    who owns this car!?!?!

    Very nice exhaust, very similar to the setup on Stanzaspeed's car, that my brother made a couple years ago.

    Auto and 5spd starter difference?

    Really any Supra starter should work for you. Best bet is one from a 91-92. Jeff

    Cam Swap

    It's pretty straight forward. There are no bearings, and the shims are held in by the cam. That is to say they're not really held in, but the lip on the bucket and the cam on top of them prevent them from coming out. Adjustable cam gears allow you to change when the cams open/close. You...

    code/decode 7m origin?

    You should be fine to ask for Supra parts. There is no real way of telling what it's from, as things can be swapped/changed. Stuff was similar enough though, and any big differences would have had to have been changed to Supra stuff before swapping it in. As for the oil pan, Toyota didn't use a...

    Any oldschool SLR users? (non digital)

    I have a couple older Canon SLR's. A couple AE-1's, an A-1, and an FTb. I've also used the EOS 1n quite a bit, they're all pretty neat, I really like the FTb, but it's not as advanced as some of the other ones. Haven't used them in over a year probably though. Love the film. Jeff

    Is my job ripping me off?

    Depends on your employment agreement. I know for a fact that the dealership I work at has forms signed upon start of employment stating that it may be the responsibility of the employee to cover the insurance deductible in the event they damage a vehicle. $1100 does not sound too high at all...

    whats the worst from crossing the battery terminals

    Sounds like when you crossed the wires it made the car think it was an Infinity. Better go down to the dealer and pick up some new Infiniti emblems so the car knows what it is again. (PS: Usually it will blow one of the high-current fusible links, but without being more familiar with Nissan, I...

    The answer to my 3 months long oil issue...

    I typically install valve seals the way Adjuster posted, install the seal first, lube the valve, and push it up through the seal with my finger over the end of the seal. Works beautifully IMO. In this case, there's absolutely no excuse for the valve seals to look like that. I'd definitely take...

    Jesus offered his universal message of love to all of society’s outcasts.

    What difference does it make now that it's on the internet? It's been announced to the entire world instead of just people she knows, lol.

    7mgte and 7mge rod, main, and thrust bearings the same?

    Yes, the 7M-GE and 7M-GTE use all the same bearings, that being said, Toyota doesn't really use thrust bearings ever, they typically use thrust washers. I assume that's what you meant though. Jeff

    Interesting video of the W16 block being made from scratch

    They didn't show any machining for cooling passages. It's disappointing, haha. Sweet though. Jeff

    OS Giken Triple Help

    I have a question, not sure if you've looked, but if you've got a movement alteration kit for a 1JZ R154, is the flywheel meant for the 7M, or the 1JZ, just thought I'd ask to be sure, haha! If you do end up needing a different movement alteration kit, OS Giken should sell one meant for the 7M...

    1JZ valve bucket shims?

    Just to confirm, yes, they are the same as the 2JZ. They are NOT the same as the 7M. Jeff

    Mahle 7M pistons

    I'd just like to add that Mahle is also who made the TRD race pistons for the 4A-G, and they're also the owner of Clevite bearings. They're quality stuff. Jeff

    Starlet Love

    The 4K and 4K-E in the KP61 Starlet are 1.3L engines. They have about 60-65hp. Meh, depends if you can find one from someone who doesn't know any better. Though myself I'd still go with a late model 4A-GZE and turbo that, it's a much better starting platform, IMO. The 7A is nice though I...
