    7mgte block with no oil squirts??

    notice I said early JDM block. Im not sure as to why but only the Early 87 maybe 88 JDM blocks didnt have them I dont know why the USDM did have them. And yes Aaron there are alot of owners on here that block the squirters, to get better oil pressure. Or just use an NA block

    Damaged Cams on 7m-gte?

    reading horror stories like this is why im glad im rebuilding myself. I feel for you guys that dont have the resources to do this as well. I dont like other people touching my car if I can possibly do the work myself. Every time I take my car to get something done, something ends up broken or...

    7mgte block with no oil squirts??

    early JDM gte blocks did not have them. How do I know this? Cause Im rebuilding one right now.:biglaugh: Another sign is that is has 2 knock sensors instead of 1. Providing someone didnt drill and tap to add one.

    Ways to cure 7M oiling issues

    There are alot of people that block them off to increase oil pressure. Even IJ was comtemplating doing this, but didnt have the oil passages in his Pauter rods, so decided to keep them.

    my 89 7mgte build up thread!

    I put the water pump on this weekend and the oil pump last. I found that my gasket kit didnt come with some of the round copper gaksets. One is the lock gasket on the oil pump which I will have to order. I will post pics and part numbers when I get them. Also the gasket that goes around the...

    my 89 7mgte build up thread!

    I spent alot of time on these plugs. It didnt seem like they would thread in as far as they should. Since I have had to chase alot of the threads already, due to the overspray of the sealer on the block they I assumed the same for these. I definitely want to post this info as I spend alot of...

    water pump question

    thanks for the info. But thats $117 just for the filter casing and then the filter. I also didnt see where this was designed to filter coolant. It just sais water based fluids. Wouldnt it have been just as easy and cheap to get a spin on type like the WIX sight has. Im sure its a positive...
