ABANDONED BMW 732

s


This project is for my bro-in-law but due to some problem, it has been lying about 1 year with 50% work done. It may be look simple for a BMW to accept a 1JZGTE from a Supra MA70 but this conversion has a lot things to do especially it's braking system and steering system.







It took me 3 days to make it alive, I managed to start the engine after encountered engine wiring left by my friend with some not connected and some wrongly connected. So my 3 days balik kampung(back to hometown) to Batu Pahat Johor was gone but meaningful.



1st attempt: put in a battery and crank
Result:no sound at all

2nd attempt: alternator wired with battery ,tank inspection, installed fuel pump,supply and return lines and crank
Result: It can be cranked but can't start.


3rd attempt:wired whole system including ecu and fuel pump.
Result: Not fired, ECU has false code 12 which means no ignition due to bad crank angle sensor.

How to read fault code:
Open small diagnostic box near fuses box, jump TE1 and E1 by using a 5cm long wire. Turn key to ign and count the codes from engine check light.












example 1 code
21 flash flash... flash
or
34flash flash flash... flash flash flash flash


If 2 codes stored (one after another)
14 & 52flash...flash flash flash flash............. flash flash flash flash flash... flash flash


4th attempt: After fixing crank angle sensor then only got fired.
Result: Engine fired...Whoooah!

A lot more things to do such as body wiring, intercooler piping,clutch system,braking and propeler shaft.
