I'm using a 1jz ffim. The 1jz iscv uses the same plug as the 7M's. But will it funtion properly?

Ok, so I finally got around to getting my project running. At first I wasn't able to engage the starter, so I ran a relay from the battery and that fixed the problem. Now it won't stay running. This engine has never ran before in my vehicle. I have a SAFC2 and VPC wired into a factory JDM ECU...

Just finished putting in the middle section of the 3 piece brake lights and can't figure out exactly how the hatch release cables run. There are two that come in off the middle light section and one coming from the front of the vehicle.

I turn the key, dash lights dim but starter does nothing. I unhooked the plug on the side of the starter and ran a power line from the battery and the starter kicked on fine. I have no idea where the problem lies. I did a Auto to manual swap and spliced the black and white wires from the AT...

It seems like every time I see a pic of the vacuum lines connected, they're ran one of two ways. Is there a difference between the 7MGE and 7MGTE's paths. Perhaps some are bypassing their heater cores? Can someone please post a pic of their heater control valve with the vacuum lines attached...

I am in desperate need of the thread pitch and size of the vacuum port located on the outside of the manifold, far left, after the throttle body: And the two on the inside of the manifold in the center: Sorry for the old crappy pics, but it's all I have at the moment. Anyone...

I went with an oil filter relocation kit and a larger cooler, but now I need to plug the line return on the left side of the oil pan. Since I don't believe the threads are NPT, I'll need a plug with a rubber seal. Can anyone point me in the right direction as I don't know the exact size or...

So I tested all of my grounds and they are good, but I still can't get any power to the ECU. I am not using the original power wire coming off of the battery. So I don't know if I'm missing something. I have a power line running to the starter, running to the alternator, and have the wires...

I'm in the final stages of completing my ride and I recently discovered that one of the "mystery plugs" in my bay belongs to the Fuel Pressure-Up VSV. It's simple enough to install, but I have no idea what I did with the thing. I'm sure it's in one of my many boxes, but I don't want to go on a...

Part of the harness that runs over the cam gears and comes out by the CPS has 4 broken plugs. Most of which attach somewhere on the thermostat elbow. Pretty sure they go to: 1) cold start injector time switch 2) temp sensor (gauge) 3) Oil pressure sensor 4) EFI Water temp sensor...

I should have done this a long time ago. Problem is, I never noticed this coolant return until I was looking at some pictures here on the forums. I realize that the easiest thing to do would have been to just run a line from the coolant pipe that wraps around the back of the block to the return...

Can I mount it in the throttle body? The manual states to install the probe in the intake manifold, but not after the cold start injector. I'm afraid the probe will get saturated where ever I install it in the manifold due to the position of the CSI. The manual says that the probe can be...

I need roughly 6ft and want something that won't collapse under the vacuum. Material isn't important as long as it will hold up. Prefer the color to be black. Will something like this collapse...

Had the parts forever; just finally found some time to install the stuff. One day I decided to walk the local salvage yard in search for the smallest charcoal canister. I found it in a small Kia (Sophia I believe; but it was awhile ago). The CC had a nice 2 bolt slide on bracket that was...

I was able to source an ISCV from a 1J for my FFIM; however, it did not include the check valve or rubber grommet. Which ones will work and where can I source it from? I'd prefer a new one since I've heard they are prone to leaks at high boost levels. I spoke with Jeff over at Champion; and...

I have a 1J FFIM I'll be using on my 7M as soon as I have some last minute welding and polishing done. I just now realized that it wasn't provisioned for the 7M ISCV; and one from a 1J with a plug is a little hard to come by. What kind of problems can I expect if I decide to just put a block-off...

With my current setup I should be somewhere around the 500whp-550whp range. I recently purchased a nice looking Trust Power Extreme II catback because I heard that it was a full 3" all the way through. However, I looked into the muffler and it appears to taper down to maybe 2.25" inside. I'm...

I realize it's a typo. Even still, this month's Auto Locator caught my eye with a MKIII on the cover. Snatched it up as I was walking out of Sam's Club. Pretty low mileage for an 90; too bad it's a non-turbo. Advertised price inside isn't too bad though.

I've finally put the interior back in and now I'm working on the wiring. Currently, nothing spliced into the ecu (WB, EVC, VPC, etc) is working. I check the power to the ECU and it is good, but the ECU grounds are not. Which wire on the main harness provides the grounds (Ground "B" per TSRM) to...

I need a pic of the passenger seat rails. Right where they bolt to the floor in the front. I'm trying to bolt down a set of shadow grey seats out a 92 into my 90. For some reason it looks like the rails are reversed (left where right should be and vice versa). The brackets sit a good 2"...
