no but it will be going in the car very soon this weekend hopefully im just trying to figure out the axle issue, im running an e56 transmission and idk what axles i can use.

Posted by: H8TRAIN Nov 26, 2013 - 4:17 PM

Can you tell me a little about the wiring? It's reported to be very easy but I can't find info anywhere about what exactly (however little) needs to be changed.

Posted by: richee3 Nov 29, 2013 - 1:14 PM

I know you've got a clean chassis and some mods done. Post some pictures!

Posted by: mkernz22 Nov 29, 2013 - 1:19 PM

You need to post some pictures up so we can see what you have, otherwise we really cannot help all that much!
Is it the Red Top 3SGE with the VVT-i or just the regular 3sge?

Also, the wiring is very simple from what I heard. All you have to do is splice a couple wires.
Richee3 and Batman722 would know what needs to be done for wiring

Posted by: H8TRAIN Dec 8, 2013 - 3:39 PM

Bravo! If you could tell me a bit about the wiring that would be great! All I've seen is that it's easy. Did you have to make any changes at all? Or did the 3sge harness plug right up?

Posted by: njccmd2002 Dec 8, 2013 - 4:27 PM

did u ever get it running, sorry i was not of great help that looks very good. you killed the mojo when you asked about no hair jokes, lol....

Posted by: mi645 Dec 8, 2013 - 5:53 PM

I will tell u everything but I'm at the junk yard and I fount a Lexus es250 v6 with a 5 SPF manual are these the axles I need?

Posted by: njccmd2002 Dec 8, 2013 - 6:17 PM

is the s54 axles dont fit, guess those are ur options, altough you have the cut axles, maybe you can hybrid them. the E56 tranny is quite rare..

Posted by: mi645 Dec 8, 2013 - 6:45 PM

Well this Lexus has the e56f trans basically same with no LSD and the hub is 5x100 hub

Posted by: njccmd2002 Dec 8, 2013 - 7:21 PM

what year lexus, and can you post a pic when ur done please.... of the axles, i have a theory that they can be mixed with beams axles, since the beam cages are different

Posted by: mi645 Dec 8, 2013 - 8:01 PM

They are Allen key style I don't think they will work with beams unless the beams axle the outer joint is with the axle
Same with the teeth on the gears must be the same

Posted by: BonzaiCelica Dec 9, 2013 - 3:30 AM

he's talking about the 88-90 ES250 the square looking first gen es class. also the v6 camry from the late 80's came with manual as well. but both have E52 transmission.

you can see proof over the net that v6 toyota had e52. e56 wasn't introduced till the 94 celica. so although they make look similar they have little differences. you can see from pics here in diagrams...

Posted by: mi645 Dec 9, 2013 - 3:34 AM

They are identical almost, but te axles will fit on both sides it's the overall length that might be an issue not so simple to bolt on but at least it's a start

Posted by: mi645 Dec 9, 2013 - 11:54 PM

Ok motor is in the car it starts when I jump it from the starter to relay but when I flip the key I'm not getting any crank when I try to start it from inside the car, ideas?

Posted by: mi645 Jan 22, 2014 - 12:33 PM

update- figured out starter wire issue thru the harness repin 1 wire to get tr car to start from ignition key, will post pics later on, also for beams users, question is how to get connection to ur obd2 port? mine isnt hooked up i believe so i cant read anything thru the port or communicate with ecu thru tr torque pro apps.
ideas?

Posted by: njccmd2002 Jan 22, 2014 - 12:36 PM

i never did mine.
