I JUST got the shipment, don't flame me for not having it on a stand yet ;)
Engine + Parts, not fully assembled
This is what I have to work with
Can you tell what kind of gasket this is just by looking at it?
I will have to partially build this engine myself,
my questions to...
Yea I have the tan interior, but I won't bother fixing/replacing it until later this year.
But, if you know someone who's got pieces (center glovebox cover.. passenger side glovebox) in tan, I would be interested.
Also kinda interested in a complete colour overhaul as well, maybe some darker...
Solid.
All those little hoses and stuff connecting to the intake/exhaust/everyotherdamnthing on my 7MGE..
Should I be thinking about reusing them? Do these hoses last a lifetime or is there someplace I can easily buy some new ones?
Sweet, 1000-1250lb engine stand is all good? I was looking at a couple today, IDK what's the dang difference between them all, but I'm assuming they all serve the same purpose of holding+flipping the block
It's good to hear some people are running the same basic machine I plan to build, 7MGTE +...
The TSRM is extremely useful for individual components, but I can't fathom using it to put the engine together step by step
Am I missing an assembly chapter or should I just familiarize myself with every page of that manual? :)
Have you guys built a 7M engine on your own before?
He says its manual, and he's got the ECU to go with it.
Beauty, I'll probably go pick that up then!
Thats gonna save me so much time, I was prepared to make one from scratch lol
Should I attach all the wire connections to the engine before I drop it in?
And to build the 7MGTE, I'd probably...
You guys are the f****** bomb !
So helpful. I'm not nearly finished yet, I'll be at 100 posts before I get this sucker running I'm sure ^^
Now, this is what the guy has for sale. Is this all I need for wiring for GTE swap in my NA supra? or is this only half the harness.
The guy says it...
Thank you for the reply Grandavi :)
Before I even got my license, I knew I wanted an 80s supra. I was blessed to find this one for 1700.
My long term plans are seasonal driving, very light recreational summer driving.
I am not going to tune for horsepower specifically, I am mostly interested in...
Cool. Do you know how much clearance I'll need in front of the car for a cherrypicker hoist? Can I remove the engine with a sideways rotation of the crane?
I have a question about the wiring harness...
There are an assortment of 4 wire, 2 wire, 6 wire clips etc. that connect to various things around the engine..
Can I replace these clips with a soldered connection of my own making, or should I try to find the right sized clip for each thing?
