I didn't really find the answer to the question I am looking for so I will just ask and see what people think or have used. I am wanting to buy another electric fan controller for my 91 as my adjustable unit has almost cost me my motor again, but the style and brand I am wanting only offers...

So I am hoping someone can help me shed some light on this issue of mine. I recently got my 91 back on the road after an extensive rebuild to the front half of the car including the motor. I put BC stage 2 cams, a 57 trim ct26, Evo 8 560cc injectors, and a Lexus AFM housing for performance...

I got my 91 MKIII back on the road around four months ago after a ten month rebuild and I didn't notice any problems then. But as I drove the car, I noticed that when the car would roll backward either from being on a hill or putting the trans in reverse, it would take a lot of effort to get the...

I was trying to start my freshly rebuilt motor today and it sprung an oil leak. It is coming from the timing cover where it seals to the engine. What is the best way to replace that gasket? I am more concerned with causing problems with the head gasket if anyone can give me some advice on...

I am nearing the end of my rebuild and I was getting ready to install the stock accordion hose onto my lexus afm housing and discovered the hose will not fit over the housing. For those that have switched to the lexus afm housing, how did you fit it to the accordion hose?

Any chance someone would be kind enough to post some good pictures of the vacuum lines running around the intake manifold on a 91 7M-GTE? I have found numerous pictures of the lines on the bottom side but nothing really on the top side and then showing where the lines snake around the manifold...

I have a 91 MK3 with the 7M-GTE motor. I have upgraded the turbo to the driftmotion 57 trim and I have stage 2 BC cams but those are the two most extreme upgrades I have done to this motor power wise. I am wondering if for TEMPORARY USE ONLY if I can run a Lexus AFM and something like 660cc...

I am in the middle of rebuilding my 91 7M motor and I am wanting to replace the oil pump drive shaft bearings and I am wondering if anyone has done this before and what kind of a tool did you use to remove/install the bearings?

Does anyone know where to find front subframe bushings? If it makes a difference I have a 91. I have looked all over the place and I cant seem to find a single vendor for front bushings.

Has anyone sent in their oil pump retention plate to Beech Performance to have it ball milled? Is this $60 modification really necessary on a higher horsepower motor or not really? Any thoughts?

This question is for those that have upgraded their fuel pump. When you did so, did you just put in a new pump and add in an AFPR, or did you have to make other modifications to the system such as wiring? I am also wondering if it is possible to eliminate the fuel pump resistor in the system or...

So I am rebuilding my motor from the ground up and I am at the point of needing to torque the oil squirter banjo bolts. I have looked on here briefly, in my Haynes manual, and on the TSRM online. I can not find the torque spec. Does anyone know what it is supposed to be?

Let me start by saying I know I do not have this in the right section as there is a section dedicated to standalone setups, but I am not getting any responses with my thread posted in that area. Anyways... on to my questions. I am looking at the Megasquirt 3 standalone computer as well as the...

Ok. So when it comes to engine management I am completely dumbfounded. I have seen that driftmotion sells an AEM plug and play kit and then I have heard about MS2. What is a better option or what have you guys used and which do you prefer? Does anyone know of a good tech article on either...

I am trying to get some opinions on what pistons I should put in my motor. I have been looking at the JE Pistons, but they do not offer them in a standard bore size only .20 and .40 over. I am trying to keep machining costs down by not having the cylinders bored out if I do not have to. Any...

For those of you that have pulled your 7M motor and put it on an engine stand, have you noticed what size the factory bolt is that bolts the bellhousing to the motor? On mine it is the size stated in the title. Are yours the same? Also did you end up drilling and retapping the holes to a...

So rather than making two different posts, I am thinking it would be easier to ask both of my questions in this one thread considering they are both general mkIII questions. I am in middle TN and I am wondering if any one has an engine machine shop in this area that they really like. Being from...

Let me just start by saying whatever idiot engineer decided the 7M motor need that damn plate was an f#%$ing moron. That thing is in the worst spot possible. Now that that's out, has anyone had to replace the gasket on this thing with the motor still in the car? I can barely see it on my motor...

Here is whats going on. On my 91 GTE motor, I have been playing with my electric fan relay for the past couple of days trying to get my fans to work again. I started up the engine to warm it up to make sure the fans come on, after thinking I fixed the problem. I then noticed there is a lot of...

My a/c works and the blower motor blows air out fine if I have it on high or medium. If I put the setting on low, the motor stops. Then if I turn the temperature up to try to get heat, the motor still blows air, but all the vents seem to be closed and if I try to select where the air blows out...
