SRT's 2GR Swap

[SRT4@DAB]

I know I started a introduction thread a couple of days back. I view that as more of just saying hiya! Not by any means a full on introduction.

Let me first bring everyone here up to date on when my swap was started, the original concept and where it is now and why.

**I will probably need to edit this since I have been up since 2 am local time and its currently almost 11pm** sorry for any typos in advance!

2 Years ago I publicly announced I was going to start this swap. My intentions then are different then they are now. Some because of research others because of life. I purchased my Mr2 Roadster knowing I wanted to do this swap before I had even heard of Blitzo's not to mention Gouky had not even built his then. I bought the car 5 years ago roughly and it was in need of some loving care. Blitzo basically told me it can be done but was not in much communication. So I started out driven the car and planning the project. The Evora was still code named Eagle here in the States and much of it was still Hush Hush. Then the big announcement of the 2GR mated to a 6 speed gearbox. Being Human I wanted to go down the path of least resistance so I decided I would build the drive train like Lotus. So I started saving money and making contact on Ebay.co.uk with breakers for parts I needed that were not sold in the USA.


I purchased brand new items from lotus to start the swap. These are no longer going to be used but I want to make sure no one else goes down this path with out knowing someone already tried.

Gearbox

I was pretty sure I was going to be able to use all of those parts. However after having my son then getting a case of viral meningitis my project fund started to dry up a tad. Ok a lot. All of those bits were not bought at the same time as I was having to find part numbers search wait for a nice person at the Lotus dealership to order them and await them to arrive from being made. The gearbox I found someone who didnt want to rape me on price in the UK and also was very fair on shipping so that was a quick process.


The engine from a local yard here in Florida. I drove the hour to Orlando to pick it up and was very very excited all the way there as it was still in the Avalon. To much of My surprise I was allowed out in the yard as they used a forklift to bring the car around to have me make inspect the engine. It looked great I told them yes I'll take it.
so they unbolted it and they started snatching it out of the donor. Then one of the workers noticed the engine was being held in to the car and decided to help get it out faster and yes you guested it cut the harness.

Not a major set back but just couple hundred bucks.

The avalon gave me many parts. Here are just a couple of pictures of them

I then test fit the items together.

alright mate the fit together!! :)


The car then was getting prepped to start the swap.

I bought a new RAV4 ECU from Toyota

http://streetroadandtrack.com/images/ECM/Forum/ecu%20013.jpg

which meant I no longer had a 5 plug harness need to I bought a 60 pin plug from a local yard.
http://streetroadandtrack.com/images/Donorparts/Forum/60pinplug04.jpg

there was some clearance issues with the gearbox and engine fitting unlike the MKII I was going to need to make some room.

a little bit of heat was used and a bit of "massaging" metal was done

Now that sir, is a build thread!

:)

Loving it.

Looking forward to reading the next instalment when you've caught up on some sleep?

Chris.

[Goldy]

Nice start..... Really looking forward to the next installment, it's a real cliffhanger!

Will he? Won't he?

[snowtigger]

I would be interested in how you got the six speed to work and if you have part numbers for the conversion parts or even know some one that could make them?
A few of us over here would be gagging for a six speed conversion.

[SRT4@DAB]

Tigg's the 6 spd is on hold right now. I sold mine off since they are uncommon here but I will be working on getting another. Another MR2 2GR driver has it and will being doing some more R&D on some solutions.

Sorry if some of this information is a bit redundant from other threads or even this one since I am playing catch up on the forum

So after I message the metal on the side box beams they looked something like

The black marks are from eyeballing it and seeing that I may need to do just a touch more.

I then mounted the engine in the car using a awfully made bracket.

Even though I had bought Gouky's I was trying to make a bolt in solution for the MKIII guys. (This ended up not happening and I bought a MKII mount) However, there is another person up in the Northern Central USA named FUE who is currently designing a bolt in mount.

