1. Triple core would probably work better than the old stocko, but not sure if its neeeded
2. From reading similar threads, it seems easier\better in the long run to used Aftermarket ECU's and getting them tuned by a competent tuner.
4. I'm almost certain the stock fuel pump wont be up to the task
5. Toyota dealerships are wankers

1. Go the triple core. I have one and the engine still gets warm sometimes (eg under load for extended periods on a hot day). MA61's suffer from poor front end airflow thanks to the funky 80's style front end, so cooling will always be an issue when you have power.
2. Can't help you there - first thing I did was chuck the auto in the bin! 
3. You can fit a massive cooler in the front of an MA61. My InterBrick(tm) squeezed in with no modifications once the aircon dryer and fan was out of the way.
4. Definitely replace the stock pump. I recommend a Walbro 255lph in-tank pump; 305rwhp on the dyno and it was definitely not leaning out (mixtures around 10:1). You can get them in a kit to suit an MA61 tank, it bolts straight in.
5. Haven't found any good dealers in Brisbane; I got my parts through a dealer at the GC. Can't remember exactly which one at the moment. See if you can find a chassis number from a JZX100, it will make life a lot easier. I had the foresight to take a photo of the build plate on my Aristo front cut, it's been used many times since!

Hey thanks guys.
Sorry I wasn't to clear on question 2. I have ripped the auto out and I'm using a w58. What I want to know is how to go about tricking the computer so it won't go into limp mode. Does anyone have any ideas on how to go about this?
Its good to hear that the hybrid fits cause that was what I was considering buying.
I thought the new haltech's could control VVTi at least that is what it says here http://www.tweakit.net/shop/product_info.php?cPath =24_25&products_id=92&detail=true
has anyone had any experience using a E6X on a VVTi Engine?
I have an 84 so pretty sure thats internal pump. I will go with the walbro on your advice. Thanks 
Stark you have a PM

Ok back to question 2...
The Easiest way I think to get the ECU to run a manual box is to give 12v to the Neutral safty switch... So the ECU thinks its in neutral and will rev away... I have actuallyheard two stories regarding the fabled limp mode... that it will be reduced power etc... I have seen a few of these conversions now and havnt come across the problem personally...
As for the VVTi and the Haltech... well yeah I emailed tweakit about 6 months ago when i was ecu shopping and they just said yes yes yes it would run and so did haltech...
I then rang them and questioned further... There VVTi and VTEC control only controlls the VVT solenoid via an RPM/Load Switch...
This means that there is only a high/low setting.. This makes it unsuitable for our motors as the VVTi is run off 3 things
A Camshaft position sensor
A Solinoid
Oil Pressure
Unfortunately you cant just switch the vvti solinoid on at a certain point as it will rotate the camshaft a whole 60 degrees (Not good)
There are three options... Use your factory computer. Save for a Motec. Use the haltech and switch your vvti off...
Option three isnt as bad as you may think.. you still get most of the benefits of the later design being; new head design; higher compression ratio (The reason for the better torque) and the single turbo...
Will get those part numbers to ya

Thanks stark that was what I was after. Looks like I will be using the factory computer until I can save up enough for the Motec. Unless anyone here would like to donate one to a worthy cause I will post a couple of pics up on my progress in the next couple of days.

Hiya buccy, I have done a 1JZ-GTE VVTi into an RA23 Celica. I also used a W58. So if there is anything you want to know, drop me a PM. Factory ECU is the way to go, as "most" aftermarket computers are only capable of switching the VVTi solenoid on or off at a given RPM setting. If you really want to increase power later, use an interceptor/aftermarket ECU to change fuel and ignition maps. I picked up the tacho signal from the igniter. Limp home mode has not been encountered. My only Dyno run, was to check air/fuel ratios at the top end. But she punched out 170Kw at the treads. I will have a run in 'Shootout mode" 24th October.
cheers Chuck.

