Need help with wiring information 98 2JZGE VVTI from supra into 87 mk3 supra

[AquaX]

okay I have, 2jzge vvti from a 98 supra super low mileage, full swap with ecu and harness + exhaust manifolds and downpipe with cat. I want to put it in a 1987 supra I yanked the 7mgte, and now I can't find any info on the wiring. Does anyone know of a write up if one exists?

Also does anyone know if the 98 supra ecu needs a transponder for the key to start? i hope It doesnt

has anyone not done the swap on their own? If I figure this out I will make a write up as I don't believe you should be paying some jackass wiring shop $900 and waiting a few weeks to get it done.. Plenty of wiring write ups are available in the 240sx community its a shame everyone is trying to make coin off this in the supra world.

If you want a 100% professional job, nothing beats a wiring shop.. If you want a half assed, fire hazard of a job.. Then go ahead, get your soldering iron and crimpers out.

Otherwise run 7m electronics and be fine.

no offense but that's a load of shit, you're not going to cause a fire by splicing a dash plug and maybe tapping one start signal from the fuse box. You can do it clean if you take your time, I have lots of rubberized heat shrink as well as spools of wiring loom me and my friend did a really clean job wiring an rb nissan harness into a 240sx and were also doing an sr20 s14 wiring harness rite now. The only advantage of paying a shop to do the harness is knowing that it will be a turn key swap and should fire up on the first start. In regards to using the 7m electronics, the 7m cps will not fit the 2jz vvti and there is a reason toyota switched the electronics on the 2jz the 7m stuff is outdated crap from the 80's. If I didn't have the 2j harness and ecu i would maybe jerry rig it for a temporary solution but it seems like it would be more of a headache then splicing a few plugs for the 2j harness.

I really do hope I can make a write up for this swap and help save fellow enthusiats money. DR tweak wants about 7-8hrs labor at $90 an hour + afew weeks and i have to pay shipping cost that could buy me a 1jz bellhousing and clutch with the moeny saved.

AquaX, here is the GTE VVT-i wiring information. Maybe it will help you a little bit.

Your best bet is to scour the internet for the pinout of the engine model you've listed, for the body plugs also. Then to find the pinout for your year Supra, and combine them.

Most of the F&F crazed people who buy supras because they were in the film, and then want "2JZ no shit" will find a way.

And you CAN run a 2JZ on 7M electronics..

I didn't say you can't, I said you cant run a VVTI motor off 7m electronic as the 7m cps will not fit the vvti head. If I wanted to do that I would need a 93 sc300 head. A wise supra tuner told me this "running a 2jz off 7m electronics is the equivalent to powering a space shuttle with coal."

Why in the HELL would you want to run a 2J off of 7M electronics?! Just because you can does not mean it needs to be done. An example would be running a full race built 2J on a stock CT-26 - Doable but completely pointless
