http://www.flickr.com/photos/64379129@N07/6391888985/ Its the line behind the 02 sensor with a spark plug plugging the line. The mechanic that did my motor said "You don't need this", well blown headgasket later. I put it all together myself and was driving it today and noticed coolant leaking...

My question is will 92 moldings fit on an 87? The rear section im not worried about because i plan on changing it to the 92 style. Im most worried about whether or not the mounting points are the same for the later model moldings.

This is a question for the removal of the crankshaft pulley. It isn't stated in my manual which way the bolt is threaded and after just using an impact gun running at 160 psi regulated im starting to worry that lefty loosey might just be lefty tighty. I have the JDM 7m, is there even a...

Well I know i said a long time ago that I would do a build thread, so here it goes. Im also going to put up the cars I work on during my weekends at the body shop with my father in law. He is teaching me to do bodywork and painting. Working with him on the weekends has forced me to take...

Well I had the head off and put the new head on. I made a huge mistake (i think). Look at the picture below, look to the far right where you are supposed to put the FIPG or sealer in those two places. I ended up covering the hole when I put the headgasket on because I put to much sealer on. I...

I have a 7mgte and plan on lapping the block, i was looking for lapping plates and realized there are many different variants. What should i look for in a lapping plate? Also, the compounds have various grit types. I am guessing through what research i have done to go with the 280 grit compound...

Just as the title states, im trying to figure out how much i will need to save all together and i have no idea how much it would cost to have the machining done. I know i won't get exacts i just need good estimates. Not in quid or pounds either, i am american and have no idea how they translate...

I have an 87 turbo supra with the good ole' 7m and have really been wondering, what steps should i take for a good strong 12 second pass? I know a twelve doesn't sound like much but that will be a strong time for a street car. Oh and here are the things i will not do to achieve this time, will...

Hello everyone, im doing the headgasket swap and was wondering do i have to remove the crankshaft pulley to change the headgasket? It says in the tsrm online to do so but if i could aviod that headache i would be extremely happy. The timing belt is a gates and is in very nice condition so there...

I was just wondering if i should stick with the idea of having a metal head gasket like the HKS stopper or getting something that can be easier to make a good seal without the need of having the head machined practically perfect. I thought about swapping to a 2jz but i figured i could build a...

I want to know if it has been done or is it even possible to put OVER 1000hp on a 7MGTE motor? Im not saying 900hp or 800hp im saying over the 1000hp mark to the wheels. I just haven't heard of one yet. I know that much power is not necessary on a 7MGTE, but i just want to know.

So are there any good shops any of you know of close to the houston beamont area? This will be for a headgasket replacement using an HKS stopper + ARP headstuds and head machining will be needed. Also, are there any performance shops around here specailizing in tuning and performance...

Does anybody know where i can get the molding strips that go all the way around the car? They need to be new, i need these to be able to repaint my supra. Model is a 1987.:1zhelp:

Okay, i looked around i could find nothing on this. So does the thickness matter (MM wise)?Im gonna keep the pistons at stock bore and stroke, the head will most likely need machining. Also any tips on the sealer i should use and how much torque I should i use to tighten it down? On 7mpower.com...

I have had my 1987 supra for 2 years, went through a lot! One day it just started smoking like crazy(burning oil), motor had caught fire because the dipstick is right under the turbo and oil was flying all over it. My wifes dad worked at a body shop and decided to suprise me with a swap while i...
