My STA wire goes to the ECU. It has 11V (not 12) as soon as you turn on the main power. I ran it through a relay, but as I understand it, it should only get 12V when cranking. Let me see what happens when I connect it to the start button like that.

I have a decent voltmeter, and yeah I think I have 12v to STA as soon as the main switch is powered on. I will get out there in a few hours and see. I thought I did it like the book diagrams, but it's been so many weeks, I can't remember.

I think my STA pin has 12v to it. I'll have to check, I'm fairly sure it does. I'm fairly certain it's been that way since the beginning. I will look into it. Would that put it into limp mode? I will begin there. As always, thanks George!

Hi guys, I have a question. My car is running and shifting and that's a giant feat in itself because it's a backyard swap. (the Maserati Biturbo Swap) It seems like it's down on power. It seems like it should be much stronger than it is. Perhaps it is in limp mode but I have no way of finding...

PM me your address and I will send you a few souvenirs from the USA.

As it turned out, there were three wires not connected. George and a few other people pointed me in the right direction. It's now shifting perfectly. Awesome! Thanks guys, you're the best! So as night fell, the grill was loaded with meat and the dog chased fireflies all over the yard while...

Gentlemen! If you're ever in Cleveland Ohio look me up because I owe you some beers! It shifts. The car is ready for some burnouts, just as soon as I get the brake lights working and re-bleed them, button up the interior etc. Thank you VERY MUCH!!!

Tailshaft speed sensor, one wire not connected and making it back to the ECU and SLU not connected, still checking on others. Some make it to the ECU but three have not. Must be breaks in the wires. I'll run new wires from the trans plugs directly to the ECU after I check them all.

I have to check and see what I did with the NSW wire. I may have put power to it, I can't remember so I will have a look at that. I know it will start in any gear as well as P and N.

Well thank you guys, I now have a place to start looking. I do in fact have a DTC it's a 42 from a speed sensor. I thought that code was because my dash cluster was missing. I will check that later and report back. Thanks you sirs.

I have a 93 1UZFE and the automatic transmission transplanted as a pair, from the same donor vehicle, into another vehicle. I have the factory wiring manual and the engine runs perfectly. My questions are: The A/T goes into P R N and what feels like L1. It does not shift up at all. The...

I know why it's not shifting and after you see this, you will too. Video update https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdXvMaCrPqY

I am going to do a video update later tonight.

Thanks George, you helped me understand the wiring at the beginning and I really appreciate it. This car runs because of cool guys like you.

Wet sanded and polished out. I put it all back together today. It's not shifting, but it could be the cable or simply not enough fluid. Unless I need the transmission controller... I'm not sure yet. But anyway, have a look at this thing, it was total JUNK six months ago.

I need a nap. I've been out there since 6AM today. Still not polished out, no brightwork or emblems and the lights aren't wired yet. But it is starting to look like something...

Thanks, there's still a bunch of chrome trim to be put on yet. Door handles, all around the windows, the grill, emblems. It'll be alright with the silver wheels. So many little details yet to be done!

I was going to wait until it had the bumpers installed, but I just couldn't. Here is a sneak peek- It's NOT wetsanded & polished out yet. We're doing that Saturday. The bumpers are going to make it look totally different than it does right now. They came out pretty nice. You can see where I...

Thanks man, you know how it is with project cars- "Next time I would do it this way instead of _____" But yeah, we're reasonably happy with what it is, for the budget we had to do it. Just think of what we're all capable of with a real budget and a proper shop. Our imagination is the only limit.

The new motto is that it's "The World's Cheapest V8 Maserati". Lots of fun for sure. Won't be long now... :)
