Can the billet steel flywheels be resurfaced like stockers or are they a one time deal and need to be replaced on future clutch changes.
For reference...
I did talk to the guy I bought it from (former coworker) and he did say that when the head gasket went, the did put new OEM bearings in it. The head was resurfaced with the appropriate size MHG and was done by a 7M guy in the Raleigh, NC area. Rings and pistons have never come out of the...
I have a 7MGTE with 216,000 on the clock. Motor had a MHG put on it earlier in it's life w/arps. Motor uses no water and never overheats in the brutal summers of Florida. I wanted to see how much life was in her before throwing some mods on, so a buddy and I did a compression test tonight...
Wow two MKIII's.... you really won't have any spare time now. Kinda like the old joke about getting a Jaquar. Buy two, so you have one to drive while the other is in the shop :)
It appears that my previous owner used a gasket on the oil pan instead of the Toyota or aftermarket liquid gasket? I can see that the gasket has pushed out of the sides and has a slight leak. Can the pan be dropped enough to redo the gasket or does the engine have to be pulled?
Really, I never knew that? So why are all the newer kits bar and plate?
So would an HKS kit with pipes be worth $800 shipped or would it be better to get an spearco bar and plate for $400 (eBay) and buy pipes?
I am not an expert, but this isn't a bar and plate intercooler is it?

Yeah, I weighed the options of going Ct-26 upgrade with DDP, SP-61GT, or BOSS. With the whole kit, I think I came out ahead. I will now have more options for the turbo in the future since I am not tied to a stock manifold anymore. I was worried about it being laggy but guys on SF say this is...
Well after many hours of indecisiveness on going 1J or 7M, I made my mind up. This finalizes my decision. What do you guys think?

Now on to the rest...
OK guys, I am moving on from the stock CT-26 to a larger turbo and 550's. I would really like to go with the MAFT-Pro, but I know it would be way over my head on the installation. I know my limitations, and I want the car to run correct and be reliable. In addition, I don't want my car to be...
Aaron, are you saying that you will "rebuild" the used engine with a complete mirror edge on the head and lap the block? What do you charge to do the MHG, oil pump, new seals, and ARP studs.