With the EA60 gearbox and my mount I wanted to know ground clearance.

Now that the engine was in the car for the time being I started on the wiring.

So I took the 60 Pin A9 Connector and a Rav4 wiring Diagram and got the following information

I then took apart the standard cable throttle pedal. I then modified the bracket by drilling out a spot weld cutting a 90 degree wedge out to fold it over. I then re-welded the bracket with a reinforced piece. Having to tweak it and bend it this gave me a good rough draft of how to mount the pedal (A4 connector) Ideally the pedal needs to be moved towards the drivers side by about 9 to 13mm. I might have someone draw up a pretty cad drawing later.

I then bought a ZZW30 wiring diagram book somewhere in the process of the last few steps.

So the MR2 does not have CanH and CanL I have been talking with another forum member and through some discussions we believe it is just named differently.

TAC and TS also are not in the MR2 Spyder either so I am just going to add these pins.


The main reason I am discussing the wiring is I have convinced myself to try to make the car run with one ecu, making the dash and all the other equipment work just like it came from the factory. Utilizing just one OBD2 port. This is the reason why I am making such a detailed listing of the harness information.

I eventually want to make a list of which plug and pin needs to be spliced to the 2GR harness plug and pin to make everything copacetic.


Another forum member (from a different forum) I discovered something about the same time while on the phone. The MR2 C12-6 (Plug-Pin) is signal TACH. Which will need to be wired in a loop from C12-6 to E-13-9 to A9-15. (E-13 is part of the spyder harness maybe able to be completely removed)

We also identified C11-3 (MPX2) & C12-5 (MPX1) as CANH and CANL I will need to look into this further to find out which one is which.


The some trouble came up A9 style connect I had purchased for this swap came out of a 2010 Camry 2AR-fe. The connector is physically the same but the pin out is ONLY about 50% the same as the Rav 4 Harness. Almost one day was spent making a Tyco pin remover which needed to be made from a piece of steel that was 1mm wide by 10mm long by tall. The tip of the tool needed to be .2 mm so the last 3 mm had to ground down from 1mm to .2mm which is a slope of what 78 or something like that.

So I took apart the harness and they would not come out, Broke the tool and I was mad so I made another then I talking with someone the mention the little piece of plastic and said you know that a lock, and then I remembered reading about that but in a hurry I had forgotten about it. Spent the rest of the night moving some of the wires. The wires I did not need to more were the A4 (drive by wire), CanH, CanL, and the Battery wires, then there was an equal amount that I needed to have a pin that only had a rubber plug.

I metered the plug out to make sure all the wires have continuity and checking to make sure they are properly seated back into the plug.I ran the wires to the pedal and OBD2. I soldered the DBW wires from the ECU to the pedal. I routed the wires through the interior of the car in the center console area. I used adel clamps to hold the wires where I want.

I took apart the A9 connector, use a tool I made to remove the pins and relocate the pins to where I needed them. None of my wire colors match so I labeled each wire to which pin it went to and the signal it was.

I made my OBD2 in the MKIII configured to that of the Rav4, this required me to splice/solder some wires together as well as moving a pin.

Pin's 1-3,8,10-11, &15 are not used.
The following pins and signals are the same.
Pin 4 -=-=- CG
Pin 5 -=-=- SG
Pin 7 -=-=- SIL
Pin 13 -=-=- TC
Pin 16 -=-=- BATT

Pin 6 A/B I spliced in CANH from A9-10

Pin 9 I added TACH. To do this I harvested a pin and wire from a spare OBD connector.

Pin 12 I added a pin in the same method from the spare connector then spliced it into the TS signal. (green and red wire) I cut the wire and simply soldered on the new lead.

