I have an s13 with a 2jz swap installed. We done all the wiring our selves rather than send off, get pre wired, etc... Everything works, fuel pump, injectors, starter, turns over and all that good stuff. Cant get fire on the plugs ! We've switched out coil packs, crank sensor, cam sensors, ingnitor, ecu, plugs, all that good stuff. Still same problem persists, Any one know a good "Shop" or "Person" located in FL that would be good to trouble shoot this problem without charging tons of $$ to fix or attempt to fix ? I'm from NC but working in Port St. Lucie, not far from west palm beach. I am bringing the car down next week when I go home for christmas. I know Titan is in Orlando, Just trying to get it going for cheap as possible. I'm assuming a wire or wiring is not exactly where it needs to be, not hooked up, etc.. Any help would be greatly appreciated ! thanks..

Did u run power to the ignitor/coils (black and orange wire) from a switched/fused/relay power source?

-have your coolant sensor hooked up (ecu)?
-no fire on any plugs or just the front 3?

You know, I'm not exactly sure if we did or not. Is this required for me to get spark ? I assumed they'd power up with the oem harness without running any additional wiring but that may be why I am not getting any spark. Do I need to run it to the ignitor or each coil or... ?

I'm not sure about the coolant sensor, does that go in the upper water neck on the passenger side ? No fire on any plugs.

Yes, it is required. U have to run switched power to the coilspacks and ignitor. Find the thick black and orange wire that splits all the way to the coils and ignitor and run power to it.
If u have he IJ1 connector plug of the 2j harness, u can fine it there.

Ok, Tried some of these things, still cant get the car to start. I brought the car back to Florida with me now so I am wanting to know if anyone knows anyone in the Florida area that is good troubleshooting stuff and knowledgeable with the 2JZ engine/240 swap ?? I am in the port St Lucie area, near west palm beach on the east coast. The objective is to get it fixed for a cheap/fair price, I know Titan motorsports is in FL and may end up just taking it to them b/c I know they know their stuff on these cars/engines. Any help/recommendations will be appreciated. Looking for an individual that can do this or shop, NOT a 45/65 $$ an hr shop thats gonna hand me a /$1000 bill once its running. Thanks ! you can reply back here or text me 828 980 1700

also if u are running toyota relays they are negitive trigger not positive so those may be hooked up backwards. my friend said he has a full harness that works and he said he would sell it for $400 obo.
