Installed new ECU today, car wouldn't run. Took ECU out seen that it is for a 2jzFE reinstalled old one, went into limp/learn mode for a while, now she running back to her old self...... Gotta wait till next week before the correct ECU arrives. Dang it, I was so excited to see what she can do with a good ECU, I hope I'm not let down again.

Move my fuse box behind the drivers seat, rewired the inside and outside of the car, shaved some more weight, removed sound deadening material, and prepping to finish the rest of the 8pt roll cage. Busy day, clean engine bay, and so far about 35-40lbs of junk removed.

Did the trunk lift supports. Made a video, they go fast, my other lift supports(same product #) from the same company didn't work like this in my 92 SC...perhaps the gas inside is stronger when installed in the cold?

Headlights version 3.2 completed!!!! First time since March no duct tape holding them together (used RTV in the clip spots). I'll post pics later, I used chrome paint to help people see the turn signals and added a few more leds to complete the look. Also spent an hour polishing the lenses again, they look better but not done yet.

In other news, I mailed the 2j ECU I got on accident back to seller and he shipped my 1uz ECU and even refunded shipping to me bad timing but the transaction seems to be going well

Picked up some Z Anniversary's, pretty good condition and the tires were like new. Good price too.
Installed but forgot to take a picture before it got dark. Here's a teaser till tomorrow.

Car wouldn't turn over today waiting for my girlfriend to come out of the store while flipping through the stations on the radio. Just clicking while cranking...battery crapped out on me with no signs of weakness whatsoever. Tried for 15 giving it a jump and nothing... I had another battery in my crap SC, popped that in, it started up barely. So I got a Duralast Gold 24F-DLG, cost $130, put it in, and started up instantly. This thing is rated pretty strong and has a 5 year warranty so it should be pretty good for my audio upgrade as well compared to the crap $40 battery that was in there. Thankfully I wasn't far from home. Also detailed the car, used Lexol on everything.
