    rod knock or valve shimming needed?

    Well after searching my butt off and downloading a TSRM i took my 87 na down to the cams and valve lifters. I have had a pretty decent ticking/ knocking sound going on.

    7m harness

    I am thinking about a 7mgte swap into my na supra. Can I use a 89 turbo ecu and harness in my 87 car? Or does the harness have to be the same year as the body? Thanks

    Putting nitrous to a 7mge

    So bottom line, how big of a shot will a stock, good condition 7mge take with the proper supporting fuel mods? And an mhg with arp studs. I know the stock block will handle around 400wrhp.... Why can't i do that with nitrous?
