These engines are very nice to drive. i love mine, but i cant keep two cars. lol

Oh thanks for telling me about that strap i just re-positioned the straps so no connectors are near any of the straps.

I'll probably be on here a lot know that I'm doing this swap asking a lot of questions and looking for any advise that anyone has to give.

Thanks again.

Nice choice - I want to get a BEAMS when my state allows me.

Can we see some pics of the car about to be swapped? smile.gif

Throttle position sensor is broken. That'll set you back about $50 for a brand new one, part number 89452-02020. Looks like the wiring and a few other things will need some attention but should be a fun project. thumbsup.gif

I want to know too. I spun a bearing in mine, a 99 Celica, and I can buy the upgrade. I don't know what else I will need to complete the swap. I can buy the engine and transmission complete with the harness. What else will I need?

You'll need the engine, uncut engine harness, b-pipe and stock airbox.

We need more information. Is your car a GT or ST? Auto or manual? I have a writeup in the stickied that will be very useful for getting you started in the right direction.

Do you have everything plugged in down by the ECU? There's 3 plugs that go to the dash harness. You shouldn't be having any issues.
