    REIGN's REBUILD! Its a beautiful thing... (THAT IS FOR SALE) =(

    I know where Jake was at mentally before getting the motor in there. I truely appreciate what it takes to get a build finished with minimal funding. Im proud of ya Jake. Ya persevered and I bet its worth it at this point. Now take your time getting everything hooked up and plumbed right and...

    i hate my car

    yup ^^ what he said. I have a 3foot piece of galvanized plumbing pipe I call "The Equalizer". That and a 1/2" drive breaker bar will get it loose. Of course you are putting stresses on other things in the drive train.

    PTE 550's, the new Venoms?

    Its those kind of generalizations that lead to misinformation. So I suppose you think everything Summit Import Performance sells is shit? Rich might be interested to know that. I guess the ARP head studs I bought from him are shit too? :nono: go ahead...believe the hype

    Tackle an alignment??

    He wasnt asking how to DO an alignment, I think he was looking for some advice on how difficult it will be to make the adjustments with everything all rusty and nasty looking. before you tackle breaking that stuff loose, get a can of "Blaster" from wherever. Spray everything the night...

    torque plate 7m

    Well..its a little more than that. Its purpose is to simulate the stress applied to the block when the head is bolted down. This ensures that the cylinders are round when the head is in place.

    Da89Soup's ???????? thread!!!!!

    Ryan, I can really sympathize with you. My wife and I do not live together currently and she has in her possession "the packet" which she has all filled out. Its only awaiting her sending it to me and me signing it. I really hope that day never comes. For 11 years she was my best friend, my...

    Lucy - Im home!

    naa, Ive stuck with it long enough. Its just a fuggin car...a not particularly reliable one at that. I am getting a certain perverse joy thinking about tearing it to pieces.

    Lucy - Im home!

    Cause its a piece of shit and I hate it? LOL Im pretty much soured on the 7M and Im getting soured on the Supra a bit as well. It really hard to stay positive after all the trouble Ive had with this car. It seems like one thing after another. To be honest I will be really suprised if I keep the...

    Lucy - Im home!

    Well guys I have decided to give up on this drivetrain. Im going to do a part out thread in the next day or two. Im going to start with the 7M stuff only and see if I can get enough out of it to consider a 1JZ swap. Once I get an inventory of what I want to sell and take the pictures I will post...

    Lucy - Im home!

    The curse continues. Motor runs fine now, (running hot atm but I think I can sort that out)...on the way back from Toyota dealership, trans starts making some SCARY noises. My guess is the trans is toast, but I kinda knew it was trouble for a while. Im just too drained to say any more about...

    recommended machine shops (houston, TX)

    I was happy with Scroggins and their work. I think they did excellent work, but I think they may be a tad expensive. There is another place over here near me that Dan told me about, I'll see if I can find out the name of it.

    Kylefoto is jumping on the bandwagon, build thread!

    Here's to hoping your build goes as well as mine...but that your end result is far better. Keep in mind that I may in fact be doing a part out, or maybe just a partial part out (aftermarket for stock parts trade out). If that comes to pass I'll give ya fist shot at the good stuff.
