Well to start this off I will first tell you a little about my swap and what I am after as far as knowledge from all of you. I purchased a mostly complete 84-85 turbo 3.8 awhile back for an engine swap on my 93 Toyota pickup. When I say mostly complete I mean everything besides wiring. I have the motor installed in the truck now, exhaust is done, radiator and fans are on the way. My question to you all is what is the easiest way to wire these motors from scratch... I've seen the full wiring harness found on summit here: http://m.summitracing.com/parts/rfw-tb86?seid=srese1&gclid=COzOnpDKq7wCFWVxQgodoEcAYA. However the price is fairly high and the last thing want to do is pay extra for random censors and circuits that will not be used in this swap as it is pretty bare bones (electrical wise) since everything else on the truck is factory Toyota. To put it simpler I would just like input for a list of parts needed. I've read that the 86-87 model ecu and chip is needed for this wiring harness but I would like someone to clarify all that is need to take a motor with pretty much no wiring and make it run with no extra unneeded sensors or smog