Pin 14 I spliced in CANL from A9-11


These wires were cut and soldered to a new wire I ran across the rear firewall. these wires shared signals and were almost the exact same circuit laid out. The letters in parenthesis are for the Mr2 harness. Which to my knowledge all years are the same, unlike the Rav4.
A9-1 -=-=-=-=-=-=- to E2-1 (B-Y) Batt
A9-2 & 3 -=-=-=-=- to BC2-5 ( +B(added +B2))
A9-28 -=-=-=-=-=- to E2-8 (B-R) IGSW
A9-34 -=-=-=-=-=- to E3-21 (GR) MREL
A9-52 -=-=-=-=-=- to E2-3 (G-R) FC
A9-24 -=-=-=-=-=- to E2-15 (YR) W (which converts on the Rav4 to EFI. The Rav4 ECU is not 100% happy so I borrowed a Camry ECU which was a little bit more happy but not as much as I would have liked.

About this time I got deathly ill with a case of viral meningitis. Spending almost 3 weeks out and lots of cash spent on hospital bills, we can talk about health care in a different thread. :)

I had the car for sale and many offers for the car with the hard top for much less than 3 thounsand USD. Which was a joke to me. So I bought a MKII NA auto that I was just going to swap the 2GR into MKII and call it done. However, after talking with a few people they motivated me to get back in the game with the Spyder. The EA60 with no starter mount and funky gear linkage is out. I will come back to this another day. I bought a 93+ E153 with LSD and will do the axles using MKII LSD Turbo inner stubs and 1990 v6 Camry Outter bits. The Flywheel / clutch from lotus is also gone. I bought a 9.5 Lbs flywheel and APR bolts from Forward Motion Performance.

Epic thread so far, I'm loving that flywheel!

[SRT4@DAB]

It is quite brilliant I plan on getting an assembly weight on it for reference purpose only. It truly is a work of art and its a certified unit. I still plan on buying a ballistic sheet to cut to fit on the rear firewall. That is just because later I want to be able to track the car at driver education events at some events here.

[SRT4@DAB]

My phone is being stubborn with tapatalk today. So apologies in advance. This is a slow build but it's being done in spare time.

Went to the local junkyard (self service breaker) bought 1991 Camry v6 complete axels and cv's for about £15. These will be fitted to the MKII inner axle stubs. They measure out properly and convert the tripod style to rzeppa-style. I also took the abs ring from the Spyder and fitted them to the new (to me) axle.

I purchased a 275 litre per hour fuel pump from deatschwerks. Fitted the pump to the fuel tank. While fitting the fuel pump, I also replaced the fuel filter with a new Beck Arnley 043-3005 purchased from eBay.


The 65c has a barbed feed supply. which required use of a round file on the plastic grommet that was on the OEM pump. A few minutes later it was fixed. If you look at the picture you can see the barbs.

I also purchased the A/C compressor, alternator and starter for the engine. In case I forgot to put that in the thread. Bought another rear crossmember to modify recently too.

I have fitted the clutch and flywheel to the 2gr as well. To secure the flywheel I used APR bolts and red lock tight.

[Grenade]

You are doing a fantastic job. Great build, great thread- it seems like you're well versed in the swap data. One of those MKIII's with a 2gr? Man- I gotta get out more...

[cdwood2010]

Just re-read your thread again. Very interesting stuff.

We are at a similar place i think, although I'm building a 2GR Mk2. I have some notes on the 2 plug ecu, and looking at some of the pinouts you've listed they seem to differ slightly. My 2GR is from a 2007 Rav4, so it may be the subtle nuances between vehicles, but probably worth checking. I've also identified all the pins for the DLC (OBD2) i think. We will find out this afternoon as I'm putting all the wiring together!

Happy to share my notes and findings if they would be of use?

Also if you're fitting a new ECU (ouch btw) then you do not need the immobiliser. Paul Woods builds a 2GR with a new ECU and he has confirmed that on first power up the ECU will imprint immob / non-immob depending on what it sees connected. If you connect the immob, you may need to reprogram the key / antenna / immob / ecu configuration, and that can be a real pain as i have recently found out.

Keep those pics coming! We love pics!

