2jz-gte aristo swap into an s13... :P

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a little help with my project. I acquired a 2jz-gte from an aristo, imported into the USA. I'm swapping this into a 1991 240sx (s13) nissan... I know it's strange, but what the hell, it'll be fun.
Anyways, I'm running into a few snags here. First, I can't find the wiring diagram for the aristo version of this motor !! It's not quite the same as our TT supra 2jz and i want things to be correct. My ECU is a 89661-30870 . Apparantly it was only on the 93+ v300 model? I'm not too informed on the aristo models so it's difficult for me to track down the info I need.
If ANYONE can help me out, I need the engine wiring diagram, part placement, ECU pinout diagrams. It's an automatic, with the 4spd, so I assume it's an A340 trans right?
One other thing, do all the aristos come with a TRD gauge cluster or does this mean anything special about the motor ? Over here, there are no stock parts with TRD on them... lol.
If you can provide any information, post it here or email it to me at rickjamessghost@gmail.com . I'll be here a lot looking for information.
Thanks!!!
Dave

From memory my Toyota manuals contain wiring diagrams for all the "U" and "J" series engines. Jeff Harper sells CD copies of my Toyota Manuals. Contact Jeff through the Australain Lexus Soarer Owners Club.

That website comes up blank for me. Anyone out there got a copy willing to send the file to me? I'm in an extreme rush and ordering something from aus and having to wait who knows how long is really going to screw things up.
Also, any responses on my other questions? Seems like people down there are the only ones really putting out the s13 / skyline 2jz swaps..
All help appreciated.

FWIW I wired up my Aristo engine using the USDM Supra wiring diagrams. For the stuff you need to hook it up to the body loom (which is no more than a dozen wires) it's the same. The differences are mostly in the engine wiring and the ECU itself, and you don't have to touch them at all.

I know somebody who I've actually seen with 1jz ecu pinouts he told me downloaded. Dunno where from. His swap was auto. Runs like oe. IF I see him, I'll ask. mk3 supra swap 1 and 2j, did you go there ?
http://www.supraforums.com/ on the "jz swap" sections ?
They're 1 and 2j s13 swaps about the u.s.... here's a 1j s13 http://www.garageworksltd.com/1JZ_S13.htm
they may could point u in the right direction

They are few and far between. A nice writeup is at http://members.shaw.ca/kfgroup/240sx_-_2jz.htm
There are a few places where the harness is cut, and I don't have a map sensor so I'm trying to make sure everything is cool and what I need. The supra runs MAF, the aristo apparantly runs MAP, correct? First we get to wrestle the motor into the car, but that shouldn't be too hard. It's also a straight drag car, so I'm not worried about modifications or legality. I just want to find those diagrams so I can make it all work right.
Thanks!
Dave

Arrgh, I'm trying to get onto supraforums but their registration is locked and all the bugmenot logins don't work. Isn't that supposed to be a public forum? I've sent a few emails to the admins, but haven't heard back... Anyone wanna spend a minute and see if the diagrams are there?
Thanks!

If you've got a hacked loom and you're building a drag car, your best bet is to throw it away and wire up a standalone. The stock ECU will really hold you back once you start chasing power.
If you really want the stock engine management though, you might be better off chasing down a US-spec ECU and loom. At least that way you'll have easy access to wiring diagrams and people local to you will know what to do with it. The US version can also support much more power stock.

im going to back up Norbie's suggestion and DEMAND that you throw away the stock ECU.. and replace with a standalone ECU.
Then you wont get 2 weeks down the track after getting it running and saying
"FARK!! I want more power but i didnt listen to the Aussie's suggestion and kept the stock ECU... now im stuck with its pissweak limitations......Weak!"
sounds like a nuts car though - please document your build and keep us all updated!
