Cool, I'll go join up! I've been hanging here only , because it's so active :)
Thermostat housing, that's what I thought.
So I'll need to find some old sensors to put on it from an older 7mgte? or are they the same as my old N/A sensors?
So, I have a 87-88 gte harness , yellow clips, HAC sensor
this will plug in to my post 89 7mgte and that should be all i need for electrical?
1986.5 mkiii manual trans + i have the ECU for the harness
My motor mounts arrived today, and the holes on the turbo side of the engine block dont line up
I can't figure out what the actual bracket I need is! can anyone shed some light?
Do I need new mounting pad (?) also? the thing the bracket sits on inside the engine bay?
i'm at the point where the block is assembled but i need to start putting on all the parts, hoses, wires
but the engine is basically bare,
still need 2 attach transmission and prepare my engine bay, someone said i need some new sensors which i have no idea about.
just taking it one step at...
i'm in a similar boat as you, bud!
i just got my 7mgte, trying to get it ready for swap is alot of research and preparation
we can figure it out together lol, take some pics!
I hope I didnt damage the pipe/flange in my initial attempts to remove the nut.
Its a really minor dent/scratch, think it should be ok? A new pipe is like 370 bucks...
my email wasn't working yesterday, couldn't upload my pics
here's how i got the studs out without doing any damage to the engine
first, i went out and bought a footlong. not the sandwich... a footlong 1/8inch drill bit ! -i couldnt get clearance for my drill, because of the oil return pipe/oil...
ill pick this up tomorrow.. ill try to contact some kind toyota parts dealership..
thank you for the brainstorm thusfar
EDIT: got them ordered at a local dealership today
can you possibly point me in the direction of the 8x 1.25 nuts that are used on this engine? I will need to purchase some as soon as possible.
Thanks
I will also likely need new studs to replace the stripped ones.. anyone know where I can find those?
