can build your own harness, that might be your best option at this point. Yeah, the time cost is a real factor, I get that. I spent something like two months of my evenings to de-pin a Miata harness and remove unnecessary circuits for my Exocet, all so I could have as compact a harness as...

I had no idea they had changed the oiling system in the least on those engines. Learned something new today. Have you considered using a pan from a 6M or 7M?

I forget the measurements, it has been nearly a decade since I was messing with all that stuff under the car. I'd recommend using a ball joint style end link. Heim links / rose joints are going to wear out sooner than later and will make all sorts of awful noises. There's a reason you don't see...

Anyone try the Nutter Butter cereal yet? Not bad.

I'd be on board for a meet, weather permitting. I know the Colorado Supra group has an annual meet, but I'm not on Facebook so I usually miss the timing on it. You're right on the LS being a good daily though, just picked up a 2000 IJM LS400 after thanksgiving. Fantastic car to pile on the miles. :)

Check through the stickie'd threads in this section, might find the info you are looking for. Wiring isn't my specialty or I'd be glad to help. Good luck!

Maybe it is simply a way to confuse bidders so they don't actually know how much they are bidding?
