I just got the interior in my car back together today! It was still in pieces from last year's paint job. Just a couple more issues to handle and I will be all set!

Are there any local get-togethers planned? I should be up and running my the end of the month.

Musta missed your post. Really? that is a pretty common way of doing a 2JZ-GE swap - running it on 7M-GT electronics..


Moving my car home today from my storage unit:) Motor/trans is ready to go in!!!!

got mine running with help from dave, just now the issue is my turbo keeps blowing the turbo->ic hose right off once i get past 2500rpm PRETTY DAMN ANNOYING, gotta wait for a 2.5-2 inch coupler to come because i cant find anything smaller than a 2.5 inch at any auto parts store around here and the 2.5-2.5 i have doesnt help at all :(

hopefully that will solve my problem

Hey guys. I haven't posted in awhile but I need some input. My hg blew and I can't decide how thick of a gasket to get. My car is a stock 89 turbo with 170k. The po did the head gasket at 120k. The paperwork shows the head was sent in to get machined and got a valve job. Depending on how warped the head is, I might get it resurfaced too. I did not overheat the car and stopped driving it after it was losing coolant and saw smoke coming out the exhaust. I plan on keeping it mostly stock so my ? is, how thick of a hg should I get? I'd like to get the supra back on the road soon so please lmk. Getting sick of driving the v6 mr2 everyday. haha Also, Anybody know the torque specs for arp head studs for 7mgte?

Thanks
