1G-GE + celica = ?

i have a mate that is a auto electrician by trade, went round his house the other day and he was working on this old celica, he told me the guy who owns it tried a 1G-GE (2.0l twin cam efi inline 6 yeh?) engine transplant but has never got it to run, its 95% complete and has been to 4 different auto electricians in effort to find its problem.
now if you saw the engine bay you'd freak, it had wires n shit everywhere, full backyard job, auto leccy's worst nightmare "an abortion" as brendon puts it.
anyway it turns out the ecu was to blame for most of the problems and another ecu has been sourced.
but he's having trouble finding a 'ignitor' for the 1G and has asked me to help look for one (ill post in the wanted section aswell) but im also curious as to what vehicle the 1G-GE originaly came out of?
no wreckers seem to have the ignitor and im not sure you will want to know how much a newy is if it can even be bought here.
Cheers.

The 1G-GE came out in a few cars, the GA60 series Celica and the GX60, 70 and I think 80 series Mark II, Chaser, Cresta. I have a 1G-GE wiring diagram at home, an EPC to look up part numbers, and a spare ignitor from either a M or G series motor. Plus, I am in Perth. Can your mate ID the motor from the plug leads, and give me the year of the engine ? That would help me start to track down the right ignitor. Pick a Part had a 1G-E engined GX62 Chaser there a few months ago but it is crushed now. Let me know.

The old coarers and I think celica XX's came out with 1dde's. I don't know much about celica XX's though so I'm not 100%, just my understanding from reding these forums.
You should be able to get an igniter from any 1G (turbo or blown) that'll work.

how do you id the motor from the plug leads? they have been replaced with topgun items, dizzy is at the front of the motor drivers side and spark plugs are positioned in the same fashion as the 1g/1j.
he got some crappy wiring diagram faxed to him, in japanese mind but from what ive seen he only has some wiring on the ecu to go before its completed, im sure he would like to get his hands on any info possible.
im off to work now so you wont hear from me for 8 hrs.
the car is at his house not the work shop but if you could give him a call on 9386 7458 (Nedlands Auto-Electrics / Brendon) im sure you will get all the info YOU need out of him.
Cheers for all the help.
Hope this car gets back on the road soon, ill get some pics up soon, although its nothing special to look at

Todd,
The year of manufacture is printed on the original plug leads. Its good to know to help get the right parts for that engine, as ignitors can change from year to year. Thanks for passing on his phone number, I will get in touch with him when I can find the time.
Mitch.

ok well the original leads have definatly gone, what other ways are there to tell year of manufacture?
dont feel obliged to call if you dont want, my primary goal here is to obtain a compatible igniter for this given 1g-ge, BUT if you have any wiring diagrams or data you could perhaps email me, that would also be great!
