project 1mz celica, 94 gt starting a new life Options

[kurt95gt]

Im fairly sure thats my main problem. The misfire seems to normally only show up on one side or the other from what i read on other forums through google so im not as worried plus the p0300 is a random code witch means it could be happening on all 6cyl but its showing the codes for the worse set

Im going to look into buying one of those bluetooth adapters
That one in the link looks good but i didnt see a lexus or a camry with a 3.0 in the list of cars

As long as you dont take a 10lb hammer and dynamite to this car out of frustration it will be all the more loved by you when its finished. Plus you will know everything about how to fix this engine in the future. You'll be an EFI fixin machine by the time its all finished

[kurt95gt]

Well i got one ordered now lol

[kurt95gt]

95celicast- do i need the pro version or do you just use torque lite?
lmk i figure it that setup works on your 1mz it should work on mine

[95CelicaST]

I went for the pro version - it allows you to set up multiple sets of displays, and I think data logging is only an option on the pro version. I really liked it. Can't use it now with the new ECU.

pay the $5 and get the torque pro. it will open up all of the options ....


and as for the adapter.. its but only a converter to take the signals and convert it to bluetooth.. and the torque app does the rest.. from what i know of the torque app (i just ordered a toyota 22pin OBDI to OBDII harness, and one of the ELM 327 V1.5... hoping it works on my OBDI ST) the developer is constantly pushing patches and upgrades to the app.. ( a good thing) and as long as you have an OBDII motor/ECU you should be good.. if not then you are out $25... IMO a $25 risk with good reviews, is a risk worth taking, over a known (min) $200 investment.. especial when considering how many times you are going to use the tool (a few to diagnose) or the App (alot to monitor engine vitals)

[95CelicaST]

Plus you can grab a vent-mount phone holder and set up the display in the app to feed you realtime data as you drive. Who doesn't like more information?

I had one screen showing all of my fuel trims - short term and long term, one with speed, RPMs, vac, coolant temp, etc. Definitely one of my better investments. I still use it for friends/family if/when they throw a CEL.

[kurt95gt]

Ok ill get the pro version when the adapters shows up
Figure it was worth asking before i spent the money

[mandrek]

no prob bro... thats what we (the community) are here for Right?

[kurt95gt]

Yep an i couldnt find a better group to ask even if i tried

We're here to help you justify spending your money

I think Bitter has about $200 of persuasion in my V6.

[Box]

That's ok, I can forgive you I suppose.

Yea it sucks but its really my own fault
I did all the research for a 3vz an ended up buying a 1mz basically by mistake so im done my best to make it work
an for no longer than ive really been working on it im happy with the progress

[kurt95gt]

So i had a free minute before i left for work so o snapped a couple pics






Nothing special but its been awhile. Since i posted any pics
figured while there both outside id snap some pics of them an the next( non 6gc ) project
Wish my parts woukd show up

So it's just one fuel pressure regulator for both banks? Hopefully that solves your issues. Once you get the rear bank running right, it'll be a 500% improvement to the car. I'd love to see this thing at the meet next weekend.
