Well I messed up last night and over slept by 3 hrs. So they told me to stay home. I took advantage of the day and got her ready for the exhaust installation Wednesday. It is keeping the charge, so there should be no reason it won't get done.

I can't help you with that.... but good to see you are still at it. I hope you get it straighten out soon. Im just now getting the old supra on the road.

It took a while but I replaced the starter and the battery. The starters 12v post was lose and must of been grounding out the battery with the vibration of the engine. It was bad enough to kill my battery. It fires up every time now. Im gonna take it for a little crusie tomorrow and button down...

Nope, usdm came with 550s and afm. Jdm with 440s and map sensor.

Got it. This kid dropped by yesterday. He offered up some 550s and a safc. He had a lexus with a 2j swap. I had one on my 1jz but I never touched it. I might just buy the 550s since he is selling them cheap. im not sure how far I want to go with this car. I finally got the damn starter off...

Rufus is that map ecu anything like a safc?

I got it started, and figured out why I had trouble with starts. I pulled a rufus and Attached the 12v from the battery but forgot to tighten it. Now im gonna see if the battery will hold the charge. Im still gonna take the starter off and clean the contact points. If the battery holds its...

Time to head back to the track?

Well I jumped it, and it started. Then after a minute of running with the cables off it died. I went to crank it but it had no juice. Thinking it might be the alternator.

I bought a new battery back in September or so. Last time I moved it was October. So maybe 2 1/2 months since I started it last. I need to buy another volt meter because I left mine at the land.

I went to fire her up and the freaking battery is dead. Either I have a bad alternator or something is drawing on the battery when its off. I am just finishing up my vacation, so I got a lot of things done. Im gonna get this thing done now that things have calmed down over here.

Nothing just the family thing. Yeah, still have it. Yep, but the season is coming to a end. Kids are doing good, Marcus is graduating this year. He just got accepted to U.T. Austin. Life has been good.

Good to see you guys still on here.

Im just gonna go to a muffler shop around here that can bend pipe. Nothing special just want to get this thing on the road. Some mki and mkii guys stopped by when they saw my car, and kinda got me motivated. Then I got a call from a old buddy from Austin that gave me the kick in the pants I needed.

Well, I got married last month..... And you won't believe it but I got insurance, and registration last week. Today I'm gonna see if I can find someone to take care of my exhaust.

Rufus, were you on the 64 today?

What year is your car and what tranny do you have? Jza70 will slide right into a 89+. The 1jzgte vvti is supposed to be really fun on the bottom end. Hell if you're gonna do a swap might as well go all the way and 2jzgte it.

Never......? And the light never went off? Maybe it was never hooked up? And when you did the swap you hooked it up. By any chance did you have a bhg on your 7m?

Well I guess I was wrong. Everyone is driving the car they've always wanted. Somehow I doubt it. Along with being cheap mkiii owners aren't very honest.

A lot of mkiii owners down play the mkiv. I would say 95% of us would jump at the chance to own a mkiv. But we don't have one so we act like what we have is what would have choose given the chance. Lets be honest.
