awesomethat's the colour scheme I want to do, I wasn't sure about the ACIS cover, but looks great, nice contrast. Are you going to paint the first intake plenum a silver? And did you while it was off put heat reflective tape underneath it?

I was actually going to ceramic coat the intake, but I just went with your suggestion instead. Much cheaper! LOL.
As for painting the first intake plenum, I'm done with the painting for now, I just want to get this thing back into the car and drive it again.

I'm picturing that red in the engine bay contrasting with the body's yellow, and it's tasty.

Way to do the job right, Kaos.
I'm eagerly anticipating your posts about making the appropriate changes to get the swap running. I hope you can detail the process. I'm hoping to put one in myself, but I don't know what changes need to be made to the wiring.

So far so good... the only thing I need to do that's big with the harness is find a way to get it through the firewall.
As far as I've been told - the pins are all plug 'n play in the cabin.

That sounds excellent. Check this out. I've been searching hi and low to find somebody with a writeup or something. And I found a post by an active member on here about swapping a 3rd gen. He actually used the stock 5sfe harness!

What the hell? You can do that? I guess you can. I've think the ecu plugs on the 5s harness match up to the 3rd gen ecu so why not?
I also have a bookmark around here somewhere about a guy who ran a 3sge on the 5s harness, sensors and ecu! Very detailed write up. Ah I gotta find it now that I mentioned it. Here: Incredible work by user bajachris88 on toymods.

>you can use your 3s harness, i did a swap for my friend using a 3rd gen 3sge non beams with his original 5sfe harness, i had to wire up two injectors, re-pin the dizzy, and re-pin the ecu plugs to run the ge ecu. and extended some of the tb plugs and wire in the acis solenoid. it's not as easy as wiring a honda but it's very doable.

No photo updates as of yet, just a confession.
I'm tired of not being able to drive this car, so as of today; I'm officially back on the rebuild.
(been taking an extended break due to rebuild challenges, finances, and ****ty weather).
First things first, I need to build a fuel line.
Stay tuned...

Wiring harness has been unloomed, lengthened appropriately and buttoned back up. Next weekend, if I can get the rest of the parts, oil, etc gathered, the car will hopefully fire up! W00t!

Big weekend for me and my car;
After 6 long years, it will hopefully be back up and running by the end of the weekend!!!!

Torqued to 95 ft-lbs, as per spec:
Ran into my first speed bump. The brand new Southbend Stage 2 clutch I ordered doesn't mate to the flywheel (its for a 3SGE), the clutch was for a 5SFE - so it'll be going up for sale very soon.
Someone PM me if you need it - give you a sweet dealio.
Luckily a member of the local Celica Car Group has a brand new clutch that he decided not to use for his 3SGTE swap... so yay for me! Have to go pick it up this afternoon, and then will get back to work shortly after.

Just building a new fuel line while I wait to pick up the 3SGTE clutch.
And here it is, much nicer than the one I was originally putting on it.
Housing back on - breaking for lunch and then it goes back into the car!

Awesome to hear it's all coming back together. I can't believe it has been 6 years, really?
Are you planning to bring it to Ogopogo if all goes well?

Hey bud!
Yes, Ryan and I should have it running this week for sure. Had a few hiccups this weekend that held things up a bit.
I would need to break it all in, entirely new everything pretty much... and then assess the financial situation afterwards.
