    How to Determine If a Engine Is a Real JDM Engine

    I did a JDM swap into mine, the 7MGTE in the US and in Japan are the EXACT SAME with the exception of smog parts. I put an EGR, EGR Cooler plate, USDM Thermostat Housing, BVSV, VSV, and a USDM Throttle Body on mine. Therefore it is now the exact same as a USDM 7MGTE. This one just has 45k...

    6M Vrs. 7M cranks ¿What is the difference?

    AFAIK they are interchangeable, and the difference is the balancing. The 7M is balanced better than the 6M.

    Strange "blender" like sounds from car!

    Turbo or Exhaust. There is a lot more load on the exhaust when the engine is under load. You can't make full boost out of gear ;)

    Anonymous HG Poll

    If you're not going for big power, a composite will be fine... For bigger boost, a MHG is usually a good idea. The question is kind of open-ended. I'm stock and I have a Toyota OEM with no problems, but if I were to increase boost and detonate, there might be a problem with my composite.

    overheats when driving long distances and coolant the overflows tank.

    I had the same symptoms and it turned out to be a blocked rad as well, but when he car was spitting coolant, it was a BHG. This guy doesn't have the stock rad though, he has a Koyo.

    overheats when driving long distances and coolant the overflows tank.

    Automatic Turbo

    I had an auto when I first got my car. It's a five speed now, and I'll never look back. Auto's aren't very strong... The R154 is a very beefy transmission and can take a lot of horsepower where as the Auto's don't like the abuse.
