Well while trying to drop a 7mge from a MX83 into my wife's MKIII supra, I noticed a very large difference.

The capped off heater hose thing that is behind the exhaust manifold is not on Cressida engines. Instead on Cressida engines, the passenger side port (which is capped on USDM supras) is open and THAT is the port that goes to the heater core return. Sadly the OTHER side is WELDED/brazed shut. I found the tubes from the Supra engine, however I highly doubt I'm getting it around the head with the engine in the car. So I get to spend tomorrow UNDOING everything I did for the last 2 days and remove the engine again (unless anyone has any ideas). Here's a picture of it on a supra, and below that is the back of the line on a cressida

yay, thanks poodles. after I get it off I'm going to see if that cap will pop off or not, but atleast not I know one of the big differences between the x8 and a7 7m's lol. (Really wish I would have caught this before the engine went in).
