trdsupra900 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 At this website phoenixtuning.com they offer plug and play harness for a 2jz and there linked with 2jzswap.com. I e-mailed phoenixtuning.com a while back and they told me that it will cost $450 to do the wiring, is that a good price for wiring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I e-mailed phoenixtuning.com a while back and they told me that it will cost $450 to do the wiring, is that a good price for wiring? I'd say so - well, only if that means they mate your Z harness and the 2JZ harness so it's totally plug-n-play and there is some sort of warranty on the work.

SR240Z Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 We did a 2jz swap into an S13 that had brought the conversion parts and wiring harness from 2jzswap.com and the wiring was completely hacked and missing an entire plug. We pretty much had to do most the wiring over again... definitely not worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2jzswapper Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hi this is Sean from 2jzswap.com, did you get your harness done before the end of December 2007? I didn't start doing harnesses for 2jzswap.com in the end of December 2007. Dr. Tweak was doing them prior, he now works for Phoenix Tuning. I appologize for your harnesses troubles and if I was around when yours was done I would have fixed it at no extra cost. All my harness are gone through completely and all plugs even if they are not broken but damaged are replaced with new OEM connectors from Toyota. All wiring is inspected and replaced with OEM Toyota wiring. I volt test and ohm test (where applicable) all wires to ensure you will have a trouble free install. Then I wrap the entire harness with new conveluted tubing and re-wrapped in e-tape from begining to end. So if your harness was not like this, I appologize, We here at 2jzswap.com take pride in our workmanship and have made changes here to improve on our products.

trdsupra900 Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 Can you do wiring for 2jz to Datsun z cars. I am planning to do the swap. I have no clue about wirring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2jzswapper Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yes ofcourse! send me an email to sean@tech2motorsports.com and tell me about your car and what you want to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overkill Z Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Explain...... thats the problem... I know them all at 2jzswap, andrew, crissy,... they are nice, but i have heard of too many sour dealings with 2jzswap and their customers. Personally they have not been professional with me and i have given them many chances to redeem their shops reputation in my eyes. the kits they make are equal to ebay quality and service. No care for the customers they serve... only in it for the quick buck. For any 2jz swap questions i would deal with John (a fellow hybridz'r) with http://www.betamotorsports.com. He has wonderfully made parts for swapping 2jz's into your cars. I have his crossmember installed in my car and am very pleased with dealing with his company. The product is extremely well made and can handle 1000hp easy. Nice welds..fits perfectly.. looks factory..strong....clean... and makes the motor sit low everything lines up and literally turns your z car into a MID engine car.

I'm sorry to hear about your dealings, obviously you haven't talked with me at the shop, I handle all their technical questions and do the wiring in house for them. Our kits are NOT comparable with EGAY, first everything is laser cut and flush welded, then we have each part powder coated for a long lasting part. All are kits are made with 10ga mild steel, you will not find this quality on Ebay. Everything is a direct bolt up and all parts are brand new nothing is reused, with the exception of the 240 cross members. We modify the mount locations with new 10ga mild steel for ideal fitment. What is your name and what business did you do with us? You give no examples and honestly I don't see any real information to backup your claims. Drew works for Lexus marketing and is only in the shop a couple of days a month. Carlos and I handle customer service calls. I find it odd you are the only one on here complaining. To me it seems you are promoting the company you have linked. If there is anything I can help you with to get your situation sorted out, please let me know. Andrew and Chrissy are not the only people working at Tech2 and obviously you don't know everyone one here. If our products were so bad, why are we published world wide about our cars and swaps in international magazines? And are our newest swap'd car is a feature vehicle for Enkei, at their booth for SEMA this year???? So please don't go and blast us with uninformative and fruitless claims that we are in to just get a buck, if you need a long list of detailed and informative posts of our dealings with people and what our customer serived is, I will be more than happy to fill your inbox.

I am not blasting your company just to blast tech2..that is a waste of time..im just informing my fellow Hybrid z members what I know so they can be well informed from someone who is not bias to promoting the company. AS far as promoting beta motorsports.... i do NOT work for them, i am just a customer that was pleased with their dealings. as far as Andrew and Chrissy give them my best, Andrew is a nice guy for sure and im sorry he isnt involved with tech2 more.

