so im in the middle of doing a 5-speed swap on my cressida and hit a wall. i dont know why, because i have never seen this before, but there is a metal cap pressed in where the pilot bearing should go. i have been beating on this thing for almost 3 hours and cant get it out! anybody else run...
ok, i found a threa on her finally of a guy who did it. but he modded his 5m pistons to bump compression. would the valve relief's in the 5m pistons be a problem?
all i want to know is if it will work. i know it will bolt on, but i want to know what compression im looking at, and if it will even rotate without smashing stuff? i know i can just run a super thick 2 or 3mm head gasket to make up a tiny bit of the room. but any sound factual knowledge would...
thats honestly the reason why i wanted to d the ffim! but my boss was all like.. your going to loose bottomened and.. and its gonna be hard to make bla bla blahh! its easier to make than most of the stuff we do at work. i think he just doesnt want to help me kill my daily lol
yeah, its just something im going to play around with at work untill the rest of my engine gets done. im getting a ct26, manifold, and some other little stuff from a friend in a few weeks. just collecting parts for now
hey enraged. what are you using for your throttle cable? im thinking of running my throttle body upside down to make it a little cleaner looking
IJ. thanks too! i figured that the turbo would make up for the loss if there was any. i just wanted to know if it would hurt more than help
i fabbed up one from cardboard today. and thanks for your input! i think for sure im going to make one at work. im doing a 7mge-t swap im my cressida. never seen anyone do this intake on a 7mge-t cressida swap, so as far as i know ill be the first! yay me

i have looked around to see what the benefits and negatives there are to using a front facing intake manifold. it looks to me like you would loose a little bottomend because of the short runners. but i was more looking for solid dyno proof of what it does to the power and torque numbers...
got my mk3 supra driveshaft
