    turn down the boost boys and girls: pics

    In Australia we get 91 as our lowest then 95, and we have 98 as our high octane. Some places will stock 94, but that has entanol blended with it to make it cheaper then the 91. I personally only run the 98 in my supra, everything else gets 91... I pay $1.25ish a litre for 98 and $1.15ish for 91.

    Questions about measuring main/rod bore diameter

    When I measured mine, I did 12-6, 2-8 and 4-10. The TSRM states that the maxium out of round allowed is 0.02mm or 0.0008in. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=83 Good luck!

    Yeah, I did a some searching on here and on the crummy Aussie supra forums and found that the a group buy was done in 06. Guess when I've got the motor back in, I'll put up a wanted to buy and see what that lands me, otherwise I'll send Wolfie an email and see what the deal is. Might have to...

    All 7M-GTE coolant hoses

    As far as I can work out, the only difference is with the heater hoses, as the control valve is on the other side of the bay and the core faces the opposite direction. This makes sense, as the motors are the same.... RHD: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/EPC/291220/catalog.aspx?F=8716&P=1...

    All 7M-GTE coolant hoses

    While I do a full rebuild to my motor, I think it's wise to replace all the coolant lines. I've gone through the EPC on Cygnus and managed to find what I think is all the hoses and part numbers. What I'm looking for is clarification that I actually have all the hoses, and that the part numbers I...

    --Golli's MA71 build

    Yeah, I'd be keen on selling the old indicators if your interested in them. No idea on what they would be worth tho. You can have the bulbs too, as I replaced them with LED's. I know the pro's and con's with the cranks, but the full balance of the 7M entices me more. It will just have to wait...

    It's been a while since I did an update, and a lot has happened since then. The head went off to the machinest about 2 days after the last update. Talking over costs, it was going to be $400 cheaper if I supplied a gasket set, so they did the machine work until the kit to landed. I got the kit...

    GTE cams

    A machine shop should be able to fix this for you, depending on how bad it is. But if you can get cams and caps for cheap, do that. just make sure everything is well in spec.
