My 1MZ progress thread - 6G Celicas Forums
ok small update, i ended up getting both front and rear headers from a 5 speed solara. because im trying to smog this car, i need to comply with how the solara is. luckily it only has 1 CAT after the Y pipe so im getting all those parts now. the AC lines have been fabbed up. The Solara and the Celica use the same AC compressor but you have to either change the top section where the lines attach to it, or change the pulley. I elected to swap the top sections. i just welded -8 AN fittings on the spots where the hoses attach and made my own lines.

I got so excited for a minute when I read "I turned the key." I was expecting to hear it started on the first try. I'm sure you'll get it sorted out in no time.

is that aluminized steel, your exhaust work?? is there a difference in weight between aluminzed steel(which is what most exhaust shops use right?) and sus304 stainless....

Gotta figure why the key in the on position is triggering the starter.

No my thromostat gauge doesn't work right
Speedily works fine.
When mine acted kinda odd it was grounding related.
Did you put the 2 harness grounds back on the intake manifold then ground the block to the car?
What starter are you using?

yes the 2 grounds are hooked up on the back of the engine, well one on teh back and one on the side of the IM. im using the 5S-FE starter, its the same as the 3S and 1MZ.

multi-meter and start checking plugs.... GO
ok just spent an hour on the phone with Doug, he is the man by the way.
we disconnected the wire on the 22 pin connector at pin 8 which was black with a grey band every inch and everything worked perfectly.
He thinks pin 8 is MRL which was sending the 12V to the starter trigger. we moved that wire to pin 7 which i think was STA, i cant remember.
now gotta figure out why when i turn on the key, my speedometer jumps to about 36MPH

2001 Celica GT-S Turbo1997 Supra TT 6speed1997 Celica 3MZ/1MZ swap1990 Celica All-Trac
