Heath. Posted September 28, 2012 Report Posted September 28, 2012 hahaha I'm kidding ;) but I am having a little bit of trouble with one component. I have just recently bought a 4age manual out of a (jap spec).. ae82 (1982) red top. big port and was fwd. but when I bought it, I didn't get an ecu or a dizzy. as it was from a wreckers. I went out not knowing this and bought an ecu for an ae92... and a dizzy to suit that same model. dam... :down: did not fit. so my question is. what ecu can I get for this piece of, lovely goodness engine I have taking up space at work. hahaha I have thought after market but even then I'm not sure cause there is so many to choose from. any help would much greatly appreciated!! :wasted: Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted September 28, 2012 Report Posted September 28, 2012 Easy option is getting the correct bigport loom. If the engine is stock there's no real point getting anything aftermarket. Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 If it is MAP just get an ECU and dizzy from an Aussie AE82 Twincam bigport... Quote
Heath. Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Posted September 29, 2012 well. i have tryed looking for an ae82 ecu and dizzy. and no one has anything of the sort. i have been on the phone for a week straight calling every wrecker i know. and even ones i didnt even know existed. and all of them told me the same thing. "there is no way you will find a whole loom" and "nar mate no way would we have anything from those corollas" I'm so lost i don't know where to look? Quote
Hiro Protagonist Posted September 29, 2012 Report Posted September 29, 2012 Don't bother with wreckers, just find someone selling a cheap wrecked Twinky and strip it for parts Quote
Heath. Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 holland park man ^ but yeah i thought the same about the wreckers after the first day. Quote
Heath. Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 well... id like to get it pretty soon.. but that all depends on what we are talking about. and how much? Quote
ke70dave Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 here is half your problem. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/4age-ecu-ae86-ae82-mr2-/221133180147?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item337c908cf3 Quote
Trev Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Well I have 2 harness and ecu combo's here, one I will be using on one of my projects and the other I am not sure how good it is but I do have another twincam 82 that I will be stripping as soon as I get it here. Quote
Heath. Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Posted October 1, 2012 hoe my god. alright. the twin cam 82.. if that turns out to be a jap one can i take the parts I'm chasin off it? but if its an austrailan devliered one, can i take the loom plus the ecu? I'm not too keen on getting something that could end up being dodgy. meaning one of the ones now you have now. but man thank you so much. i have been searching for ages hahaha ill pm my phone number so it is a bit easier Quote
Trev Posted October 2, 2012 Report Posted October 2, 2012 2 of the ECU's I have I know work, 1 is from my own car and the other car was purchased by a mate or the engine and we drove it, I have just never tested the other one. Quote
Heath. Posted October 3, 2012 Author Report Posted October 3, 2012 oh ok sweet as. when do you think you will get the ae82? Quote
