Amazing work.

As for my exhaust, I just made a $30.00 adapter to mate the BEAMS b-pipe to my original exhaust.

The open wiring harness pictures brings back memories of mine

Yes, I hope to be at the meet this summer. (work permitting)

You gonna have the car done for the meet?

The plan is to have it back on the road late may early June - that'll give me a couple months to iron out the bugs and get it ready for the long trip out to BC in August. thumbsup.gif

So far so good!

To be honest, I almost didn't want to go through with the swap looking at that ****ing rats nest of wiring... LOL. I'm so glad I was able to find a whole one instead.biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Can anyone tell me the differences between these two?



Your welcome mate....also the ECU i sent you was either from a 96 curren, or celica...not sure of the celica year though, but they had the same part numbers....

FYI, do you have a separate? The coil is separate from the distributor unlike the 5sfe, also doesnt bolt the engine bay so it most likely didnt come with one.

Pft, nicely done Ferd. laugh.gif


So - I had to hook up a battery directly to my driverside window motor on Sunday. Long story short, I didn't roll up the driverside window prior to starting the engine swap; so for the past few months the shell has been sitting on my driveway with a huge piece of cardboard taped over the open window and then a car cover, followed by 2 tarps... some friends needed some parts that I just happened to keep in the car when I "sealed" it up, so this weekend I tore it all off and didn't want to put it all back on again and there was bad weather coming THAT night... kindasad.gif

*breathe* ...whew!

So I hooked up a battery with the help of "sodap0p" and we were able to get the window up. Yay!

Tonight when the weather was decent I put the door card back on and installed the TRD (knockoff, doesn't bother me) shift knob...

The knob needs to be polished (yeah, I said it laugh.gif ) and the interior is a mess from the swap right now. I also took a pic of the 7th gen steering wheel to add to this archive. tongue.gif

Not much, but enjoy!

Does anyone know where I could find an aftermarket charcoal canister? I'd like to dress up the engine bay a little bit with one... but can't seem to find any.

I've tried Summit and a few other places, but maybe I'm using the wrong keywords?

LMK

Took off the oil pan today to reveal this:



Most likely from sitting too long.

Tonight I was able to get the oil pan, the distributor assembly and the valve cover off.

Oil pump looks to be in decent shape:



Look at the special treat that welcomed me when I took the Valve cover off:


CLEANLINESS!!! YAY!

Kurt/Brent; it was such a relief when I saw the internals... I was so happy!

Picked this up off the Calgary Kijiji today:



Dirt cheap. The guy was just trying to get rid of it... sold his MR2 awhile ago and just had it lying around. Pity. biggrin.gif

Took the water pump off:



Whats the best way to remove the rust deposits from the coolant lines, etc while the engine is OUT of the car?

This rust deposit shouldn't concern me too much, right? I already know the engine had been sitting for awhlie...

THOUGHTS??
