    "safe" numbers for 7M-GTE internals

    My 7m was pushing 402rwhp for about 3 months. I thought I was safe, as I took almost every precaution in my build to avoid issues. The build was meant to hold 400rwhp reliably for the supra b/c it's my daily driver in the summers. The motor had 30k miles on it...and sure enough I had a little...

    7m a340e (auto tranny) compatible with a 1jz swap?

    Would it be possible to use a a340e off of a 7m for a 1jz swap? If so, what would it need? ECU & Harness? Any other mods? How about using the 7m auto with a 2jz swap? I'm considering parting out my build, and starting over with a 1jz/2jz swap. I have a built a340e auto with 2k miles on it, and...

    7m a340e (auto tranny) compatible with a 2jz swap?

    Hello. My 7m build fell on its face...and I'm looking to go a different route...1j or 2jz. Leaning to 2jz. Since I have an artificial left leg, a r154 wont work for me. I have a built a340e rated for 700whp from my 7m. Ideally, I would continue to use this transmission since I have a ton of...

    walked an early 2000's Vette

    Heading up the highway today, going 70 in a 65...up in my rear view comes a silver colored vette c5. Once he gets close, he pulls in behind me, and follows for about 10 minutes...I think nothing of it and just keep driving. Just after we get out out of heavy traffic and the roads open up with...

    Got handed by a Hemi Dodge Charger.

    Yup...a few mods, you'll be pulling on SRT8's no problem. I havn't raced one that's givin me a problem. Before the JT62, I had a 50 trim ct26 and I had no problem keeping up then either.

    Track car

    Hey everyone. I'm strongly considering picking up a chassis for an xcross track car. I might even get into circuit racing locally. I'm looking for best overall performance + light chassis. Is a 90+ hardtop, r154, 1jz, twin turbo a good/the best setup? Let the input begin! Thanks in...

    Passed a State Policeman :)

    I know a couple of cool cops as well...I've come to realize that they are people like the rest of us. Which means some are car guys...and others get on a power trip (I've delt with a couple of these before). To me, it's a gamble with police...which is why 99% of the time, I'm a pretty...

    Passed a State Policeman :)

    Riding to work the other day in the Soup...come up behind a State Policeman following a really slow CRV. I follow him for about 2 miles going 40 in a 55...and finally I'm like...this is BS :: angry :: So I say screw it....there is a 3/4 mile passing zone coming up...I pop out of o/d...spool...

    Destroying an S4

    On my way home, it's a 45 minute ride, 55mph the whole way, and about 15 passing zones. I'm cruising along at 65 or so, and out from an abutting road comes an S4 turning onto the main road (the one I'm driving on) with his 3" exhaust rawring. He comes out close enough to me that I have to apply...

    New power!!!! 404HP 405ft lbs @ the wheels CT26 on 17.5lbs

    Don't sell it. I just spent a ton of money on mine, and it's starting to burn oil. I considering selling it and buying something else instead of doing the motor work...but I know I won't be happy unless MY supra is in MY garage. Although I have the luxury of having a reliable daily on the...

    an eg hatch.. i know its been a while since a race so i figured

    Sounds like fun...I never race civics cause they are usually one of two types: Type 1: a POS with a fart can that isn't worth the fuel to pull on or Type 2: a turboed JDM whatever that's pushing like 5/600whp that will stomp on you all day long so either way....I never race a civic, but...

    Greddy BCC 7M compatibility with a MK4 BCC

    I've had mixed feedback from retailers and people on whether or not the greddy bcc for a mk4 supra is interchangeable with a 7m supra. Does anyone know any details on this? I'm having a rough time locating a bcc for a 7m and as most of you know they are discontinued everywhere... Thanks in...
