aristo swap help!!??

Yes I mean supra Tt gte water pump. Not Aristo. You want a clutch fan setup. Interesting about the power steering pump. I've always used the gte pump as its already attached and does not have the reservoir bolted to it.

The alternator is actually the same pretty much, sometimes the plugs are different.
power steering is the same, there is a union nipple and oring bolted to the top of the gte one instead of the reservoir on the GE. bottom half is the same.
starter is basically the same.
a/c is basically the same.
alot of stuff is basically the same. use whichever ones work or looks newer.

Lol@tweaked. Good luck with that one. I'd go with panicwire.co if you wanted something nice, proper, and guaranteed to not make you wanna pull your hair out. Tweaked is 50/50, a horrible risk IMO. Cam sucks.

I just finished up my swap look at my build thread starting on Page 4.....This will give you an idea of how the swap should be done.....You definately want to get a new oil pump and water pump....replace as much things as you can while the engine is out of the car......with an JDM engine you have no idea how long it has been sitting.....Good Luck

Apparently hit or miss. Also, I've seen him (cam, tweak tech) multiple times post info that is incorrect which is simple, 1st year rookie stuff. Or makes stuff seem way more complicated than it really is which leads me to believe he's using the fear tactic to drum up business, or doesn't really know what he's doing.
One of my favorite recent examples is I believe user obeewon who paid a grand and his harness had simple first year mistakes in it, and couldn't even get it resolved through cam because of lack of contact. I've personally known several people tht had rookie *** mistakes made in their harness that leads to hair pulling or more down time. If you guys don't know about Mark Panic at panicwire, you should. Dude was at PSI in Portland for years, has turned out a good chunk of the formula D cars here in the states, and actually knows his ****. If I wasn't capable of handling my own projects this is the only way I'd go. I've seen the work first hand, and know many many people who have been 100% satisfied with his stuff. Seriously. Mark Panic at panicwire. Do a search, spend the cash, enjoy the smile that comes with hearig it pop off with no issues and go.
Or take the 50/50 with someone that just really puts on the front that they have a clue. This is the reason I generally go behind every post he makes and poke holes in it. Which I find funny because this stuff is something that I learned on my own through being a broke ****, and shouldn't be able to do to someone that learned this stuff through the original Dr.tweak (josh?) who was revered as pretty much the original Toyota swap wiring go to guy. Sure I go about this in an ******* manner, its the only way I know how. I don't sugar coat ****. The world isn't sugar coated. You guys wanna take a chance on headaches, fine. I just feel that from what tweaktech (cam) posts on here, he's a joke. And I say what I say hoping people don't end up with a headache.
