First of all, ecu will need getting immobilizer off so it would start at all, and stripping unnecessary emissions things. If you won't use factory 1ur transmission, that would be another major problem for you (loss of torque due to a/t limp mode)
Also, you will struggle to get instrument panel...
You partly get it wrong. Certain malfunction may lead to pinging and no code, while some other malfunction will throw a code and force ignition to full retard. It might as well be just one cylinder with excessive carbon buildup, or intake air leak, or clogged injector etc
So use your scan tool...
Sure thing, I like when it's not only me who can see review
At the same time I don't like throwing parts at problem. ACIS control solenoid and knock sensors are known weak parts of 15+ year old 1UZ VVTI and 3UZ engines but I wouldn't recommend to blindly replace either of them. Instead I'd...
There was indeed some headroom in vvti department , to swap slightly better mid range torque for slightly worse emissions due to less EGR. Glad you noticed that
Hi! you may contact me through the website
1 afr does almost nothing to the power, but it can be tweaked for better mpg. afr also includes fail-safe modes such as extra enrichment per EGT, optimal cat.converter temp, etc etc (cats are supposed to be off)
vvti and ignition can be adjusted for...
Any 3uz ecu is reprogrammable. You can get either one and reprogram it to whatever you need (i.e. take SC430 part , reprogram it and you have GS430). Sump is interchangeable with 1uz (one set is aluminum base + steel bowl + pick up line)
As far as I know mot rules, you just need to be on the...
Hi!
If you're not overloading it, 6 spd is the way to go. Wideband knock sensors, newer ecu, 2x overdrive gears
I'd recommend to remove immobilizer, without too many details for now
Cruise control: just needs additional analogue speed signal, and control stalk which is basically a bunch of...
I can help with immobilizer and 3uz ecu reprogramming (emissions off, remap, speed limit off, conversion to m/t if requred)
As well as signal converter for instr. panel and a/c system
Immobilizer, definitely yes, but may take a while
Auto transmission, yes if it was 4 speed A340 type
Cats and sub o2 sensors - need to have a look at ecu board, most likely, yes
a/c compressor, modify control valve or supply any 12V pwm signal.
Can be anything
The vvti are known to sometimes have faulty knock sensors and not set corresponding code.
However you are likely to have many problems at once
Buy cheap diag.tool like ELM327 ver.1.5 (strictly 1.5) and ELMSCan Toyota app for android phones. That's absolute minimum setup that...
