The only thing that would dump oil on a GTE over a GE is the turbo feed. I don't see how anyone would think that a giant, gaping, threaded, oily hole would okay to run without anything blocking it off. Sell the Supra to somebody that knows what they're doing and buy a Civic.

In my experience, the clutch will go before the transmission. When I first got my car, I could bark second in a straight line. Before I took it off the road, the clutch would slip long before the tires. These are pretty stout cars. I wouldn't really be worried about breaking things unless you...

This never clicked for me before. I get why it would run lean.. but if it runs lean at slight loads and cruise.. then wouldn't you get better gas mileage without an egr, as opposed to with one? Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

Well I've done that, im just wondering if new bearings would get the specs back to the middle (because of the wear of the crank shaft), or if I would need to get a different size of bearings.

Could I buy a standard set of bearings and then one toyota select fit for the size 4 main bearing? I might have to double check the prices at champion toyota.. According to the TSRM EPC its only 15 or so dollars for main bearings. Each of corse. EDIT: I've pretty much decided to just bite the...

So. I've come to a crossroads in my build. I called up Toyota, and had them give me a quote on all main bearings, all rod bearings, and the thrust washers. $440 dollars. SO. Heres my predicament. I haven't checked the rod bearing sizes, but I know all the main bearings are number 3 bearings...

I will tomorrow. By the time I got home and unloaded everything and found the problem, his shop was already closed.

WHY can't people do things correctly?? So heres the story! I go to pick up the engine from the machine shop. Everything looks great. A little bit of discoloration on the deck, but according to the machine shop guy, its just fine for a MHG. Everything is superb. I pay him 280 dollars for all the...

Are there any numbers on the actual bearing that reference what size it is?

Grrr.. Cleaning/sandblasting and priming and painting all the little things is such a PITA! I hope it all turns out well..

Wax the paint. Mine was worse than that, and still came out pretty shiny. But I also claybarred it and waxed it.

Just sent the block and head to be decked for a metal head gasket, honed, and drilled and tapped for a second knock sensor. The machine shop was working on a 2000 horsepower blown 560 cube Ford.. I think my 7ms in good hands. Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk

Most of the F&F crazed people who buy supras because they were in the film, and then want "2JZ no shit" will find a way. And you CAN run a 2JZ on 7M electronics..

Sorry for the lack of updates, my phone died on me, and I had to get a warranty return from Verizon. Anyway, I completely tore down the block and am going to be sending it out, along with the head, to be decked for a MHG. Do it once, and do it right, right? Once the block and head get back from...

If you want a 100% professional job, nothing beats a wiring shop.. If you want a half assed, fire hazard of a job.. Then go ahead, get your soldering iron and crimpers out. Otherwise run 7m electronics and be fine.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but so far, I completely disassembled the head, cleaned all of the valves, hand lapped all of them, and sent the head to be decked. Also found out that the head was a virgin head (116mm, never been decked before) so I'm happy about that. I dropped the pan on the...

I don't know of any suspension arms in a supra that are curvy like the first pic... Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk

Was about to say the same thing.
