Wow, I registered 15 years ago! It feels like only yesterday when I got my first supra at 19 years old. I've blown up a few, and rebuilt a few, and enjoyed every minute of it. Without this forum, I never would have had the confidence to take on those early builds and develop into who I am today...

Got a hold of one, thanks!

i was unaware that there was a circlip, i don't suppose this is something that i can get from toyota is it? I may have to rig something up.

I have a stock ct26 with an mbc set to ~12psi. Every once in a while, my wastegate rod/arm will come off of the wastegate hinge. It's really annoying, because i have to wait for the car to cool off and then remove the accordian hose, unbolt the wastegate, re-attach it to the hinge, and then...

i replaced the turbo, mine had miles of shaftplay.. The oil pressure is now within spec, if not a little higher than before i had this issue. Apparently my turbo was so far gone that it was affecting my oil pressure :aigo:

i blew my turbo, havent had a chance to even touch my car in months :(

Any thoughts on this? I've got a bunch of F body friends that think they are hot shit with their live axles when we cruise back roads :biglaugh:

I've had an issue with the cps leaking before and i've replaced the o-ring on it. It doesn't leak anymore, its possible that i didn't install one of the front seals properly. This was the first motor that i've ever built, so i've been paying for my mistakes since day one. It's a wonderful...

yeah its a composite with ARP studs, and it will be another one this time. Its just an engine to play with, i have a 2jzge that i'm building for an na-t swap. My 7m will probably never see over 300hp, it's there to keep me entertained and to set up megasquirt as i will be using 7m components on...

I believe it was, but it's been a while. It feels flush with the deck, if that matters.

I guess I made it out to be more complicated than it really is lol. Hopefully this will eliminate that pesky oil leak, thanks for the info!

I leak a little bit of oil from my timing case, and i've read in the tsrm that you are supposed to apply 'packing seal'(which i assume can be permatex 'the right stuff') to these 2 points on the timing case: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=EM&P=55 I rebuilt my...

Welcome! you can get a good start by reading the na-t faq here: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113579 As far as aftermarket and stock parts, check out driftmotion.com. They have most of what you'll need.

Hi! i have an '87 turbo with a rebuilt 7m. I have a 2jzge that will I probably swap in next winter(na-t of course) with hopes of a solid 450ish whp. I've got stock brakes, full interior weight, and bilstein struts on stock springs. I cruise some twisty back roads with some friends twice a month...

I just pulled the oil cooler relief spring, and it still seems pretty stiff. Is there something specific that I should look for?

The oil cooler is stock, i run 6 qts, and the pcv system doesn't seem to have any excessive oil and it is the stock routing.

I got the idea from the 7m assembly tips thread by Adjuster: http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5631 I would drop the pan but i'll have to borrow a hoist so it will be a bit. In the meantime i'll check the oil cooler relief

The oil level is fine. I measured the depth of the pan with a straight edge and ever so slightly bent the pickup tube to come about 3/8" from the bottom of the pan. Should i not have done this? I've had 8,000 miles of good oil pressure, why would it do this now? I know that my turbo is pretty...
