Mteele, werew you running an 1jz auto or manual ECU. I have a 5spd car with an auto ecu. How do u bypass the check engine light(if u got one) from the ecu trying to find the absent A/T trans.
Also did you guys solve the tach issue?

yea..it really sucks what happened to his car. im in miami. i talked someone at jhot and they told me they should have some 1jz's in at the end of the month..i have the cash in hand so as soon as i get one of em ill be doing this swap too...keeping it all stock for now...so im just gonna order the 8920 and try hooking it up since its only like 50 bucks....dosent look too complicated...just not sure if the tachs in our cars are voltage triggered or current triggered cuz you have to wire it differently...

So sputter right before the tranny shifts when on fulll throttle people thought was boost cut and/or fuel cut. since my swap did it even stock I'm thinking its the US auto transmission ecu that is causing it. So I asked my friends in Japan to ship me a soarer transmission ecu. I will keep you posted on this issue.

there are a bunch of people selling soarer auto trans in the states if that will help with shipping considering its pretty big and heavy. is the auto trans ecu separate from the main ecu? i thought it was the same ecu that controls everything else that controls the tranny.

I think I figured out why my car was smoking and its not doing it anymore. I pulled all the pipes off yesterday and checked the play and it was little to none. But as of right now, they're working fine. Ill pm you if that changes. I might want them in a month or so just to have..
