I am in the process of a swap from NA to GTE. I have a Pre 89 GTE and a 1989 car. I was looking into getting a turbo parts car. If I buy a 87 or 88 turbo car, can I just swap the parts or is it set in stone that a post 89 car has to have the electronics and harness from a post 89 car. The 87 and...

I ordered a cometic metal head gasket from importperformanceparts.com and in the mail I recieved a wiseco metal head gasket. Before I call them and start badgering them is this as good as a cometic? Anybody used this maker before?

I am about to seal up my oil pan and I was looking in the toyota factory manual. There are these diagrams with A, B And C with pictures that I cannot figure out what they are hinting at. Does anyone know the meaning of these diagrams? Also, How thick of a bead did you run of FIPG on your oil pan.

Now you guys got me all siked up. I was gonna just go with an upgraded ct-26 but now i am liking the sp61gt from sound performance. I went to their website and saw more than that turbo tho. I saw a sp58gt and sp59gt. Do all these bolt up to the stock 7mgte exhaust manifold? The sp61gt does bolt...

Guys, I hate to do this to ya but I am in the process of building up and swapping in 7mgte into my NA body. Shooting for 450 horses at the crank when all is said and done. As I have questions I will be submitting them to you guys because I figure someone has crossed these bridges before and why...

I am in the process of swapping 7mgte in my NA body. I curretly like my NA setup for the power steering. Do i have to use the one from the turbo motor or can I use the one from the NA motor?
