ok latest update. unplugged the speed sensor, same issue. needle jumps to ~36MPH and the Tach jumps to about 900 RPM (with the engine off) with the engine on the tach registers a signal but it does not match what my scan tool says.
the water temp gauge seems to read but its a little low. my tool says 180* F and the needle is about 1/4 way up.
it idles really low but i have a good theory why. im not getting and O2 STFT or LTFT information. just reading 0. i think its looking for O2 sensors.
im getting an airbag light, dont think that has any relation.
oops forgot to tell you the gauge that i swapped the V6 tach into was a good working gauge before.
i also have my original gauge cluster. i put that one back in and the MPH stays at 0 and so does the Tach with the engine running. give it some gas and there is no RPM signal at all

I've actually seen something like that. On my old blue project Celica, after I pulled the engine, specifically. Missing grounds caused some funky issues. When I turned the headlights on, suddenly my speedo showed I was going like 35 or 40 mph. When I turned the brights on, I was allegedly going 60. It was simply caused by engine grounds not being in place. When I dropped a 5S back in place and halfway bolted it back up, the weird issues went away.
I'm not doubting your grounds, just merely commenting. I'm willing to bet that the speedo is something simple. Still, I'd hate tracking it down. I wish you the best of luck!

Yea your having some kind of grounding issue for sure
I've got 4 ground wires made out of ground cable for a 1600 watt amp
Try cleaning your grounds spots down to bare metal an add a couple more

while i wont disagree i might be having a ground issue, when i swap clusters, the other speed gauge reads 0. i understand why the other tach reads 0 its struggling with the V6 tach signal

i drove the car!!!!!!
i still have the GT throttle cable so i could only give it about 1/3 throttle. OMG this thing hauls ASS!!!!
bad news. the drivers axle pops out. it has the retaining ring on it but its still popping out.

There should be two small grounds off the harness that runs under the intake manifold. This grounds the ECU. You should have a chassis ground off of the ACIS side of the intake manifold as well.
Glad to hear you got to drive it. Isn't it wonderful?

I'll pop you one in the face for heresy like that.

As a fellow 7A owner, I concur. Then again the 5S isn't much better. Soo, USDM Celicas in general are heresy.

Disagreed. 'Tis a fine engine, it has its charm. Certainly reliable and stout engine, just quite limited. It could be more miserly with fuel, but for people that spend most of their time at 45 in the city, 105bhp is more than enough.
Corners are my fun.

Charm? It has as much charm as a drunkard. For the amount of power it makes you'd think it'd get better fuel economy. It looks twice as fast as what it really is, it's terrible. It's sad when a mini-van of all things is faster than a "sports car".

well i fixed the axle issue. i had to grind off about 1/16 " off the tip of the drivers side axle to get it to seat all the way into the trans. im not certain but i think i have an aftermarket LSD in there or maybe a factory. but its not the same as the MR2 because i dont have the bar through the middle. i can see some sore of place with a hole through it inside. and both wheels turn in the same direction off the ground. i am using MR2 turbo LSD axle stubs. im also using ST185 outters and no spacer, so far no issues.

Yay! Now go drive it and make some videos!

mmm v6s one of these days i'll get a ST205 and awd v6 it like my mr2
^^^^ thats so sexy! thats what im going to do once i get the swap certified. I have a complete 3MZ from a Sienna. i just need to get the VVT 1MZ intake manifold, throttle body, and the computer. how much power are you making by the way?
after driving my 3MZ/1MZ hybrid i can tell you that this is so much faster than my dads 2002 5 speed solara. it is also much torquier and faster than my 5S-FE with the turbo system on it. Once i get all the bugs worked out ill be fabricating the supercharger.
Oh by the way my cruise control is also working. im so happy about that.

These swaps are starting to look more and more appealing. Plus, there really isn't much of a weight penalty incurred with the 1MZ, right?

No the balance of the celica doesn't really change with the 1mz
It just makes the celica as fast ad it looks lol

What about mounting height, and center of gravity change? Also must add in the variable of the 3S' TMIC or FMIC, since that's the closest swap to compare to (in terms of cost/power).
