    i belive that i have solved my problem. those wires in the first pic go to the ecu i think. i think that i have the wrong ecu, the one that came with my engine was out of an mr2..... any thoughts???


    thanks

    ok, your gonna have 3 plugs that are grouped together out of the 5 that you showed. Those 3 are for the ecu. The other 2 plugs plug in between the ecu and shifter. If you have an mr2 engine you need the mr2 ecu.

    well the engine i have is out of a 88 al trac, so it looks like im going to have to hunt down a st-165 ecu. out of curiosity where does the ecu go?

    thanks

    hold the phone!
    you have a problem and an upgrade
    so you are using a 165 motor...but that harness goes to a 185! it'll work but you'll need a 90-92 185 ecu.

    i bought the harness of allblackalltrac it should work with the fourth gen, but i bought my engine from an mr2 guy, ( it is a 165 for sure) but i think he just through it in just to help the deal go through.

    165 harness=yellow plugs
    185 harness=grey plugs

    if you end up needing a 165 ecu ive got one, ive got a 165 harness also.

    well as mafix said, it can work with the 185 ecu. so finding one of them should be a lot cheaper than breaking for a whole complete harness and ecu

    Celic_GT2 Well-Known Member Moderator Donated!

    well a guy on celicatech.com is asking $$110.00 + shipping for a 185 ecu.

    i thought it would be a wise idea if would consult the 4g crew first,
    Toytuner: im wondering how wuch you will charge for the 165 harness and ecu.
    Mafix: how much work would it take if i have to adapt the 185 harness to my engine?

    thanks

    dude you can get them on alltrac.net for 50 bucks all day.
    adapting isn't bad. just a lot of random sensors to change.
