Car over heated on the freeway today... Coolant everywhere... Had it towed home on a flatbed... Looks like it's time for the rebuild or swap. :cry:
Supra broke down...

- Start date
what was it?
was it simple like a hose, or something worse..?
if there's not too much damage, slight warping; you might get away with shaving the head a little, then using a MHG..

You'll want to rebuild most swaps before using, so you may as well rebuild your own.............if it comes to that. I agree with Razoe, are you sure it wasn't just a hose?
Nope not just a hose, no leaking anywhere except the overflow, it sorta exploded out the top after it popped the cap. As for a swap, I was thinking more along the lines of a 1J or some form of GTE, 7M whatever. Or rebuild the N/A.
I was planning on rebuilding or swapping to turbo when it hit 200k, it's at 198 now so looks like it's happening 2k earlier than I planned.

Haven't fully checked it out yet btw, just got it home. Either way seems like a good time to do what I mentioned.