What everyone else has said above . And:
1. I'm 'getting-bye' on a stock (flushed) MA61 radiator with two 10" thermos and WatterWetter. OK if it's not Summer and you're not in traffic. But definitely not a long-term solution. I'm going tripple core (or something equally snazzy) within the next couple of months.
3. I'm using a generic 300x600x75 FMIC with no prob's. Only size issues will be the effect on where your IC piping is outed and where your battery is going to live.
4. Walbro internal 255 is just, damned perfect
Great pix - please keep 'em coming!

Yeah I don't think limp-home mode is much to worry about. Everyone told me I'd have issues like that with my auto 2JZ-GTE, but the ECU doesn't seem to care at all. I didn't do anything special, just bypassed the neutral switch and it ran fine!

A bit more info on Q3.
The OD of the IC pipes is 59mm. They are the stock plastic ones from a JZA70 supra as JAZE was running the stock JZA70 IC.

yes, yes i was...... cheers for that. the 59 fits with a little room to move so a little bigger should work
ive used auto ecu twice, had no issues with limp home, but had some issues with the temperature climbing a little high with the stock radiator, a tripple core deffinately works alot better, but that idea about the camry radiator sounds good too. later model radiators tend to be alu and a little more efficient, and if it comes with themos and shrouds, it may be quite cost effective. best of luck and stay away from the haltech

1) YES get your radiator triple cored... Alternatively a 1990's V6 Camry Radiator is bigger and fits nicely (Also has twin thrmo fans and shrouds to boot

Hi Stark,
Sorry for the thread hijack buccy (good to hear that it is all going well so far), but I am intruiged by the above rad suggestion.
What is the location of the outlets like, and what mods were required to make it fit ?
Were the fans push or pull ?
Cheers
Michael B
PS - I am going through the fun of making theI/C pipes now, but to suit a 7M-GTE & ARC in the MA61

Ok I saw the radiator mod done on an MA61 with an MA61 with a 7M conversion about 3 years ago in Sydney when I was there last...
Unfortunately I dont have many details.... I saw the conversion and asked how he got thermo fans that looked so factory....
His reply was that it was a different radiator from a late eighties early nineties V6 Camry... Upon inspection the water outlets were in exactly the same position as the stock radiator..
The radiator physically is a little bit wider than the stock supra one and made from an aluminium core. The top mounts from the Camry were retrofitted to the front of the car and voila.
Please note though I have note done this only seen it... When I get round to it in a few weeks ill have more info....

Yes, not many ECU's can handle the Toyota VVTi. I am running an Autronic SM2 and it can't do it. Are running twin computers - the original IS200 and the Autronic in parallel.
Will be trying the VVTi off the IS200 computer as the original 1G-FE motor was VVTi. To do this have fitted dual sensors on the motor so that all functions required are fed to both computers.
Won't know if it is successfull until it is fired up. If not will have to try without the VVTi. They tell me that it won't effect the top end power and only makes a difference to the low down torque.
Only computers to control the VVTi correctly are Motec and AEM.

Some pics of my IC piping:
I tried to keep the piping as short as possible, which is why I went to the trouble of running the IC->throttle pipe through the radiator support. Note this requires relocating the battery.

Hi Stewart,
Yes they are cheaper to buy, but sometimes the shipping costs and GST/duty cahnge the end price considerably.
The best that I could get one here for was $185 ozzie from the states, but that implies no duty/GST, so for $209 from a local isn't too bad

Cheers for that Stewart,
Made a bid on one, but what is the difference between the 255lph and 255lph high pressure as per the link provided ?
GSS346(M) GSS307(M) 255 ltr/hr
GSS347 GSS315 255 ltr/hr
GSS348 GSS317 255 ltr/hr
GSS349(M) GSS340(M) high-pressure 255
GSS350 GSS341 high-pressure 255
GSS351 GSS342 high-pressure 255
I guess I'll soon find out !!!!!!

