Ricky's picture is of a GenII, on the GenIII it is supposed to have the fuel pressure regulator there (looks like a little mushroom yoke that connects to a vacuum source). The GenII has the FPR at the gearbox end, but the GenIII has it at the cambelt end.

I'm surprised that ST did not give you one??? either way you need to get one either from him or the guy that took the engine away.

I may have a GenII one kicking around somewhere from when I changed my own, but I'm not 100% sure if it would actually fit.

Here's a photo of a rev3 with the fuel pressure regulator attached.

Thanks lads finally now know what I'm looking for and hopefully got one for tomorrow all depending on post... This seems to be the only thing holding me back from getting tk this meet on Sunday.. So fingers crossed all goes well.

Don't forget that you will also need that vacuum hose that is shown in the photo.

Hey Darc,

Just been reading the progress on the engine transplant with great interest..
The bit thats missing is the fuel pressure regulator as the lads were saying.. sold it 2 another lad from Cork a few weeks before you collected the engine.. dident even occur to me to mention it. I have a non turbo gen3 engine with fuel regulator.. not sure if they are the same but will check this evening and if you still need it then more then welcome to it.
Cheers
ST

If I was you Darc, I would use this opportunity to buy an adjustable fuel pressure regulator. It will come in handy for when you want to increase the power

@Marty J Thanks for the remidner for the hose... Also wont be getting the adjustable fuel pressure regulator at the moment, just need to rein in the spending insurance cost way more than it was ment to etc im over budget by about 2k already KC+1 for the picture

@St No worries about forgetting to mention it, were all human at the end of the day and we mis things.. ya be great if you can let me know are the same. but might have one sourced now

@Quandry Thanks for the offer of thhe REV II fuel pressure regulator was talkin to toyota earlyer when trying to figure out what part was missing before i got back to a computer and they were saying they are not compatible and there are 3 different types of fuel pressure regulator for the REV III 3SGTE engine, 2 have been discontinued and 1 is still in prodocution so this might be a hard part to find in the future.

there is light at the end of the tunnel!!!

Hmmm dear enough even for a secondhand one cgi.ebay.ch/Benzindruckregler-Toyota-Cel...-Turbo-/290400860092

Sorry mate I was told they were all the same (by someone that should know better) I have a rev3 one fitted to mine mite be why its over fueling?

Someone on here is selling an adjustable FPR...sure I saw an ad....someone selling their car. Was it Dan?

EDIT:

Here it is

Right we have these two pipes coming out that cant figure out where they go, also think i might have left the hose on the old engine which is no more.. anyone any idea what they are where they go etc. and what pipe can i use for it as its missing?

Got a fuel pressure regulator this morning going to be fitting it in a short while..
So these pipes and then it looks like were all go for lift off.

Those look to be the coolant bypass pipes

Not sure where the other one goes, possibly to the throttle body coolant pipes..?

This website may be useful to look through as it is well anotised:

That's a damn shame Darc

Darc's first photo, they are the turbo water pipes. The L shaped one goes to the water housing. The second pipe joines to the circled one in the other photo.

You will be able to work it out from this link.

I think Marty is right and I am wrong. The size of the pipes gives it away.

Well done Marty

We are just there! i have a cable that im not sure where its going its a ground from the Gear box and not sure if it should go to the starter or is the started indepentantly grounded... could not find anything online about it.

Post up a pic and we can hopefully sort it out.

dont have any pics of it im not around it today my mate just rang me asking me about the grounding.. he is lost.. ill see what i can dig up in manuals or something

Not sure if this pic is any use to you? (not my car btw )

_KUNENA_BBCODE_HIDEIMG

From memory there is a really thick ground that bolts to the gearbox (to carry the starter current), and then there is a standard gauge ground with a plug on it around that area also.

Which one is the problem with and I'll get a photo of where mine goes from and to.

Grand thanks! just rang him with that he gonna strap the thick one to the starter and see how he gets on!

"lucking" wow, i love thread like this.

Well the MR2 roared into life at first turn over yesterday so today going to fire the mr 2 up again today get it up to running temp and make sure no bangs, leaks or rattles. and then the road test. Will report back later on about how we get on..
