Thanks for the offer, I will most likely need plenty of stuff, I'm also changing from auto to manual so I'm going to need cables, shifters ect.

Not to much yet, I've been slowly working on it, we were recently blanketed with close to 2 ft of snow so I haven't had much time to get out to my shed. I am currently working on removing the wiring harness, and I will have plenty more pictures to come very soon.

For the next one I need some help, the green arrow is pointing to a plug that is supposed to be mounted on top of the that thing that the yellow arrow is pointing at. What is that thing that the yellow arrow is pointing at!? also please don't make fun of the dumb arrows, i was in a rush!
the yellow arrow is pointing at your 'vvti oil control valve' (you want to be careful with that, thats US $120 right there.)

Ah crap! the plug that the green arrow is pointing at is supposed to go to that but it apparently broke off.
yp the vvti sensor is crap
email aaron at partznet. or cheaptoyotaparts.uk
always ask about that sensor. it breaks easily

The "Fly Low" Project: 3rd Gen 3SGTE
No updates yet, too cold to work, and I can't seem to find the vvti oil sensor anywhere, I called a dealership but they seemed as though they had no idea that the engine even existed. I'm also looking for some other parts, like a good timing belt, a water pump, and I found a part number for an engine gasket kit, but it doesn't apear to exist.
Welcome to owning a beams. Everything is hard to find, and you probably won't find what you need at a US dealership because the motor was never released here.

water pump is the same as 2nd generation 3sgte engine as well as 3rd gen 3sgte and 3rd gen 3S-GE. Gasket kit your going to completely rebuild the engine. that will cost you around $400. timing belt, you can choose from an oem, hks or toda racing...
do you know the mileage on the engine. Also get the engine compression tested, get the screw in type long threaded compression tester and each cylinder should read at 198.7 psi
do you have the MAF Sensor and intake box??

ok, found the parts I need! The guys at cheaptoyotaparts.co.uk were very helpful, however it is going to cost me about $200 so I'm going to get a small list together of parts I need from them and order them all at once. The weather here is finally to become a bit more mild, so hopefully I can get out to the shed soon and begin working on it, as far as the MAF intake box goes, I do not have one, but i will most likely use the cold air intake from my current engine. I'm still trying to work with the wiring harness to, the fuse box seemed to have taken a beating during the shipping process so I'm going to see what I can do about that. all that said I'm happy things are looking up for the time being, thanks for all the help so far!
this will work just fine as I am using it for my engine right now!

and just get 3 inch piping for any bends that you need. Id say use one 80 degree bend piping that is 3 inch piping so that the intake sits right behind the battery. along with the link i posted and it will idle just fine

Every compression tester reads differently, the only major thing that matters is consistency between the #s.

uh not really.
A compression tester test the amount of force in a compression stroke. meaning the amount of air "pushed" or "forced" into such a tight space. Same as a boost gauge, Same as a compressor tank gauge, Same as any other kind of compression gauge.
unless you dont know how to properly screw to the right (also known as a clockwise turn) (or moving a handle -> that way), a compression tester should have accurate readings.
* and if all 4 readings are less than a pound, You still got a bad motor.
Geeze Andrew...

Some compression tester gauges read differently than others, i used 4 separate testers on my engine last year, every single one read that the cylinders were within 4 psi of eachother, but the testers all had a 5-30 psi difference.
parts orderd, $303 total 
, can't wait until they arrive though!

the 198.7 psi is the standard pressure from the factory. Not some number I made up

after months of waiting the ball finally began to roll, and now after weeks of work, the engine is in and as of last night, it has officially been started with many thanks to my good friend Americo (fate). Now I need the proper shifter cables and to install the axles and it will be on the road.
Nice! Congrats! The first drive is so close. You'll love it.
