Hi pajman thanks for the reply. I got a lot of info from bushwacker so hopefully I should be able to sort it out. I'm running the lexus 1uzfe auto trans. I wasn't sure what wires needed a power feed to stop the car starting in gear. I started it yesterday in reverse, I didn't realise until I...

Can anyone here shed light on wiring the auto trans for a 92 1uzfe with stock trans and ecu? It didn't occur to me that I would need to interact with these wires in the loom until I thought about the reverse light, speedo wire etc. Also it starts in any gear which I don't like. I have not...

Thanks for the reply. I still have a few issues to overcome like exhaust manifolds and the shifter but my biggest problem that I am tackling is the wiring. I just cant seem to get my head around it. I like doing diesel conversions but this is my first ecu controlled motor. Did you document...

I can't access your pics. I am currently fitting a 1uz to an 82 w126 sec coupe. Biggest obstacles so far for me-steering box hitting exhaust manifold, gear linkage on wrong side. Wiring. I am interested in your swap and will follow.
