Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 29-03-2022
Well last couple of days ive been very busy!! The weather has not been brilliant but that aint stopped me lol

Well picked up my intake manifold after getting the throttle body position moved and thats now perfect so should not have any more dramas, also made a new throttle cable bracket and fitted my vacuum take offs so i do not need a separate vacuum manifold!

Sorted the wiring for the fan relays that are now controlled by the link ecu just going to route these inside the wing as well so they are hidden.

oh and did the speed sensor and back up light wiring nearly forgot about these as they are on the gearbox out of sight out of mind as they say lol
Ive got half way through the ecu plug on the bulk head and only have a few wires left in the passenger foot well so all heading in the right direction ill get some more pictures tomoz should complete most of the wiring hopefully!!
Obviously got alot of touch up work to do in the engine bay like rubbing down and spraying brackets as there is rust!!! lol and ill more likely fill all the redundant holes but i dont think ill have time to spray as still got to get the map on this and have a play to fine tune a few parts

Well it has been a little while and should of updated this sooner really!!!
Where i left off i finished all the wiring of the Link ECU with some help from Stav giving me pointers then when it came to the big moment of starting its was not so big!! Found out Thor had forgot to send me the unlock code then had trouble starting due to timing settings! All fun and games i was calm and collective promise LMAO
Once started i played around with map Stav had sent me so i could get it to Jap Power and all was successful on that front.
Had my wheels refurbed and new tyres fitted, then just tidied up few loose ends with the wiring to make a little more pretty lol

After Jap show i decided it was time to get my exhaust sorted so that it was 3" all the way through as my back box and rear resonator was not. I used Powerflow in Bury St Edmunds in the end and also decided rear resonators going! Lets just say she sounds an animal!

Also i have now removed the steering wheel and gone with quick release aftermarket one just because i fancied it really lol i only got cheap bits off ebay but ill be exchanging these part for the NRG boss and quick release

Now T-Lex still needs mapping but i have now just unlocked the internal knock feature in my ECU so i am going to have a bit more playing time and see how i get on ive been reading up on it even payed for a course with HP Academy to do so i can learn this mapping magic! Hopefully save us all a few pennies
Apologies for being so quiet on the forum i am the first to say oh its quiet on here ppl need to post lol
