I have a '90 supra turbo. My cousin parked the car for about 18 yes before he sold it to me this year. It was a dream come true. I remember around '96 my freshman year I told him if you ever sell this car let me know. Well 2014 came around and I got that phone call. MAN....it felt like destiny or fate... Finally pulled the engine and tranny (R154). Now for the teardown then machine shop for the old 7m. Found a good deal on Greddy e-manage ultimate. Its a piggyback but pervious owner was running around 600hp with this for management. I'll keep you updated with more pics as I make progress. Any recommended machine in the Orlando area? Heard In induction performance by Tampa was good with 7m's. Wondering if there's more out there...

Any machine shop you find, make sure you get the block decked with the timing cover mounted. If you bore the block, please torque the idler pulley for the timing belt first along with a torque plate.

Also, ask the machine shop you run a chasing tap for the head bolt threads in the block, it'll help you get a more accurate measurement. Check the exhaust manifold threads in the head, with these being aluminum head and as old as they are, the threads easily pull out.
