    Update-
    I ve got the engine and tranny mounted, I have got the wiring somewhat installed, I dnt want to think about if the speedo is going to work.

    Highlight- I cant find the damn tranny mount bracket- so the tranny is resting on the jack......

    I should have all the fuel lines and misc. plugs completed- Im hoping to turn here over late tommorow.

    Well Ive the harness in the car- Now the problem I forseen is coming true- None of the harness plugs match going to the Speedo.

    And the harness that controls the fans and lights differ as well.

    Hey Mighty. I have completed this Gen2 swap in my 88 GTS. There are a few plugs you have to convert.

    You will need the yellow 4th Gen interior connector. I think you will need the female side. (The ST185 have all different plugs.)

    You will need those fuse box plugs from the 5th Gen Celica. All three of those plugs come on the GT, GTS 5th Gen.

    There should be three gray and white connectors that go to the ECU. The white connector has the cruise control, ABS, and AC wires which are not really needed.

    I used this website and both Gen electrical manuals to complete this swap:

    http://www.gtfour.ca/howtoswap.html

    http://www.celicatech.com/imagearchive/bgbonline/bgb.php

    I also used a wire tester to verify continuity to each end point.

    Example: The TPS, AFM, and turbo pressure sensor all use this pin called PIM. Its spliced somewhere in the harness into one wire that goes to the ECU. I found the wire in the ECU then tested the continuity between each one to make sure the right wire is going to the right ECU pin.

    I think the hardest part about the swap is not doing enough research and finding the right parts. I new nothing about the electrical part before the swap but now I can tell you where every color wire is and where it goes on the Toyotas.

    Here is what I used and my dyno numbers:

    93 JDM 3sgte
    93 JDM Mr2 ECU
    93 JDM igniter (your model and make must match ecu)
    88 GT Trans
    88 GTS axels
    Gen 2 AFM
    Gen 2 Turbo Pressure Sensor
    Custom 3" stainless steel exhaust
    Koyo radiator

    Dyno at 232Hp to the wheels

    My swap is the white one in my thread

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Update time !!!!
    I have burned 3 fingers. lololol

    I have gotten all the interior lights working (thank you ST165) - When I turned the key to the on position the BEAUTIFUL HALO of lights gleamed with joy !!!

    3 Issues:

    1- I cant crank the car with the key- I have to put the Single wire to the starter to try and crank it.

    2.- I dont think Im getting any spark- while cranking.

    3.- I dont have high beam lights when I pull the Lever back on the column.

    Man it felt so good to see the lights come on !
