Holy moly, I see that your channel has grew quite much, wishing you all the best!

love this build... always loved these celica i remember when my guy got one brand new... time flies... but this is how they should of built the celica...

Great to see progress. Just subbed to see more of this while binging the previous videos

That engine will be running soon! 👍

When you stop cranking, what in the hell is that awful noise?? It makes me cringe everytime! Digging into a motor scares the heck out of me, im in the IT field by trade & own my own computer repair business and Ive learned motherboards and how theyre powered pretty well. To me, it seems like theres a spark issue. Either low voltage or something is miswired. How is flipping that switch give the system so much juice its backfiring? I've been riding sportbikes for many years and I can work on them but car engines are more intimidating, I will master an engine one day. My son is almost 2, my dream is to put a 2J into a 98 s10 single cab, and it will be his one day. I swear to god it will happen. What motivates me even more is my wife laughs at the idea. Haha, bring it on baby!! Btw, i love the celica and 2j idea!

YES! The challenge is very motivating, the awful noise is the automatic transmission ring gear getting slightly nicked by the starter when it disengages. From what I know this is normal but the sound is just amplified greatly because the ring gear almost acts like a speaker dies to not having a torque converter and instead having a flywheel only bolted to the center of the ring gear

interesting build...a BOMEX style front bumper would look good with those headlights.

That’s the plan

Yessirrrr you got this!

I love this build but I am sure the Snap-On salesman loves him more. You don't get that Snap-On jacket he's wearing by being a broke boi. THAT'S FOR SURE!

There’s actually funny story behind that, I don’t by snap on tools but my dad does for his shop and he spent $14k on scan tools, my dad only wanted the little pen screw drivers but the salesman gave him 4 jackets for my family to go with it 😂

Whaaa my brother has one in black. Darn thing is heated as well and he for sure broke broke. Now i have to ask him

Haven't watched other episodes but if you changed coil packs and triggering coils while turning ignition off and on could be that coil packs wait for low trigger and when you turn ignition off, they receive low trigger and fire. Or ECU is triggering spark when you turn ignition on. Either way, check which signal coils require to trigger, is it losing 12v to signal or receiving 12v to signal. Could be also trigger problem or just faulty wiring.

From bench testing the coils, they seem to spark when given power, not necessarily when power is added or removed. I tested the coil pack in the engine with a 12v battery and litterally shocked myself to find out it will spark when power is applied across all pins. I plan to look into it more over the next few days along with getting other work done so that it can idle

What are you using for a power steering rack? looks like it's going through the basepan. Also, what rear end?

I and using a steering rack out of a fox body mustang, I will not be running power steering and because I swapped the sides the steering knuckles where originally on I had to get a rack that steers backwards to the celica rack. The rear end is pulled straight from a g35 coupe, the 350z rear end is the same if you are curious

What intake is that?

One off eBay, I honestly don’t remeber

You probably need a ground to the motor maybe

It’s solid mounted to the frame so that’s the ground

Timing sound 180 out of

The ecu isn’t communicating properly with the coil packs, currently working on figuring it out

The fuel lines are leaking which is why I haven’t turned the fuel pump on, but it should be able to fire a few times with starting fluid regardless, that’s why it let out that one bang was because it had starting fluid in the cylinder but it wasn’t sparking to ignite it until I turned the coils and ecu off and back on

But it looks for the right amount of fuel pressure to turn on the ECU looks for that or no start for motor

I don’t have a fuel pressure sensor, just a regulator so maybe, I’ll look into other stuff but I’ll keep that in mind as a possibility. I’m running a Haltech elite 750 if you know the specifics on how those work

If check for spark and the timing again

Sounds like timing because it will fire out of time but more likely electrical.. i know the ecu you put in it requires a dedicated power…. But the way you were figuring out where the wires were goinh or didnt know to begin with make me worry about electrical fires.. seriously.. if youre not 100% on your wiring than its a good idea to start from the beginning and make sure all your grounds are set correctly (a loose ground can just as easily start a fire). I would even go so far as to draw out a complete wiring diagram.. would save future headaches.. but all the exposed solenoid terminals and loose connections is not what you want to have on a project car with this much time, effort and money has gone into.. look at that one youtuber who finally got his dream car, a supra, then the damn thing randomly caught fire on the trailer .. fucked. Couldnt imagine .. prevention, protection, perfection.. ( • )( • )Ԅ(‾⌣‾ԅ) Boobies….
