It's certainly possible. Bad injectors will make it run like crap. Have you given it the old screw driver test yet? Put a screwdriver to the injector and your ear to the screwdriver and listen to each injector to see If : A. it's clicking at all B. one or more injectors sounds different then...

Not to get off the subject but I was wondering where you got the motor? Is it JDM? What kinda shape it's in? How much money? I'm shopping for another motor and I'm wondering what the market on the 7mgte is right now.

I said it earlier and I'll say it again. You need to clean and tighten everything. In fact now that I've read your posts lets include your intake and exhaust manifolds too. Exhaust and Intake leaks will kill and I mean kill your engines performance. Also, if it's cold out and you have a big...

Miggles is right power falls like a rock after 5500 rpm's even with improved intake and exhaust. 7M's just aren't high revers. The good news is they develop their hp steadily throughout low to medium high revs making them a very tractible street motor. If you want revs you need a 1jz.

Maybe a little drag but no A/C in summer is a huge drag...I'm keeping my A/C!

At AutoZone it's all made in China. Oh...and by the way the absolute worst thing you can buy from them is brake pads and especially rotors...total garbage! Their clutches are also shit.

Hammer Toyota in Mission Hills Ca had one sitting on the shelf.

Replace the valve seals along with all the gaskets on the top end (from the block up). Get the head pressure tested for cracks and do yourself a favor and get a valve job from a competent machinest while you've got her apart. It's only gonna cost two or three hundred bucks depending on what your...

Sounds like you've got it under controll. I was wondering when you jack up the front wheels to burp her...how far off the ground do you need to get the front wheels? I never feel like I get mine high enough off the ground. (Crappy jack)

No A/C? What are you gonna do in summer wear a cool suit? Drive naked? (I think that may be illegal.) Seriously, doesn't this kill the value of the car, not to mention the comfort factor. I know your gonna say less horsepower drain on the motor but comon, is it really worth it? Just curious on...

And Your Probably Gonna Want To Keep Oil In The New Engine....I Read Somewhere That It'll Run Better...with oil that is...

The radiator looks fine? What does that mean? It's shiny black? Sorry to seem incredulous but I think it might be time to take the radiator out and have it looked at or at least back flush it. It doesn't matter what the radiator looks like on the outside it's what's going on inside where you...

Obvious things first. Don't take shortcuts. Bolt down the coil pack and make sure it has a good ground. More then likely that's your problem. In fact check all your grounds and connections...then recheck. Stuff like coil packs floating around, dirty connectors and loose grounds are going to give...

I kinda like it. Do what you want, if you like it buy it. I have a wing that looks a little like a corvette wing on my supra. I don't even know what it is or who makes it. I found it on a supra that just hit the junkyard (smashed to shit in the front) and I liked it. But that's me, I'm not...

Even simpler...do as I did and wire one fan to the hot side of the ignition so it runs when ever the ignition is in the on position and run your other fan to an inside switch that you can turn on and off when necessary. Above all fuse everything. Yes I read what you wrote about not wanting to...

IHI-RHC7 makes a good point...weight is the big problem here, although a good machinest can always trim the heavier piston or pistons to match the weight. Your absoloute best bet would be to get the whole lower end balanced. It runs alot smoother, lasts longer, can rev higher and isn't as likely...

Where is the love????

WOW! I didn't realize hardtops are so rare. Now that I think of it you don't see many. For the people that suggested I get a sunroof, read the thread I already have one. But as I said I'm gonna replace it...anybody have any suggestions on what brand is a good one. I currently have an ASC glass...

Has anyone ever converted a hard-top mkiii to sportroof? I see alot of junked mkiii's with sport roofs that I could buy for next to nothing. Since the sunroof in my 87 could use replacing I have been wondering how big a hassle it would be to go ahead and buy a sport roof (and all related...

Hey Figgie lighten up...you having a bad day or what? No sense beating the shit out someone with a question, Go kick the dog or something.
