yeah, theres tons of room in front of the motor, but the mounts are made to set it as far forward as possible already. there may be a way to get it in there, i dont know yet. for the first test fit, i took the tranny off and dropped it straight in. so it may fit better with the tranny on...

well, its hitting pretty solidly. I'm going to try to sneak it under the brake booster and see if that helps. i'll get a picture tomorrow, and it'll make more sense. i dont think denting it would be a wise option, but swaping it may be. I'm taking a night off tonight to catch up on the stuff...

no, i'm using the stock lexus tranny. mostly because it mounts to the motor, lol. but im thinking a sc400 ds might fit. if not, then i'll figure something out. oh, i got the motor mounted up tonight. i havent measures the crossmember clearance, but i know its not hitting. unfortunately, the...

for now the stock automatic. i just need to get it mounted and see how long i need it to be. i'm hoping that the ds out of a stock auto supra will be long enough, but thas just hoping. Eventually i plan to swap to manual, but thats after the car is running reliably.

ITS ALIVE! i adjusted the cam timing (took 2 tries), earthed the computer, and it started right up. What a sound! tomorrow the motor comes out too put in the mounts i got from cjsupra. after that, i need to find a driveshaft, a throttle cable, clean up the wiring a bit, and i should be all...

i actually sneaked a check before i left, and the cams are off, but not by much (1-2 teeth). i think it didnt run because the computer wasnt grounded. that sound resonable?

yeah, that was part of the problem. theres a notch, a tab, and in my case, a paint mark on my cam gears. I'm also used to the cam gears pointing straight up (7m motors). so i'll see just how bad it is when i get back in town..

ok, so i got the spark plug wires correct, and still nothing. now i'm thinking that the cams are out of time. with the crank at the 0 mark, the cams do't seem to be pointing anywhere in particular. i replaced the belt back before i found this site, and it looks like i got it wrong...

well, i tried re wiring the plugs to make sure. i assume by left bank you mean looking at the motor, so the passenger side. and what really threw me off was the fact that both terminals on the injectors have power, is that normal? of course the other possibility is that the mechanical timing...

some new issues. so for testing purposes, i hot wired the fuel pump and turned it over. nothing. do a little checking, no power to the ignitors, etc. So i check my wires and hook one more to power, and now i have power at the coils, ignitors, and BOTH sides of the injectors... so now im...

Ok, making progress! i now have a working starter (thanks cjsupra90) and power to the computer, harness, injectors, etc. my current hang up is the fuel pump. On the zfe, there is a fuel pump computer, on the supra theres not. i know which wires on the supra make the pump go, but i dont know...

thanks for all the help. i'm going to get back to it tonight. If im still stuck, i'll take some pictures and be back :)

So after a (too) long financial break from this project, im back at the same spot. I've got the alternator wiring taken care of, it was rather straighforward. But other than that, i'm pretty far lost. I've tried using wiring diagrams from both to find matching wires, but have only found a...

the 440c ijectors are not a direct swap, due to the impedence... as Lex already pointed out. the 315cc's are a good replacement though, if you have them cleaned.

i finally got my 1u into the car, now i just need to figure out how to get it running. i've still got the original fues box in the supra, which i see in other folks' completed swap, but i thinkim in over my head. If anyone can help me out, i'd love to hear this puppy run.

it turns out that soarer (sc400 for U.S. apps) headers will fit in the MA70 chassis. i'm not familiar with the GA70 designation, but if its a Mk3 Supra, it should be the same.

um, well, there arent a lot of us out there... my 1uz isnt in the car yet, but after a few test fits, custom looks to be your best plan.

just an fyi, the CRS kit is only 1100 Australian, and is what i'll be using for my swap.

Ok, so i talked to the guys at CRS about their bellhousing. Turns out they are making a complete kit to do this swap, including:bellhousing, flywheel, clutch kit, spigot bearing, thrust bearing, pivot ball, clutch fork, release bearing, pushrod, and slave cylinder. Price is reasonable, at $1100...

awesome, thanks.
