    mk4 ?

    They are completely different engines. The MKIII uses a 7M block. The MKIV is a 2JZ block. Different bore and stroke. They have little in common and the heads are not interchangeable. You might want to go read the suprawiki before posting here. You don't have the basics down yet.

    I'll tell you, it's out there, you just have to find it. It took me a very long time to find Theresa. Be selective.

    All possible causes for engine to lean out

    MAF, TPS, VAC Leak, Defective FPR, Short in wiring harness. You're using 7M electronics, how do you have your TPS & ISC wired?

    NWS: Holy Shit must see! Supra owner robs bank and then cuts his own throat!

    We'll start on that right after you master the basic English language.

    New to Supramania.

    A 7M in one of those is a handful, I'll bet the 2JZ will be as well. You're going to find your biggest challenge is traction. Nice looking ride, welcome.

    Are there advantages to running a destroked 7M?

    Correct. I did a pretty extensive writeup on this very topic quite some time ago.

    Who needs a craigslist laugh?

    His ad has been taken down. Keep watching Craigslist - when he reposts, if it's not accurate, let's flag him again. We can help save someone from getting ripped off.

    Who needs a craigslist laugh?

    Yea, he's a real fucking asshole. Refuses to accept that the car is an NA. I got similar replies back, and now he's removed the engine photos.

    a+ to the newsbot

    It's something I'm working on.... It's wasn't supposed to be public yet. I guess I'll open it up to the public while I'm tinkering with it - forum "unhidden".

    Who needs a craigslist laugh?

    Everyone should click the "flag as prohibited" link: http://worcester.craigslist.org/flag/?flagCode=28&postingID=994247319 He's engaging in fraud since he's been told its not a turbo, yet refuses to change the ad.

    Rod knock?

    I have said it before, I will say it again: You absolutely can not diagnose engine noises over the Internet. There are a half a dozen things that can make similar noises. I'm not saying it's not rod knock, it likely is. Everything you wanted to know about rod knock & engine noises...

    mk4 burn out

    Theresa & I will not leave our cars anywhere to be worked on. I do all the mechanical work, but for things like having tires changed, I stand there and watch them do it. I also pull the car on and off the lift. If a shop won't let me do this, I don't do business there. Our tire shop is pretty...

    Got my car appraised today..

    I use Rally Insurance for the MKIV's. I'm not sure if they would do a MKIII, but it might be worth checking out if it's not a daily driver. http://www.rallyinsurance.com (Website sucks, but the insurance is good) They are easy to work with and are easy to do agreed value coverage. There are...

    whats the difference between drag radials and slicks?

    If you think they look skinny on the MKIII, take a look at a MKIV. The MKIII ones are MONSTERS compared to the MKIV ones. Before we had our custom billet axles made, we considered modding MKIII ones as an upgrade. Yes, we always ran it. It was a purpose built drag car from day one. The glide...

    whats the difference between drag radials and slicks?

    It was 1,339 RWHP when they featured it in Sport Compact Car. It's the highest horsepower car they've ever had to plot a dyno for. http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/editors/slipangle/0508_sccp_horsepower_performance_dyno_chart/index.html This pic is worth 1,000 words...
