Apparently it is engine to the ECU and I will send him this thread info. He wanted to find one in Australia but I didn't think he had a hope.

Thanks very much for advice.

Wiz, when you say "a full wiring loom to the ECU", do you mean from the engine to the ECU, or the body loom to the ECU? Also, there isn't such a thing as a 4SGTE. There's just a Rev 4 3SGTE.

Anyway, RPM garage has an original 1997 JDM loom for sale – pretty crazy prices though. I've bought a few things off RPM Garage, and never paid the orginal listed price, so I'd make an offer knocking quite a bit of what's they're asking and there's a good chance they'd accept it.

Each section is listed seperately and they seem to have two sets for sale:
The engine loom: https://rpmgarage.com/index.php?id_product=1408&controller=product&id_lang=1&search_query=mr2&results=142
https://rpmgarage.com/index.php?id_product=1274&controller=product&id_lang=1&search_query=mr2&results=142

The body loom: https://rpmgarage.com/index.php?id_product=992&controller=product&id_lang=1&search_query=MR2+turbo&results=115
https://rpmgarage.com/ind...+turbo&results=115

Another option is buying one off yahoo auctions in Japan, via Importmonster. That would work out MUCH cheaper once you found a listing for the right bit of the loom. Here's one of an unknow year (for a 3SGTE) with every single bit of the car's wiring, currently going for $69. (Postage and importmonster's commision would be on top of the price, but you can calculate an estimate for the total cost on the importmonster site.)

You friend could buy that, then have an auto electrician re-pin anything tha's not in the right place and still come out way ahead.

I have a friend who has a 1998 SW20 Turbo import who requires a full wiring loom to the ECU. Are these a 3GSTE loom or is there a 4GSTE loom for the Gen4?

Sorry...don't know much about the turbo models.
