Tech support post your question here...
You need to disconnect the lines in the engine bay also. If you going to do this your going to need to replaced the receiver/dryer. Everytime you open the system up you let water in it and the deicant bags that hold the water in the system are bad. Along with that you might as well replace all the o rings so that you don't have a issue with them popping off when you re pressurize the a/c system. Its like 2 1/2 pounds of refridgerent to recharge it. BTW did you ever get that key lock clyinder taken car of?
and has anybody tried puting in IS300 in the rear of a SC?
Yeah the center console has to go cause the glovebox gets stuck on that piece. Also I think there is a wingnut that you get by the cluster so the center console has to come out.
The whole dash has to come off to get access to it. Center console has to come off too. You need to take the cluster out and also drop the steering wheel ,but not remove the wheel. Thats a 2 person job so you can get it done quicker and not damage the dashboard.

SO i am having some rear alignment issues so I wanted to know Does anyone have a service manual type of pic of where the asentric (i think that what they are called) bolts and mounts are for rear wheel alignment. I was told that my driver side rear area could have some issues in this area but i can imagine what it looks like even if i looked myself
This is what they should look like. There are different types ,but one of those has to be for the car lol. There should be 4 total on the rear for the toe and camber. Are you going to buy the parts and have them install them or what? Your taking it to a shop to do the alignment right? lol

Thanks for the pics bro....
But i got a good one now... Whats the difference between the vvti head of a GE engine and non vvti head. I am talkin physicaly ? i seen a lot of guys over on SF that are NA-T and are going with COP (coil over plug spark) to get rid of the distributior. But i see that some of them use the coil packs and ignitors off the vvti head. Woud it be possible to run the vvti head but with non vvti internals basically making it a non vvti head but still using certin parts to retain the COP. Sounds kinda weird when i read it back to my self but i hope someone understands what i am trying to say

i dont understand these instructions for the wiring.they are in english but look like chinese...all i get is where the Red wire goes and the Black wire.
Connecting the LC-1
3. LC-1 Cable connections:
3.1 Out of the LC-1 come 3 cables:
A. Interface and power cables with 6 stripped ends:
a. Red 12V supply
b. Blue Heater Ground
c. Metallic System Ground
d. Yellow Analog out 1
e. Brown Analog out 2
f. Black Calibration wire
B. Serial In connection, 2.5mm stereo (female) marked as IN
C. Serial Out connection, 2.5 mm stereo (female) marked as OUT.
4. Connect the 12V supply wire to a switched 12V source in your car. A switched 12V source
goes on as soon as the ignition on the car is on. Make sure the connection is fused with a
fuse of minimum 5A.
5. Connect the Heater Ground wire to a chassis ground. Make sure it has a good ground
connection.
6. Connect the System Ground to where you will use the analog out signals. If you use the
analog out signals as input for an ECU or datalogger, connect the system ground to the
ground of the ECU or datalogger.
7. Optionally connect the analog out signals to their intended devices.
8. Optionally connect a pushbutton switch between ground and the calibration wire.
9. Optionally connect a indication LED between the calibration wire and ground. The following
diagramm shows how to connect the pushbutton and indication LED.