Cheers Stewart,
If things go to plan, I should be able to get the std 255lph (not HP) pump back here for about AUS $50.
As long as I stay below 60 psi fuel pressure, there is no real need for the HP version. Whhoooohhoooo
And I'll sell my 910 pump for heaps more

Please explain?
While the E6X and E11's VVTi controll functions are fairly limitted compared to the top-end Motecs, they are excellent for all the factory niceties (idle control, etc.) and give you a heap of in/output options (as welll as datalogging) that you don't get with the bottom-shelf ECU's like Wolf and Microtech. Base maps are also available for non-VVTi 1 and JZ's and 1GG's.
I'm not trying to hijack this thread into a "my ECU is better than yours", I'm just curious where than comment came from.

To my knowledge the Haltech is an excellent aftermarket ECU.. For almost all applications I would rate them up there with the motecs and autronics
As for the VVTi well yeah its a bit of a mystery....
Haltech has informed me that there E11v2 ECU will control the infintely variable timing but are unable to tell me how it does it without interfacing with the camshaft position sensor... ie was only speaking to sales staff (No technical people were able to give me a call back)
They said that they make a load/rpm map for it however theres no way it can be infanitely variable (upto 60 degrees that is) without the ecu being able to measure the rotation and position of the camshaft comparative to TDC!!
So unless Haltech can give me a definitive answer or anyone else can enlighten me I will maintain that despite the marketing material the Haltech does VVT and simple VTEC based on a load/rpm switch but not VVTi.

Sorry about the late reply, but the auction ended (only 2 hours left to bid) and I was at home 'cos I was covering nightshift. It ended up costing me USD $37.75 with postage being $18.75. The luink to the one I bid on was http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ewItem&item=7924045562&rd=1&sspagename =STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT and it seems his shipping rates are pretty good, so go for it yourself. Sorry I couldn't help, but it appeared that he didn't have another 255 lph one at the moment.

good to see it coming along But sorry I have no idea about wiring.
When you are done, you should sand back those pipes a bit and the plug cover. You can ask Jag7799 the difference as his pipes looked pretty much identical to what yours do at the moment. I know that this is probably the last thing on your mind at the moment though

I can email you a spreadsheet file with all the wiring from the VVTi motor if needed. I purchased the complete translated wiring diagrams - it was the best thing I did.
Also, with a bit of cleaning up the engine can look like mine. Keep up the good work - it is well worth the effort.

I'm not sure if this will help you or not, but I've got a brand new Power FC, boost control module and hand controller for an automatic JZX100. It definitely controls the VVTi, but I don't know how you'd go with using it on a manual converted car. I'm sure it would allow you to turn the shifting part off, although I'd check that with Apexi.
As far as I know, it's pretty rare, as I think it's the only Power FC model that is for an auto.
I wasn't planning on selling it, as I haven't even fitted it yet, but if you make me a nice offer, I could be talked into selling.

Michael

thats because you wired it all properly
the reason everyones goes into limp mode is cause they do shitty wiring jobs and then just assume its the manual box in place of the auto

You probably won't have much of a problem. Soarers have much better front-end airflow than MA61's (just compare the size of the grille) so I reckon your engine will stay cool even with a stock radiator.

My 2JZ did a similar thing when the MAP sensor was disconnected and the ECU went into limp-home mode. In your case the MAF sensor might not be hooked up properly and/or you have a big air leak somewhere. Check the ECU error codes, that will tell you for sure.

Yeah thats what I originally thought as well but after I hooked all the pipes up it did the same thing. Any idea on how to get the error codes out of her?

For a 2JZ, yes. For a VVTi 1JZ, no. Do you have a service manual?

No unfortunatly, I have no idea where you would pick up an english one, be very helpful though. Anyway how different to your car could it be ? It would have to be something to do with the diagnostics plug yeah?

If its like any other Toyota, you connect T1 and E1 in the diagnotic plug (Timing and earth)
That works for 5MGE and 7MGE, I don't have any experience with any other factory ecu's

I know you can get them from Penrith Toyota but if I can pick them up locally and quickly that would be better.
