    Justen - you better start heading down then, I've given up, the 1G is going back in.

    Ed - just do it damnit

    In the meantime, here's the tacked mounts. They seem to fit well

    They have since been welded up properly...

    ...and work has begun on the headers (Thanks to JMR ) - the driver's side (the hard side).


    Packaging constraints have determined their lengths, so they won't be equal - no2 on this side could be made longer if it was remade but it probably won't happen. The benefit is they all run on the block side of the steering shaft and clear that very well (no photos unfortunately). At the moment they come out without removing the engine mount but the steering uni has to be moved and all of the nuts can be placed over the studs in the installed position. (It's amazing how easily things come off on a 6 year old car... steering uni joint just slipped off in contrast to the one on the sprinter that took much imagination just to budge).
    The passenger side should be easier and it should be relatively simple to make them equal length.

    Ah yes, heard of that with the yellow sportscross. The economy gauge needs fuel usage (injector opening time information) and speed signal - if either of these are not available it won't work.
    If the speed signal is not available, the fuel gauge will jump around depending on acceleration of the vehicle - it must ignore the fuel sender signal if it detects significant changes in speed.

    Does your 1G ECU "think" the engine is running or "cranking" or just on, etc?
    If I need to use the 1G ECU for comms, I will endeavour to make it think it's running - ie make sure it has IGf, connect the two engine position signals, temp signals, map sensor, loads for outputs if required, etc. Possibly that way it will just find a fault with the VVTi not responding to changes and most other things, in theory, it should be happy with.

    The air-con problem is very commone issue with engine swaps in the IS200.
    Did you hook up the lockup detector to the 1G ECU? What did you do to make it work?
    Let us know what you find out with the scope (They're beautiful pieces of equipment - luckily work has a fine selection).

    More updates as they happen

    Headers (by JMR) completed Neverending thanks to Jason from JMR for the amazing amount of work involved in this part of the project.

    Note the quality of the workmanship of the joints. Everything was TIG welded, including the outer and inner flange ports. The pipes (1 5/8") were extended to the diameter of the flange hole (1 3/4"), tigged, and ground flat.





    In their installed position:

    The pics really don't do the headers justice, I soiled yet another pair of work pants yesterday checkng them out on the hoist

    Honestly tho this is going to be one of the horniest IS200's around by a long shot.

    Kudo's on those headers mate! That's some awsome custom work there. I wish i had the time and skill to learn how to do that. Keep up the great work

    I must have my head stuck in the sand, totally missed this thread and had no idea you were even planning this Last time we spoke you were talking 2J's

    Anyway, looks sensational, makes me want to go and put a 1UZ in my car now

    Great work on the mounts and to JMR for the sexy looking headers
