While putting car back together, I thought of using a sealed valve regulated technology battery to alleviate the cleanup i had to do to all the metal around the old one. If anyone else is using one, any recommendations as to brand, style etc... Thanks

I have spent hours reading through threads and the sticky on mhg selection. I stopped by machine shop, they had to take off .015 off block, minimal off of head, but it had been surfaced once before also, but he said it was still .020 over toyota minimum, tomorrow I will ask for total measurement...

I am sure this has been discussed, I have searched and heard differing opinions. I would appreciate some feedback from those who have done the typical external mods for longer term and have had success with stock internals. How many miles and how much boost. My engine is being done from top...

I am looking for a recommendation for a Full Gasket Set for the 7MGTE. Engine and Tranny are both going through a top to bottom rebuild, so the last thing I want is to have a leak as a result of cheap gaskets... Thanks for the input

Has anyone heard of or used these fuel control boxes on a 7mgte? (see link at bottom) The seller has a 100% rating with 1260 items sold, most being vacuum kits I am sure, but never-the-less he has excellent record, but not sure if anyone has tried with this motor.... Planning to use with...

I am sorry to wear out the discussion on TEMS... but I have seen several posts while searching under "TEMS" that is feasible to manually command settings from Normal/Sport/Firm by creating a short between different sets of input connections to the TEMS controller. So my question is, does...

As some reading this already know, I am doing a partial re-build on my 7mgte starting this weekend. Well I did a little work on this motor last spring just after buying it and just enough to get it on the road. It included but not limited to replacing the turbo with a used one off of a JDM motor...

I know there is much debate in regards to how much HP can you produce on a OEM HG, so I am going to plan to go to a MHG. I understand the reasons for needed to go to a MHG vs OEM running higher boost values and I understand why both head and block need to be resurfaced to utilize MHG. My...

I have an issue with my 88 7m-gte. The engine runs-on after shut down (key is turned off) It does not sound like dieseling... issue with build up on pistons... I have had cars with that issue and it sounds rougher than what this is doing and from my experience, sounds like it wants to or does...

Can anyone tell me what I should expect to get when trying to read compression with the engine cold, as compared to operation temp. So you ask why? Well I already have numerous items removed, including turbo and ex manifold. Yeah I know I should have checked plugs 1st, but anyway so I pull...

In the process of doing some routine maintenance on a supra that I bought recently, I noticed damaged to the impeller/compressor fins... Has anyone seen this happen outside of FOD, as that is what it looks like (see pic below) It seems to spin clean and smooth on the shaft, but I plan to...
