Now that I am back from holidays, I can work on the car. I started the wiring at 9am this morning.
I had previously done most of the work but was unsure of a few wires coming out of the ECU. Having the JDM BEAMS manual made a big difference. I never ever had to worry about it being written in Japanese. All the plugs are labeled in english and the pin numbers are also in english. This made things easy to follow. I used my 94 manual and also a 97 manual to cross reference all the wires. It turns out that those wires I was so concerned about go to a data port located inside the car beside the ECU. It turns out that my car is a few years to old and did not have that port. I choose to ignore those wires and not install the port; at least not now anyways. The wiring is complete and wrapped. (3pm) The motor now goes into the car. This post has been edited by Outsider: Sep 10, 2005 - 10:36 PM -------------------- ![]() 1994 GT-S (BEAMS) swap complete |

It's a BEAMS 3S-GE. It's really rare, are you sure you've seen it before? Not just painted red valve covers?

basically think of the beams engine as and extremely bad ass engine... it has more details as far as strength of the internals and all, but plain and simple, its BAD ASS!!!!

You can actually order a blank OBD II port for that car through Toyota for less than 100 dollars if you want it. It will allow you to do advanced diagnostics and will probably come in handy when/if you have any problems when you first start tuning the engine and troubleshooting.

QUOTE hi well done beams engine is the dogs bollocks yes,iam from the uk and have just bought gen 6 beams celica cos its vary rare over here no one seems to know anything about it i dont even know what engine oil to put in it can anyone help please? Any info would be a grate help part numbers,oil and fluids etc Congratulations on getting a Beams, you'll be the target of envy on here. ![]() As far as oil goes, the correct weight oil may be printed on the oil filler cap on top of the engine. If its not there, I would just use a good synthetic 10w 30 oil....thats whats used in the 3SGTE also.
