NA to TT swap

The Sad truth.....

I recently purchased a JDM 2JZ-GTE Rated @ 280 hp. I was going to leave the engine J-spec because.....its easier like that to just drop it in. Unfortunetely there are no connecters that go from the engine to the Engine bay fuse Box. Furthermore there is a connector on the harness that does not fit anywere onto the Us-Spec supra. This connecters consist of some 60 wires.....Also 2 of the 3 connectors to the ECU are present on the wireharness. The third either connected another ecu or was just imbedded in the j-spec body. It looks like im going to return the engine to the JDM depot or cought up around 6 more g's to get the engine stripped down and rebuilt to US-spec. I got lots of pics of it if anyone wants to see. I assure though, to the average mechanic its hopeless.
