I'm also working on the body harness connections from the 2JZGE harness to the MA70 plugs behind the glove box. IF anyone has a good 87TurboAuto pinout for that big Yellow 26pin plug.. PM me. ( found info for a 1991 pinout on Supra.NL website, but I need the 1987 pinout)

I think I will give him a shout. I hate to have to pay hundreds of dollars for something I can solder up in an afternoon :) But granted, I will consider any option he may suggest.

OK got my head all reassembled.... new valve seals, and a nice cleanup. I also painted a few shortblock brackets and wire brushed the crap out of some cast iron parts and the water pump. WOW tomorrow I will be putting this biatch back together with the ARP studs.

So I have successfully swapped to the 2JZ PS lines, since the 2JZ and 7M have the PS pumps on opposite ends of engine bay. Made much more sense this way. I am also going to remove the AC lines and condensor from the engine bay, as I dont think I will ever use A/C in a targa chassis. I will begin that removal process once I figure out how to remove this front bumper.

Instead of buying a new PS cooler... I think I may use the Auto Tranny cooler lines inputs on the radiator and route my PS fluid though the OEM radiator and back out to simplify things. Anyone done this yet?

So all my lines and accessories are mow connected. I have also replaced the rusty header panel frame with a cleaned up and primered replacement. I also took the grinder to the bumper and removed all the rust and then lightly filled and sanded it then also primered it. Now I am just trying to sort out the wiring to get the car started.

Summer has been crazy......

So I was attempting to wire up the 2JZGE Stock ECU into the MA70 chassis harness, but I decided to table that idea (since this will be a hobby car/Track car) also, so that I can eliminate the rev limiter. I ended up buying a Stinger from Aaron@ Driftmotion. I have since stripped the entire engine harness off the motor and rewrapped and installed a custom harness. I also removed the stock 2JZGE Distributor and I replaced it with the 7MGTE CPS. (which is what is triggering my Stinger) In addition to that change I also installed IS300 coilpacks and the DH61 IS300 igniter. I have wired up the fuel pump to be triggered by the Stinger. I now have to validate that I am getting a crank signal. Once thats done I will begin the neatening process.

I have identified
coilpack1 to be the unit that installed on plug#6 and wire runs to plug#1
coilpack2 to be the unit that installed on plug#2 and wire runs to plug#5
coilpack3 to be the unit that installed on plug#4 and wire runs to plug#3

The firing order of the 2JZ-GE is 1-5-3-6-2-4 from what I have read on ClubLexus.

I plan to run the DH61 outputs...

C1 --> Coilpack1
C2 --> Coilpack2
C3 --> Coilpack3
T1 --> Stinger IGN1
T2 --> Stinger IGN2
T3 --> Stinger IGN3
GND --> Ground
B+ --> Switched 12v
TAC --> possibly to gauge cluster or Stinger
IGF ------ NOT USED

I plan to run the Fuel injectors (high Impedance stock SC300 injectors)
Inj1 & Inj6 --> Stinger #23 Yellow (primary Inj)
Inj2 & Inj5 --> Stinger #11 White (primary Inj)
Inj3 & Inj4 --> Stinger #12 Red/Blk (Sec/prim Inj)

At TDC on the crank and cam marks, the CPS seems lined up

If I am looking at the TEWD correctly...
1 - NE - Trigger - #8 on Stinger
2 - G1 - Cam Signal TDC - #20 on Stinger
3 - G- - Ground - #21 on Stinger
4 - G2 - Cam Sign 6TDC - NOT USED

Strange thing.... No matter what wire configuration I place on that green plug, I can not get the RPM tuning needle to respond in the STinger Tuning Software during crank. Anyone else have this issue?

Here is a look at the almost finished product - if only I could get a crank signal.

Here is a picture of the Stinger Crank trigger Harness... I test all three wires for continuity from ends to ECU plug and they are good.

Here is a picture of everything else on the Tuning Software. I seem to be getting feedback for everyting except RPM while cranking.

I am wondering if I somehow have to incorporate that unused #6-TDC wire from the CPS?

I am gonna use Shaeffs diagram to set the timing manually since I cant get a Stinger signal to fire the plugs to use a timing light.
