congrats and it sounds good, what are you doing for tuning.
Thanks man. I'm gonna get it remote tune with a tuner from Florida. Same guy that was tuning me before.Quote:

Also test fitted ets short route uicp and I need a longer coupler in the middle to make it fit. Also since I'm not able to get the tial flange properly welded on there, I ended up ordering an adapter

That previous mysterious coolant leak is back and I found out it was my heater core. Yay me!
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...4badeb58f0.jpg
So just bypassed the heater core for now.
Still fighting power steering. Gonna completely flush the system out from the old fluid and replace it with new fluid. Feed hose from reservoir to pump is leaking so ordered push-lock fittings and line to replace the braided line.

small update:
heater core bypassed.
tuner worked on the car more, found out my front o2 sensor is bad, replaced it and retuned again. idles better and drives better (just drove it down the street) still leans out a bit and sputters.
upper radiator hose is done just waiting for t-bolt clamps for it.
Moroso battery box is installed in the trunk, just need to finish the wiring for the battery.
power steering magically bled itself, just need to replace feed hose and flush the old fluid out since its pink which means there is water in the system or massive condensation.
UICP will be installed soon with a Tial adapter for now until im able to properly weld the Tial flange on there
Need to somehow squeeze an intake on the turbo with this fan in the way so i dont suck all the hot air from the fan. Evo fan is SO MUCH better than that stupid universal fan i had on there. i will test it for sure on a hot day driving it. temps at idle is around 200F
Nice update! Good to hear about u getting closer.

Current status of the engine bay. Trimmed the catch can lines to proper length. Ets short route uicp installed, and intake and filter (not too happy about placement of it), mounted oil cooler and made lines for it.

Had major issues leaning out. Changed tunes and changed roms and still no luck. Starting poking around and found out my COP harness which failed to lock in the pins, so it barely plugged in and it caused for bad spark which caused the ecu to pull fuel and lean it out.
Wastegate is stuck open. Need to fix that. Adjust my clutch pedal and button her up and drive it.

Awesome. Heading the right road look3 like. Tht spool tho!!! Sooocky!!!

my final conclusion is that i may have a wiring issue,*
i swapped another set of Toyota denso coils and it didnt make a difference. i changed back to stock coils and the car great. so now i needed to extend the passenger side coil wire to reach the coil properly.*
after extending it and taping the wire back together, started the car and it did the same thing. undid the tape and started it and started wiggling wires around to see if i can cause it to do what it did before and nothing happened. taped the harness again and tested it and she ran fine.*
tested my COP harness for continuity on all pins and they are all fine. so im convinced that my ignition harness has a problem somewhere and i need to pull it all out and remove the tape and inspect it.

What size wire are u running? (Electrical guage)

On my COP harness?? 18ga
Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk
My thought is they to small? Do they get hot?
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Idk but I know all the people that made COP harness used this and gauge. Stock ignition wires are same gauge except one wire
Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk
Sorry was busy at work. Ok. I will use a 16 and even a 14 with cooper wires. Not the chrome looking ones. Is ok for factory to use tht but i will upgrade for cop. U already have them out give it a shot. And not codes on ecu?Quote:

I would have to remake the entire harness with brand new connectors since I can't just unpin those current ones.Quote:

So finally got around to working on the car. Swapped the ecu and it made no difference.
Yesterday my friend Matt came over to help me clean up the harness and replace any shady looking connections and it finally idles, runs, and drives.
Here's before:

Now just need some wrap around wire sleeving and it should look so much better.
Relocated the ecu for better and easier access. Need to make a mounting plate to keep it sturdy from vibrating or moving around.
Need to fix the fan, welded the brackets to the old radiator so I need to cut and reweld them again. And I need to install a coolant overflow bottle.

Glad you got it running right!
Been a while since I updated this. Didn't get very far but we're getting somewhere.
After the harness cleanup we did. We had an issue with the front oxygen sensor not logging. Found out after some inspection that the wires at the pigtail were stripped
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...72691e4bd7.jpg
Got that replaced and then we were good to go. Tuner had been busy and been kinda ignoring me, that's what happens when you overbooked yourself. I also think he got bored with my car never wanting to run properly. Long story short I moved on to another tuner.
New tuner who shall remain unnamed for now until I ask him if I can disclose who he is. Had some trouble with my idle. The afr was being really stupid either running rich or lean and can't get it to hit that sweet spot easily. After few tunes and different adjustment we got it to a good spot.
At this point I decided to either send those injectors out for a cleaning or just buy new ones and try that.
Got a major hook up on ID1000, paid $385 shipped instead of $480. Ordered then Thursday morning, got them Friday afternoon. I ordered PnP adapters for them but those are still on the way. Came with connectors and pins so I salvaged a set of adapters I had for the subaru injectors and made adapters for these.

And installed them Saturday evening and fired it up on a base map
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...02b1e0188e.jpg
The Afr is so much more stable. Fic are great injectors but seems that ID injectors are more stable. Although the base map was a bit on the rich side, it was only fluctuating between 11.8-12.3 now that's very impressive. Tuner said the idle log looked really good and the car sounded so much smoother.
More tuning to come soon and hopefully I can turn up the boost.
Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk
Did some tuning last night. About an hour and a half worth probably and nailed down the idle Afr to the 14s range with a slight swing. Drove the car and it drives like my daily almost without boost and we haven't even worked on cruise Afr yet.
Here's an idle shot

You are not planning on using e85 are you? I ask that cause 1000cc injectors max out at around 400whp on e85.
Can't buy E85 anywhere around me. I'm sticking to 93Quote:

Installed the new wheels. Avid.1 Av20 18x8.5 +15 wrapped in Nankang 225/40-18 with 10mm spacers on the front to clear the brembos.
Here's pics before adding negative camber to the front

Went with evo series prosport gauges
http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...6c0de84070.jpg
Boost gauge was acting up. Prosport said they won't replace it, but they want me to send it in and get it tested. So I decided to pull the trigger on Aem gauges instead
