Progress ! *Whew* I survived the internals of a toyota Automatic transmission... Highlights of the day: I find it amazing how different this color looks in different lighting. It should be fun to match up if I ever need to. -B

Wow, that's slick. Move the clutch and shifting to the transfer case. Way to think outside the box :) I'd love to see the rest of the engineering of the vehicle. :) Dean: the engine is mounted in their front rear and the gearbox drives a front and rear differential.

Progress! AC lines are done, I'll probably have the fuel lines done today also. PS lines are going to be a bit tricky as the Rack & pinion input shaft/knuckle doesn't leave much room for a set of headers. In any case, it's comming out here in a few hours so that I can finish cleaning off...

There are a couple on ebay. One was brand new, one had a few plugs snipped off of it. Search words were "supra wiring harness" -B

To summarize, I have a Yellow 2002 Sportcross, I'm installing a 1999 GS400 engine into it. While doing this, I am also repainting the car to a better color of yellow. I started disassembling the car for paint and the engine swap earlier today. I only had a few hours, so I had to stop before I...

yup, see my note in your other thread. -B

I have one "in the mail" to me. I'm not sure how fast I can get it to you as it's not to me yet. I'll try to update you once I receive it. In fact, you can have the upper portion of it, as it's not worth the shipping costs in scrap metal to ship it back to me. Let me know if you dont'...

Before you go messing with the mechanicals of the valve body, consider an electronic tuning of your line pressures and shift points. The IS300 guys have had good results with this unit: http://www.powertraincontrolsolutions.com/content-4.html Until I break something, this is all I plan on...

Neutral is a good idea... I wish I had thought about that with my V6 MR2 conversions. I suspect that the ECU is still going to freak out about an open circuit with the shift solenoids. 10ohm, 25 watt resistors work pretty well for solenoid substitutes. Toyota speed sensor signals are...

I completely understood what you wrote. Those sheets are in fact galvanized. I was responding to Jibby's comment about the copper/galvanized and used of diaelectric unions. His concerns are really not applicable here as Lextreme wasn't looking to sandwich both galvanized steel and copper...

I'm pretty sure it would work. Part numbers are different in the parts catalog, however when looking over the wiring diagrams and two harnesses I have here, they are identical. (98 & 99 GS400 harness) Do you have a work around for the imobilizer? You'll need a key or send the ECU in to...

In this case, the galvanized paint wouldn't last. It'd burn off the metal in a matter of hours. I think the debate was between the cheap (and available) galvanized steel vs the use of copper. Lextreme: is your problem a common one? I have debated having turbo gaskets made from copper...

I was going to mention, simply sleeve/bore the engine to the 3uz bore if you want the additional displacement. The cost of this would be less than the difference of the engine price. The cams are the same. The block is near identical.

If you have two flanges, I would clamp them together to form a copper sheet sandwich, drill holes, bolt them together and then work around your copper as to not distort/wrinkle the soft material. Also, a belt sander or grinder disc works well at making sure your flange is perfectly flat after...

I think so also. Unless they have proof of scamming, they did more harm to the community than good. I also have money out with him for the tranny adapter.
