Did you ever get that dent out of the header?

[theianmonster]

I'm going to be doing this same swap into my X7, just need to get it running and driving withh the 7MGE first.

Good project.

Rad. Why not stock management?

[jzxseven]

push: believe me i'd like to keep it the stock green, but its hard to find a bodyshop that does spot on paint matches. i'd be better off finding the paint p/n from toyota and finding a can for myself.

mranlet: i worked the dent out a little TINY bit, but there was a difference. i got tired of leaning my body on it while it was on my porch hand rail and pushing the flange down, while trying to hammer at the same time. I did end up getting the two flanges to line up thought, withh a little persuasion from my foot and arms.

aphxero: i'm not using stock management because of the drive by wire, obd2 bullshit. that and so it'll be easier to wire it up to my car. i don't know what i'm going to be doing withh vvti anymore, before i found out its not like VVT i was going to use an msd activation swithch, but i dont know anymroe since vvti is constantly variable and i can't find IN DEPTH INFO on how it works.

use a JZX100 ECU. it doesn't use drive by wire, but still has VVTi and the correct waste spark ignition system that 2JZ needs.

you'll run a little rich for a while until you get that turbo on there through.

[jzxseven]

dope. thanks for the reply, will the jzx100 ecu plug into my harness? does it matter what year jzx100 the ecu is from? and finally, is it also obd2? thanks.

EDIT: forgot to ask, will it matter if the ecu is auto or manual?

[brian]

nah, it's JDM so no OBD2 crap.

JZX100 1JZ-GTE ecu from any 96-99 chaser/mark II etc

i'll research the pins for you. i think when i was looking into doing this to remove my drive by wire in my IS i found a US ECU plug that will work withh the JZX100 ecu, then i'd just have to re-pin. wasn't too bad honestly.

wow thanks a lot bro, please lmk about it asap because i'm highly considering this option. even though i have the megasquirt, i'll save it for my 1J block. fuck trying to tune my car right now, i just want to drive it already. If you can find all that old info, I'd appreciate it. Thanks again.

[jzxseven]

some more useless pictures.





BTW, brian where you able to find the plug info for the jzx100 ecu?

[mranlet]

Is the wired throttle only ECU output, or there a redundancy TPS on it that sends signal back into the ECU? I'm sure there's an easy way to circumroute drive by wire...

[miles]

i see megasquirt!!


good shit

[jzxseven]
