Hey you all, I just Noticed something Yesterday and I thought that I would ask around and see if anyone has ran into this Same Problem. I bought a Set of NGK Iridiums about a year ago, Now after all the Problems that Ive had having to tear the engine back down due to Broken Ring lands (Like...

Not hard at all, Actually, I have 2 of them. This is my 84 Green 7MGTE Supra and I have a Red 85 7MGTE supra (Which will be up for sale soon). My Friends jtamulis is also a MK2 7MGTE owner and his car hauls ass. Robert

Well, If you remember, this is a 7MGTE in a MK2. so the Weight difference is a benefit. He has a AEM in his car so Im thinking he is just trying to sell a Product at $1900.00 installed. I just dont wait to.... 1. Run Lean Anymore 2. Rebuild this motor again when it only had 8,000 miles on...

Motec Engine Management.... Never heard of that one Before. I think Im going to look at it also and add it to the list. Ive read up on the MAFT Pro, There are a few People that suggest not using it. A friend of mine here in El Paso has a Speed Shop and he said that the MAFT Pro will not support...

Ok all, there are Quite a few Engine Management Setups out there. MAF-T MAF PRO VPC Greedy E-manage Ultimate Microtech Engine Management AEM Engine Management etc etc etc Im only asking because I dont want to spend a Shitload of money tuning and getting everything setup if there is...

I think Im going to set things up just to beat the other guy. Try things out safely first and go from there. We will see once I get everything back and start putting things back together. Robert

That is why Im going with a 2MM MHG. Lower compression than what I had before that is for sure. The Turbo setup that Im going with will give me everything the 57 Trim did and then some at a lower boost level. So I should be good on both sides.

I finished completely tearing the motor Apart. Took the block, Crank and Rods over to the most highly suggested person in town. Crank was no good. Cant be turned again... Rods were out of round, so I bought another crank, they are going to fix the rods, and I bought Weisco Forged Pistons. The...

Jdub, You hit it on the Money. My Builder and his Ultimate Wisdom Had the Head and Block Decked and then Decided to reuse the Toyota Stock thickness headgasket. I found this out about 2 months after that, I jusr recently bought a 2mm MHG to replace it since I was doing a Rod Knock Fix. Now Im...

Full Boost AFR were between 11.2 to 11.5 Detonation maybe is where you are going? I cant get anything any Better here in El Paso. 91 Octane is the Highest that they sell

Boost Level was around 18psi, Fuel Mods are MKIV Fuel Pump, MAF-T, AEM FPR, Wideband, SAFC, with a 57 Trim CT. I really didnt Expect this since I was doing a simple Rod Knock Fix. Decided to change the rings and Waaalaaaa..... Im hoping that this is just piston failure of just a bad set. I...

After 10,000 miles, 4 of 6 Pistons were like this. And why would this be Detonation caused (if so). Looking to go Forged. Any Help Anyone? Robert

Well, After going a Little Farther and Deciding to go ahead and replace the rings also. I have come to the Conclusion that Im totally Screwed. Lets say 4 of 6 pistons look just like this....... So in the search for rod bearings, Im also looking for Pistons now. Which would be better...

Well, If that is the case, I guess Im going to have to get another Crank. Im It already has .75 oversize Bearings in it and I was told that was the max that a Crank could be turned. Robert

The crank journal looks Exactly like all the other. Nice and Shinny. I cant see any Difference in any of them.

Anyone out there. Dont want this to Happen again. Robert

Ok All, Ive been fighting a Rod Knock for some time now so I went ahead and tore the motor Down. This is what I noticed on Number 5 Rod This Pic shows the Difference in size even though they have the same Specs. How does this Happen if they are Exactly the same Size?????? Is this due to...

Ok. What is Standard thickness, How do you measure Rod Bearings?

Ok all, Here is a good Question that Im sure some of you can Answer. I had to replace the Rod Bearings in the car since I was getting alot of Clatter. When I took the #1 Clyinder bearings out, I noticed that there isnt a Size engraved on them. All I see is the #2, #3 #4 on some of them. Most...

Yeah, My Friend Phil Dupler from there has done his Conversion Also. So he has a 7MGTE and a 6MGTE at this Point. Robert
