no i just figured it would be ok. and it was cheap. it spools ok. and doesnt bleed off but i should have went with a smaller one for what i need it for.

i have a friend that can hook me up with an inspection sticker so i dont have to run a cat at all so that helps me out alot. but for a while now i have been driving mine around with just the downpipe. because like you i have to save money and get parts. like exahust. and springs and stuff. your lucky though i have always wanted a white supra.hi johnny im merki i love ur mk3 also it looks like a clean garage.post my page and i will show what i got mk3 with a killer attuide
i did all the wiring to mine myself. it was time consuming but not hard. took about 3 days. but im pretty good with automotive electrical. for the average joe i would agree just have someone else do it.
Haha, thanks. You really cannot go wrong with the 2JZGE. Cheap, has aftermarket, strong, and you can swap over some 7M goodies.
I would pay some company like pheonix or a shop to do the harness splicing. I just don't think it is worth the hassle. The mechanical stuff isn't bad. Make sure you get a complete engine / harness / ecu combo meal. I also got the ignitor / coil to make sure it worked correctly.
The key is to not do the wiring yourself.Hey also live on cali how hard is to do the swap thinking to do same thing,on my own.
i have the mk3 radiator right now but i got hoses from autozone for a mk4
Yes I noticed most of them matched also. Did you use the mk3 radiator or did you replace it? I need to connect the engine to the radiator but the stub-tubes are different diameters.
yea when i was wiring mine i was pretty furstated but i just sucked it up and did it... turns out it was pretty simple. most all of the wire colors were the same so i helped. it runs now but still not finished
I need to finish: Custom Exhaust, wiring the ignition switch plug, I am waiting for the ignitor chip in the mail.
Thats it. :icon_surp
I will get some super-sweet pictures in the next couple of days.
I can understand why people have given up. :3d_frown:
I live in California, which is sub-par as far as laws allowing me to do fun things to my car. I have already gone to extreme lengths to ensure this would pass emissions standards. I have 1 of 3 CA emissions ECUs, I am getting the exhaust customed with the CA legal catalytics. It is a pain.
In order to keep my swap legal I have been considering the Vortec Supercharger kit for the IS300. I wonder if anyone knows if the kit would work for a Lexus SC300 2JZ? Does anyone know if the IS300 2JZ is the same as the SC300 2JZ?:1zhelp:
I am staying NA for now until I can save money (5K) and do the research to see if the Vortec kit will work.
I envy you your 2JZ. Turbo swap coming or are you staying NA?
oh well that works, yeah dude before i started i heard about people giving up on that so i didnt even try. how far along are you? when do you think you will be running or are you already.
I didn't know of a place to send it to get the work done. I am an electrician, but this still a ton of work.
lmao, i know. i sent my engine harnesses to Phoenix tuning to get them spliced together. I refuse to even mess with that. Yeah its freezing balls everywhere. -
