Yes I appreciate that . . that's why I'm keeping my Mk3 W58 and just using the Bellhousing from the Mk4 . . but presume it will fit otherwise? And do I need to use the clutch from the 7M-GE or the 2JZ-GE?

Just read all through this thread and found it all VERY confusing !! (despite my having a degree in Electronics) I'm planning to put a 2JZ-GE from a Mk4 Supra (with its ECU) to replace my 7M-GE in my 1991 Mk3 Supra. Can someone answer a few basic questions for me? (Bear in mind I haven't...

I do appreciate that Kai . . the reason I'm hoping to do it it is NOT for increased power, but for a more modern engine that is more efficient and is MUCH more reliable! (as I've said before, my Supra is my daily driver, and I very rarely find I have the opportunity to use all the power I have...

I'm still finding it hard to get definitive answers to the questions I still have about this potential engine swap! I'm sure there are people who have done this, so if YOU know, please tell me!! Just to re-cap, I'm hoping to fit a 2JZ-GE from a Mk4 Supra to replace the 7M-GE in my Mk3 Supra...

As you seem to know what you're talking about destrux, hope you don't mind me asking . . . I'm fitting a 2JZ-GE from a Mk4 Supra to replace the 7M-GE in my Mk3 Supra Am I right in thinking that as long as I fit the bellhousing from the Mk4's W58 to my gearbox it will all mate up...

I appreciate your method would be more professional Kai . . . but to be honest I'm just after simple & quick ! (and I think soldering the joined wires will be just as reliable) If I was ever likely to put a 7M back in, it would be different . . but why would I?! Especially with a ready...

Albert how did you interface the 7M wiring with the 2JZ? I'm planning on fitting a 2JZ-GE from a Mk4 Supra with its ECU to replace my 7M-GE I'm obviously using the 2J engine harness, so I'm guessing there should only be about 12 wires or so to interface the dash etc? I'm also thinking cut and...

I would have thought cut and splice is a far easier and quicker way of sorting the electrics - surely it should only be a max of about 12 wires anyway? I am into electronics and would solder them together and insulate with heatshrink (after all, once its done that's it . . and its all out of...

Actually hate IS too strong a word !! But I get SO sick of people telling me I MUST surely want a turbocharger that I probably said that to try and shut them up! However, I would honestly never want to own a turbocharged car (and as I say, I have driven DOZENS!). I just don't like the way the...

Thanks Supra Kid ! Exactly, I don't know why some people are obsessed with having more and more power that they would hardly ever use in normal driving (and waste more fuel - do you know how expensive it is here in the UK?!!) 220 hp from a stock 2JZ-GE is plenty for me . . . I have trouble...

I've driven dozens of cars over the years with Turbochargers . . . including Porches and Ferraris (and Mk3 and Mk4 Supras of course), and have never liked them. If I want more power, then I'd rather have a bigger N/A engine. But I get stopped by the Police all the time for driving too fast as...

Hi Supra Kid . . . well it would be GREAT if you do your swap before I do . . maybe you will be able to supply some of the info required! When it comes to the electrics, it ought to be possible to just have a table with colour codes of wires from the 7M dash harness alongside wires from the 2J...

I did think about just using the 7M ECU on the 2JZ . . . BUT . . there seems little point, especially when I'll get the engine complete with loom and Mk4 ECU. The engine will then work as it's designed, including a better air intake metering system The only thing that needs interfacing...

I have a mint Mk3 Supra with a 7M-GE engine . . . first engine had big ends fail after 115,000 miles, and my second engine has now done over a hundred thousand miles, so I figure it may be on its way out soon. And the best option seems to fit a Mk4 N/A engine, as they seem much stronger and...