But again, you give no form of evidence, no situations and no grounds for your argument. If you are informing your fellow Hybrid Z members, then do so, I'm a Hybrid Z member, I have a 260Z in the process of a 1JZ swap. I am not trying to be biased, I just want you to do what you say you are tying to do, inform us Z members and give facts, evidence and/or statements that can actually say hey this is why I had a bad dealing. Not just hey they suck don't use them use someone else that doesn't specialize in JZs and hasn't been to SEMA ever.... nor are they published world wide. I'm not trying to start a flame war here. As a fellow Cali brother and car modifier I just want some kind of proof or story that can help me and our other members know where you are coming from. As I stated before if there is anything I can do to help rectify your situation or try to understand what you felt was done wrong to you, I will do my best to help fix the situation.

Best regards, 2jzswapper dude....in this ONE little discussion there was a customer with a crappy made wiring harness... it that evidance enough? do you honestly think hes the only one? I know so many people across the country..hes not the only one... I have held your kits in my hand and i was not impressed..friends have installed your kits and were not impressed. THATS ENOUGH for me to tell people how I feel...If you guys are making changes to improve your quality GREAT more power too you...you noticed it wasnt up to snuff and your making changes... cool thats it... i hope the best for Andrew, Carlos, and Chrissy.

Gritz Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Any chance we can get some kind of wiring diagram comparing the z harness with the jz harness???? Something that shows which wires go where??? If know one else does, then i will try to post something when i get there.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know so many people across the country..hes not the only one... I have held your kits in my hand and i was not impressed..friends have installed your kits and were not impressed. THATS ENOUGH for me to tell people how I feel... Yes I know this, as I stated before Dr. Tweak (now with Phoenix Tuning) did the harness's for Tech2. They say the problem and corrected it, they stopped having hem make or touch any harness's and this is where I came in. Yes we have made improvements on our products especially in the harness department, there is a night and day difference in the quality of the harness's compared to who we used to use. As for the kits you are referring too, a swap kit? or the harness's? The only change we have made with our kits is going from 1500* paint to powder coating them. We still use 10ga mild steel that is laser cut and MIG welded. The Driveshaft is 100% brand new and nothing nothing reused. I agree with you on how crappy the harness work was before, this was a major problem with our kits. I have come to this business with my professional expertise and now our harness's are 2nd to none, we still are cheaper than anyone else and all extra safety precautions and devices (fuel safety shutoff device $50, diodes, relays etc) are included with every harness for free. I only charge my cost for parts that have to be replaced and never a labor charge for replacing connectors/wiring. Again as I stated very early on in this post, I'm sorry for anyone who had a bad harness from us, We have corrected that mistake of using another person. I only pursued you to find out what we had done or are doing wrong, this is the company I work for and I strive make everything we do top notch and professional. If you guys every have any questions about JZs and how they are wired, please feel free to contact me: sean@tech2motorsports.com. I am more than willing anyone get their JZ swap completed.

For what it's worth, I feel you've done decent damage control and I'd be willing to give you guys a chance should my need arise. I feel you handled this somewhat poorly but I understand. Perhaps a private message to mike321go first would have been best and then announce the resolution in public in this thread. It's tough for anyone to regain lost respect; try not to get down on those who respond to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tough for anyone to regain lost respect; try not to get down on those who respond to that. Thank you Shaggyz, it is true respect is hard earned, and easily lost. I just wanted everyone to know what had cause him to loose faith in us, but I could have pursued another route. I do feel bad for those who had poorly made harness's, and the problem is they are still being made to this day, thankfully just not by us. I promise you fellow Hybrid Z members, things are better here at Tech2 and 2JZswap.com, I'm not forcing anyone to change their minds about us, I just want everyone to know, they all business do make mistakes, and only the good ones fix them and try to constantly improve their practices. My sound belief is to improve everything I touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2jzswapper Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Piston, you are just a short drive away. Have you ever thought about driving up and checking out our cars in person? I drive down to Sac regularly mostly for concerts. Thanks for the compliment I look forward to doing business with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piston Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 i would like to see your guys cars in person but im tight on everything right now. can barely free up some cash for gas. lol. when i get another z, ill be here more often even though i dont have one now, im on here anyways. so much useful information that will benifit in the future. i hope noone minds, but if i come across one, ill get it. and thats a old 1st gen celica ta22. i know, i know, buster... but those cars are as cool as z's. very hard to decide. i want the 2jz, and the celica will have to be cut up if going that way and i would hate to do that, and the z has all kinds of engine space with only mount fab. but thats another story so lets stick to the subject.
