So, long story short, car died, pulled head and a bunch of stuff out of the engine bay, have new engine on stand and I'm trying to get the damn thing out of there at 11PM at night. How would I even begin to pull this out when the head is already off of it (therefore can't hook up to the...

thanks man, appreciate that, makes me worry a bit less.

Did a search and saw that everybody was using M10x1.25x100, I took the slack off the hoist and it is holding fine, but scared to go forward.

Back in September of 06' I purchased my Supra from my buddy for $1300, got it all running with only minor complications. Then in June on the way back from Mexico my car has a massive drop in oil pressure and dies 5 miles away from home. Flip to current, got a new engine from SupraMike7M and...

I'm in the process of creating to molds in the holder, as a docking station for my treo phone and my ipod, having the car charger connected to the back of the cig lighter so it should look nice. Not sure if anyone has actually done this.

If you can't afford a tow call a friend with a truck and hitch it home as a last resort (even though I despise doing that personally). As far as a "cheap" civic goes, I would weigh out what you are going to spend on that and figure out if you can at least do a decent rebuild with that cash...

I'm out in Chandler, AZ so yeah you and I both know exactly about the heat here, I was almost (not really) happy that I threw a rod in the 1st day of June just because it would have sucked driving the Supra around with no AC. "Winter" is almost here for us man.

I merely going off of the TSRM for you, the only common item between both of those codes are pointing to the ECU. Code 31 points towards a diagnostic of the AFM and then to the ECU, did you "clean" the AFM before you put it in, I have heard of that causing some issues. Code 43 points towards...

ahhh a random party we had at my house, that was after a bottle of vodka and a bottle of jeager my girlfriend and I last party we had at my house me with my Supra newest tattoo

ok man you really might wanna take a look at this thread http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20163 I am by now means an old school guy and still classify myself as a n00b, but someone like cyroslash should be respected and so should the rules of the forum, like Snotcycle said...

dude, don't get all snippy they are merely trying to help, if they don't know your current setup and what you anticipate on doing then how can anyone make an educated reply as to what is better.

ohh i will be, i actually have a camera setup in my garage that is connected to my computer and will snag a picture at any interval I want, so it will be a huge thread on what will be accomplished.

you are are a god among men, thanks Trev

Duane's understatement of the century...lol. Yeah I am glad that I am staying 7M, just not the most aesthetically pleasing engine but that can be fixed with a Ron FFIM and the new C.O.P. sparkplug setup:)

I'm almost wondering if Cyroslash was just being sarcastic with the note on "and on that note I stayed 7M", none the matter though, thank you to everyone that has been helping me, looks like I will be getting a block, rods, and pistons from jdub on the 17th, lots of learning ahead of me on doing...

thanks for the support everyone, off to the classified boards to find anyone with a 7M for sale :(

So should I just look for a 7M-GTE with a blown head gasket and do the head gasket replacement and go that route?

So, on the way back with my girlfriend from a trip to Mexico, 5 miles away from home and my Supra or as I am calling it now until it is fixed "the red thing" makes a "weird" sound like metal to metal. I immediately pull over to the side of the road and I have next to no oil pressure (which I...

I only use the back for backpacks and people that piss me off that I can;t leave on the side of the road ;)

you own a Supra not a civic please don't degrade any Supra's by getting this....then again everyone has their own opinion.
