Well finished the swap, but I have no power whatsoever, only interior lights and door chime work when key is n the ignition that's it, the motor set is out of a soarer 1jz vvti auto into my 95 sc300 5mt using my w58. I'm using the auto soarer ecu. Now do I still have to cut any wires or ground anything out? Or is it just plug and play since its out of a soarer?

I need to know where mrel from the engine harness blue/orange wire goes to in the fuse box? And both orange and black wires where do they connect to? Then there's 2 thin white wires one has a red stripe, the other has a green stripe

you asked a whole lot of questions in that first post...
how much work have you done? it's definitely not plug-n-play, but SC300 to Soarer is pretty close. what year soarer is it out of?
you definitely need to jumper the NSS so you can crank the engine.
what exactly does "no power whatsoever" mean? post some more detail if you want help, man. your post reads "OMG BRO I GOT DIS 1JZVVTI WUT DO I DO???"

Get a factory wiring Manual for your year car.
Get A multimeter, set it to ohm.
Go through things like temp/oil/power stuff
All of the pins are labeled the same, so find them on your vvti harness and make them go to where they need to be matched on the body side of things.
Pro tip: all the important stuff on the 2 plugs on the right hand side of the ecu should be the same pinout as non vvti 1j (+b, igsw, batt, w, te1, mrel, etc)

All I did was extend the body plugs that's all, I I left the ecu out by the motor untill I get her fired up, just incase I have to move anything around. The motor is out of a soarer vvti I think 98-99 from what the ecu number showed.

I have no power in my car no lights on my dash except the door open symbol and door chime when key is in, does nothing, there is that blue/orange wire off of the vvti motor going towards the fuse box that I have no clue to what wire it goes to, then there's the 2 black/orange wires off the fuse box that don't match the vvti harness

so theres harnesses off of the ecu where do they go or are they not used? when i got the motor the fuse box harness was already cut and the horn as well i guess. most of the wires matched up, except for the 3 wires coming off of the motor which are the blue/orange, white/red, white/green. so i cut off the old 2 harnesses off of my 2jzge from the fuse box, and theres 4 wires that dont match up with the new motor, which are the 2 black/orange wires, and the 2 solid white wires. where do they connect?

120 amp alternator fuse blew out, I touched the terminals together and I heard the starter, goin to autozone, now what do I do about the ecu since it tries to start as soon as I put the battery cable on
