Default Tweak new Harness

I ordered brand new hardness from Tweak however, there are couple plugs look used but in good shape. Gauge Cluster is also sent to Tweak so everything should be plug and play.

How long did the cluster take @ tweak'd performance to come back? I am thinking about sending mine in but just want to get a rough idea of a turn around time. I like how you are working on the car, keeping it simple and clean! GL,

I'm also planning on using Tweak'd for my harness. Did you send them a reference harness? As Lokz asked, what was your turnaround like from the time you ordered? I'm reluctant to send my cluster in personally but I'm sure they take excellent care. Looking good so far!

The whole process took about 3 weeks. After they received my core harness and cluster; it took them about 5 working days to send the package. I suggest you contact Cam or Joshua for more information.
Thanks

Yes, I exchanged many emails with Cam a year ago and he was extremely helpful. I'll follow up with him again when it comes time to order-- I'm still collecting parts at this point. Keep us posted!

Why did you need to swap the gas tank? Please excuse my ignorance, I'm just curious.

98-2000 SCs don't have a return line to the tank, it's just a feed line and the fpr is in the tank , SO some people just replace the whole tank with an older style tank.

I would just run my own return line !!

Default Precision 6766 Turbo Charger

Just received the Precision 6766 journal bearing turbo today. It is only 500miles and dyno on Carlos's 1JZ making 825HP. The turbo is powder coated flat black compressor housing with antisurge 4" inlet, 3" outlet, .81 hot side, T4, and elbow welded. I'm going to sale the Garrett GT42 because it is too big for me.





Huge different in size

Default Missing Power Steering Plug

These are four plugs on the driver side. Two black plugs go to the fuse box and the gray plug to AC compressor. The white plug go to the sensor next to the factory mounted igniter. IT IS MISSING THE POWER STEERING AND HORN PLUG. I CANNOT BELIEVE TWEAK PERFORMANCE MISSING SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

The Horn (H7 & H8) is not part of the Engine Wire Harness. I also noticed that the Data Link Connector 1 (Check Connector) D1 is missing




On the Wire Harness I received from Tweaked Performance One of the Power Steering plugs was omitted (see Photo Below) I ask and was told it was not needed. After installing all seems to be working fine.

Thats why sometimes it is better to attempt the harness build yourself so in case you miss something you can go back and fix it yourself....it is really not that hard

I would be pissed if I spent $1000 on a harness and it wasnt perfect....some people still dont either have there A/C working or havent been able to get the car to start on the tweak harness....Surprises me for that kind of money that they still mess things up
