    Good evening everyone, Long-time reader and longer-time hermit here looking for some input on mostly OE grade replacement parts for a 7M rebuild. My '89 has been burning oil on deceleration for a few years and has over 325k on the clock, so I think it's time for new piston rings at the very...
  2. MKIII Technical
    Hi guys, I am rebuilding a 7M-GTE with a 6M cank. As this is my first engine rebuild, I am really paranoid about messing up the torque specs. I found these online and just want someone with experience to confirm whether they are right or not: Main bearings Renew bolts/nuts: No Main bearings...

    Got this 7mgte rebuild, clearance for mains are .03-.056, this is the lowest clearance I got. How long would the engine last? Everything is STD

    These SSTs are expensive. Anyone found a cheaper alternative for the Toyota Universal Puller?

    Anyone know the Inner Diameter of the toyota transmission oil plug for R154 or the OD of the extension housing you put it on? Sounds like an incredible waste of money and time to try and get that part for a transmission drop when I have a 3D printer that can make something out of ASA and a TPU...

    I just got my hands on a 86 2.8 for $100 needs the work you would expect but I know little to nothing about this model. I have many questions and this seems like the place to ask. Where should I look for parts? is the transmission any good? the engine is locked up should I fix it or find a new...

    So my dad left me his old 88mk3. He had it 2j swapped and was twin turbo but then went to single turbo. Anyways before he died he was tearing it apart because something happened with the flywheel for like the 5th time. He ended up selling the transmission and computer and probably some other...

    I am swapping a 7MGE into my project and was in the process of resealing the engine. I’m new to engine reseal/rebuild. I encountered a slight abrasiveness on the cylinder walls in a couple spots (the parts car has been sitting for about 3 years). I know it would be good to go ahead and hone it...

    I recently got the short block rebuilt on my 7M-GTE and got a brand new crankshaft, piston rings, pistons, and got the engine block bored out a little bit and have a few questions about the break in process. How do I break it in? What are the procedures to ensure the longevity of the engine...
  12. MKIV (1993-1998)
    My dad and I have a black 1997 Turbo 15th Anniversary Supra. The engine and chassis is at around 244K mileage and we want to put new engine parts into the engine to make the car run longer. Does anyone know where are good companies or sites to buy legitimate parts for the 2JZ-GTE engine?

  14. MKIII Technical
    My 91 Supra had issues moving from a stop, I would have to put it in Low to get it started then put it in drive after getting up to 2nd gear speed to for it to move without it acting like it would slip from a take off in Drive. I drove it to work (car dealership) and it stopped wanting to move...

    Hello, After an engine rebuild already performed on my 1991 Supra my plan is to change oil at 500 miles, at 1500 miles, and then on every 3000 miles. My techs used semi-synthetic oil so I am facing going on using semi-synthetic according to the plan. I live in Buenos Aires so my choices are...
  16. MKIII (1986.5-1992)
    Today a friend of mine recommended sending my engine in to Jasper Performance Group for a rebuild. He claims they can make a 7M-GE gain 50hp more than stock form for a price of $3k plus parts, with a 3 year 100k mile warranty included. It sounds too good to be true. Does anyone have experience...

    Hey guys just wanted to show off my babies...so about a year ago I picked up my 88 NA, I began doing a lot of research into building a mid 300hp fun street car. As I read more and more my hopes began to get crushed trying to accept the cost to benefit of building an NA to my power goal. Fast...

    What's up! I've been taking pics of my project so far and want to share them with you. I got my Supra from my grandpa when I was 16 (born in 90') and it had issues all throughout high school until it finally quit in 09 (VAPOR LOCK). I was able to store it all these years and now I have a garage...
