LOL!!! Man I wish I can be there to see his face. I love watching people the first time and they have the worried stunned look on their face.
Mark the only reason I take pleasure is because I have been there with the worried face on stereos and then ECU. I know you will do fine...The amount of data you have here is great and now it us up to you sir. Atleast you do not have anyone yelling mean things as you turn the key

I dont think it will be any trouble now. It should work as it should. If it runs, I will be running up and down the street without a hood or front bumper.

DO NOT use "Octane" Booster" as it does not boost octane. They usually juts have a bunch of dyes in them and such.
Go to a paint store and buy Toluene or xylene, these have been proven to actually raise octane depending on the ratio.
If the gas is that old, prime the fuel pump with the return line in a bucket or gas can, and put in some fresh stuff.
Again, at least you lucky bastards can actually get 93 octane!

More updates. I tried to trouble shoot the wiring mess for sometime with the help of Cartmill. I ended running two seperate relays by the AEM. One is for the AEM and the other for the coils, ignitors, and injectors. I did this by tapping the switched 12 volts on by the IGN fuse in the driver side kick panel. Ran a wire from the battery for the both relays to supply constant 12 volts, then grounded them to a bolt nearby. If anyone is wanting to this, on the relay, 87 gets constant 12 volts form battery, 86 gets switched from IGN fuse, 30 gets power to the source, 85 is ground. Installed the shifter, added 3.4 quarts of fluid with the Redline, the shifter ****, stereo with nav, and a couple of panels.
The car does start and run, but immediately dies. But hen starts right up. I think it might be in the IACV. I still need someone to remove theirs and tell me what all goes inside theirs. I cant find anything on this 1JZ. I couldn't have done without the patient and understanding Cartmill... Another thing about the R154, I installed the new MC bushing and washer, and the shifter still has alot of play. I drove 2 other cars with the R154, and they have play also. I was thinking this would eliminate all the play. Does the 4 inch extension have anything to do with this play... Especially in 1st and 3rd. I actually put it in, and then unistalled thinking I had done something wrong...
The DP is being custom made. The flanges came in and money well spent. Hopefully this will be on by Tuesday, exhaust with gaskets installed, finishing putting panels back on, tidying up loose ends, AND POST A START UP VIDEO WITH SOME STREET PULLS.
When you use the AEM, the fuel pump is triggered by a ground, NOT by 12 volts. All I had to do, was extend my current ground.

On the side of the trans where the shifter goes inside the trans there are 2 bolts one on the left and the other on the right , behind those bolts you have a ball and the spring . the springs are probably worn or lost tension.

Your car should run without an IAC valve , i never use an iac valve on all my na-t setup on ems.
I bet it's your TPS that need to be set, not the iac valve .

I gotcha. If I didn't have to take the darn tranny out again to reach those, I would check it and fix it. This thing has way toooooo much play for me... I am assuming these cannot be tightened up outside the tranny, under the car?
Quick, you are prolly right on the adjustment of the TPS. As soon as I get the DP, I will fire this thing up for good and troubleshoot the small things.
