Default 1jz extending wires.

What exactly do you do when extending the body plugs. Do you cut the wires and solder in 20-25" extra wire and then attach the body plugs on the ends?

the ecu plugs don't need to be extended. just the body plugs, to reach the harnesses near the floor. The ecu can hang there, and it's pretty secure. I haven't had an issue yet.
