Im currently fitting another rev2 engine with rev3 wiring. Hence a couple of the pipes I cant remember where they go as the engine has been out for a while :lol: I know this pipe use to feed into the rubber S bend (yellow tape over the end) joining the turbo, because its in a kitcar, I dont need to ...

Jim,

the linked one has 3 wires. I presume you just connect two of them? Considering switching to this sensor as I'm just about to install the Rev2 forged block with Rev 3 sensors / loom etc...

anyone actually repinned before and got advice on getting the pins out etc...? Watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I5wTcWD_DQ Same connector on the MR2 ECU. thats perfect thanks, now if only a girl lived here so i could find them clips everywhere. I've still got a berk harness adapter kit t...

anyone actually repinned before and got advice on getting the pins out etc...?

I think this has answered my question....I need to follow the wiring back from the ECU plug and see what has been done and where the plug is. Ill do a resistance check to find the relevant plug to that those pins



Still after repinning advice though

I have a rev2 forged build running a rev3 setup to put in the car. Question 1 Manifold Air Temp sensor - where the 5th injector was on a rev2, I cant find a connector for it on the engine loom, does the Rev3 ECU require this to be connected? If so do I just change the connector on what is effectivel...

Maybe not quite what you wanted to hear but useless? Just means your going to have to do the work yourself instead of relying on others. I meant the book not your reply. But I'm afraid it is useless id have to buy every bolt listed, as what is on the engine isnt known and then have loads of wasted ...

mr2magic wrote:Yeah, there is no single list containing all bolts, sizes, thread pitches etc. pertaining solely to the short block/long block/partial assembly

yea bit useless unfortunately then, nevermind

isnt that the whole car though? not whatts just used on the engine?

I got the sensors out of my hubs, so I have either a front or rear somewhere I think

I'm going to be refreshing my engine. I don't suppose there is some list of the spring band clip sizes used on the car and the bolts the car uses on the engine.

Save me going out there and playing the guessing game as god knows where my verniers are!

ideally when refitting, its worth checking the timing again with a timing gun just for peace of mind.

cheers Jim, I have a timing gun so no issue there

So the 2nd one is on the road, A lot more work than mine body and engine and chassis...so the engine 6.2l Small Chevy Block on a porsche transaxle with Carbs and trumpet feeds, Expected BHP 550bhp+ Guess I better speed up a forged build :lol: Bodywork....ill just say this apart from the rear vents u...

Is it a simple case of being able to just whip off the distributor (marking the position etc... obviously) or do I need to take anything else off, like Cam cover etc...

Sorry I wasnt, it fell on my bday

Got an itch for a change from the mr2 nothing wrong with it just fancy something else. Was looking at making a short wheel base Quattro rally car rep. Which is a huge amount of work and having to use 3 donor cars to make one seems a lot of hassle. This Tho this does tick a few boxes Seen they have ...

Not tempted to get a BGW, for that full McLaren F1 LM look?

Tempted regularly 😂 But I'd have to be sure about it!

I've got a 3rd dashboard iteration in now that I've built and flocked.



I also decided to give it its first good machine polish, I've only been using it 2 and a half years so a little overdue lol but came up well

It weights just over a ton. But it could easily have a fair amount of weight stripped out of it as I added a lot of sound deadening and creature comforts like a heavy air on unit which I haven't even bother plumbing in
