Dear Rx7 club - JDM Swap
Ok so lets run this down...
I recently purchased a S5 TII however the cars motor was all apart.
Long story short, the guy blew up an engine, and bought a JDM motor from japan2la (good compression numbers) and he just never finished bolting it up.He put the block in there but never got any further than that.
Thats where I came in, I bought the car with just a short block (cheaply I might add for a S5 TII) with plans to finish what he started. I have slowly been putting it back together. This is my 4th Rx7 and 2nd TII so I was confident I could do it by myself.
Well I have now reached a point where I am in need of some help.
I have got it to turn over, but won't start, I have a few concerns.....
I must say though, I do not have these systems
Well, thats about it, I realize this is a lot of questions and I have learned a lot by taking on this little project, but I still have a long way to go.

I must say though, I do not have these systems
- - Air control valve
- - charcoal canister
- - Air bypass valve
- - stock "S" bend intake *I'll get to this later*
- - Accelerated warm up system
- - Air supply valve
- - Air pump

2.shows what fuel lines to swap. so u could swap them in the back or swap them up front better to do up front cause then u actually use ur fuel filter.
3. theres a elbow thingy u can buy and bolt it up to the throttle body. they sell out fast no mater what site u use
4. its just a wire splice it in if u have to or buy another o2 sensor if theres no slack on the o2 sensor

^ The fuel lines on that diagram are wrong. J-spec fuel rails have the FPR on the primary and the PD on the secondary. This means that the feed line (with the fuel filter) must be connected to the secondary rail, and the return line must be connected to the primary rail. The FPR is always last. If you have the OEM metal hardlines, all you have to do is swap the hoses.
3) The OEM TID is basically the same as what's on an S4,; you just have the AFM difference. If you're attaching a cone filter to an S5 AFM, you'll probably need a 3" to 2.5" reducer and a couple hose clamps / T-bolt clamps. But I'd suggest tossing the whole thing and replacing it with a short 3" pipe and a box to keep it pulling ambient air (such as this: https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/diy-cold-air-box-830116/).
4) See if you can find the original wire on the harness, then add a plug/connector of your own. The sensors themselves are the same.