[SRT4@DAB]

There are a few of us in the states that are doing this swap. Fue is making a bracket for the engine to mount to the standard roadster chassis.

http://www.twobrutal.co.uk/forum/images/recovered/2013/04/334.jpg



How ever I am using the MKII mount for now. This may cause a issue for me later down the road but I have a grinder that can unistall the welds :)

I may also go to the vipec ECU.

It will be interesting to see what you have paired together.

Sure no problem. All mine came from the electrical wiring diagram from Toyota.

Mine was a non immob ecu same as my car.

PM me an email address and i can send you what i have.

I've done a few 3VZ swaps, but this is my first 2GR swap, and i have found a lot of my wiring notes for the 3VZ very useful too.

:)

Mr. Wood

Thanks for the info. I'll merge into my spreadsheet. did you finish your wiring last night?

[cdwood2010]

Very welcome, hope it proves of use.

And no, I reckon I'm about halfway through, corrected myself in a couple of places, then had a light bulb moment on a couple of things like the stray alternator wires.

It's very much a hobby (obsession almost) playing with car related things. I spend a lot of time out and about, just got back from a 7hr round trip to Wales and the last thing on my mind is sitting in a cold garage!

Thank god I'm not trying to earn a living with it, I'd starve.

:)

[SRT4@DAB]

It's been cold here too! High is like 26 Celsius. If it was my only way of making money I would be starving along with the boss damn I mean wife and out child.

[cdwood2010]

26 degrees. Not sure how you cope. It's already down to about 2c at night.....

WHen you start on the wires let me know. I will try to find and help as much on the vipec. I've been busy with school.

[NoobieMRS]

Here is what I was talking about.

[SRT4@DAB]

Good info. I will think about doing this.

[SRT4@DAB]

So I have gotten back into the mood to continue to work on the swap. I have decided before I go any further I need to make an access panel in the firewall. I think it will be an oval shape. I also was decided I needed to be the first 2GR with a WideBody in my part of the world. So I ordered a APR kit. It arrives next monday via a freight carrier.

[SRT4@DAB]

Building the axles was straight forward. However after assembling them one has more slack than I would like to have. The other was too tight and would not allow the CV to move in any direction. I tired to rotated the CV to take it apart and it was jammed. Ended up using some force and brook the inner bearing race. So a new one will be ordered.

I also removed the e153 carrier bracket from the stub axle and replaced it with the carrier axle that comes standard with the 2GR.

[cdwood2010]

Bloody hell. On the Mk2's we used a replacement part, as neither the 2GR one or an E153 one would fit.

[SRT4@DAB]

I did some rough measure so I could fit it in the morning currently at work. However it appeared that it would work.

[SRT4@DAB]

Noob , or Fue as I know him by says it will most likely not fit by a few mm. Tomorrow I will check but it appeared to be correct earlier.

that lower right one is going to be a real P.I.T.A. to get in properly.

[dgh938peg]

If the other two bolts are loose and you cannot get the bolt in (which it looks like they are) then take the carrier off and check you can get a bolt in the thread anyway (possibly the wrong bolt or the thread in the block is screwy. If the bolt DOES go in ok then I'd probably put a slightly larger drill through the carrier; 10mm bolts I'd drill it out to 12mm happily. :thumbsup:

[SRT4@DAB]

Its the right bolt, the trouble is that the axle / CV plate radius is in the way I may have to bolt it in then slide the axle in...

[dgh938peg]

I see what you mean - in which case I concur with your solution.

[snowtigger]

Thought about a stud and nut arrangement?
Then you can plop it over the stud like a locating dowel and bolt the other two up.

[cdwood2010]

I may have to bolt it in then slide the axle in...

That's how I put mine together.

[NoobieMRS]

That axle is a bitch. Every time I take it off, I find it easier with little tricks of knocking it in and out of the carrier. I should had made the plate to use the left two bolt holes and the upper right bolt hole. it would had been easier and save time.
