sweet deal, sorry about the water, happened to my car during sandy...

good luck with the swap, im lookin to do the same but i love my 1uz

 

Motor is in and it runs!

Except, it only turns over when connecting two of the transmission wires even if the key is out of the car, but not when the key turns. Any ideas?

edit: got a couple ideas from some threads on here. gonna try to get it starting properly tomorrow.

 

Busted up my finger pretty good swapping over the power steering lines. Build is on hold for a second.

 

Ouch it will make you appreciate the build alot more buddy haha. Looking great!

 

Yeah, i'm a little bummed. But i'm still making a little progress while I try to find an intercooler.

 

Not sure if outside links are allowed here, but here's a little update on it.

Nice build man! Definitely another one making me contemplate a 1J. Can't wait to see it done.

 

Music to my ears, first test run sounds of swapped 1 jay

 

Thanks guys. All that's left to do is find an intercooler and work out any kinks. If anyone knows someone trying to sell an FMIC send them my way.

 

Bought a universal FMIC kit, and pretty much have the entire turbo side plumbed up, but can anyone explain how I can relocate/ remove these power steering and AC lines? I can't really see any way to mount piping through these things. Also, pictures of your IC setups would be much appreciated.

 

Car runs and does skids.

 

Looks like someone is having some fun! Congrats on getting your swap in too!

Congrats on getting it completed! Looking good.

 

Here's a little preview of what's new, and what's to come.
Got the single exhaust 3" straight pipe to 4" tip all finished up, and picked up a replica vertex kit.
Now I have to glass over the passenger exhaust exit.
Already bought the paint and should be looking pretty sweet in the next couple weeks
