This was a big decision, I wanted the PROEFI 128 features on my build and here it is. After two weeks of waiting it's finally here.


Dude amazing build. You're making me so jelly right now

Are you using your IS300 harness on the build with the P&P ProEFI harness or the Aristo harness on that P&P ProEFI?

Is there anything that doesn't work? ie. traction control or MPG gauge?

So you're using 100% the GE harness + GE ECU with the standalone ProEFI and not an Aristo Harness/ Aristo ECU+ProEFI?

I'm using the GE harness along with the is300 ProEFI pnp harness and the IS300 ECU. I extended some wires on the GE harness since I wanted to route the wires a particular way, the the coolant temp sensor plug was swapped with the Aristo one since they are different other than that everything plugs right in.

I will not be using cruise control and is probably the only thing that is not going to be working on my car. MPG is not going to be accurate since I'm using 2000cc injectors, but I did see the gauge moving. The ProEFI is going to handle the traction control and is one of the reasons I went with ProEFI.

Induction Performance has been diagnosing the issue causing the misfire and to run rich. A broken tooth on the crank trigger wheel was found, most likely it's the cause of the issue. The crank timing gear has been order from Toyota and the car will probably be ready for a tune tomorrow.

Just waiting for it to be my turn for the car to get tuned.

I was bored today and decided to remove the LSD from an MK3 Diff, thinking about doing the MAXGRIP #1 kit.

As the time for the tune was approaching there were a few things that were discovered that needed to be fixed in order for the tune to be completed. This includes wiring the non driven wheel sensor for traction to be enabled, I had a Tial MVR 44mm wastage adapter flange which allowed my Precession Turbo wastegate to rotate, the ProEFI will need to be relocated so that the hood can close properly, I also need to take care of a minor exhaust leak on a clamp by the muffler, one of the heater core hose is really close to the downpipe which will probably be either rerouted or looped and two abs lines are also really close to the downpipe. I picked up the car today from Induction Performance and will be working on it to get it ready.

Wassup bro, I was thinking on getting a aristo engine as well and keeping it with the stock twin turbos. My main concern is the drive shaft and wiring. I also live in south Florida, know anyone who could do the build?

Things get very tight on the IS300 especially with twins. I do have a buddy that does 2JZ swaps in my area and he has been my source when ever I had a question on my build, or ordering any parts he would help out, he also did all my custom exhaust work and intercooler piping. In your case since you are keeping the stock twins you would need to run the aristo harness and aristo ecu which would require the wiring to be done. Just PM me if interested ,he can get this done professionally and for a reasonable price.
