Update May 3th part!!
I said it have to get out, so THIS IS IT!
So on Wednesday, my friend came in and said "let's finish the harness, tape, cover and everything and we go for a ride!!!" I love his optimistic opinion but I was a little bit less enthousiat than him.. like it was impossible to finish everything we need at least to have a little ride....!
Well, be begin by the harness, just to clean everything up inside the car because it was very messy!!
Now that's clean!!!! By the way, the AEM FIC is not yet connected.
For the engine bay side of the harness we've had to make everything work, rather then putting everything inside the existing 2JZ harness (pain in the ass job), we've made a second harness.
We finally didn't make it to get the car out as I espected.
Now on friday, on my way home, get here on CL to get my message and realized that I forgot to write "Tow Hook" on my to do list!!! Was like.. ******, it's 2H PM and everything close at 5!!
Give a rush on that, went inside the garage, make a 5min plan in my head, and went to buy the stuff I need. As I have already the Benen Tow Hook, it "only" take a solid braket to mount it! So here the stuff needed (by the way, the 1/2 size 5 inches long bolts were finally too long and went for 1/2 size 3 1/2 inches long ones that fits perfect!)
Braket finish before paint.
Everything mount and installed (Trush me, the tow hook will brake before my braket!!)
Finish setup for the harness and installed the Canister, and loll, need a longer vaccuum hose for it!!
2 friends of mine where there on that day, so will I show them how to installed the front bumper I've gave a rush to reassemble my interior (don't want my foot jam intook the falling wires from the underdash! And also you can see the final look of the tow hook! Also finished the left side inner fender.
YEAAH! Out finally!!! Running great, always for now the low idle and running rich, I'll see later after rolling it a little.
the "running rich" problem as been solved by rolling with the car for a good 30min arround, thanks to ALI SC3 for the hint! At cold, it stay a low rpm (600), and when hot, it stay a 800-900 like the 1JZ used to be.. so don't know yet how to make it higher when cold!
Also have a turbo oil leak for the return line, I'll order a new gasket and have to damn change it.. It would be fun!!
Also, the second turbo don't seem to boost at all.. my boost peak at 9psi, then drop to 7 until 5000rpm and then drop till I shift gear. I'll check this with my friend this week. Maybe an actuator blocked or an VSV valve that don't work fine.
So for now that's where I am on this project!!! At least it run, and run great thanks to my buddy Maxime and all my friend that help me!!
And thanks a lot for your comments, questions and appreciations!! I like to share and help other if I can!
