Any of you guys have information on BLKJET the MA70 that put down 565rwkw@10500rpm at Melbourne Autosalon a couple of years ago? My ears felt like they were going to start bleeding it was screaming so loud lol, unfortunatly I don't know any of the specs, I used to have an article in an old Fast...

care to elaborate? are those Nippon pistons hypereutectic?

anyone had or know of someone thats had personal experience with aftermarket cast pistons of any description?

To be honest i'm not sure if my cylinders do need boring, more than one piston has scuffing but IMO the cylinder walls still all feel smooth, they definatly could use a hone and there is a little surface rust where the pistons rings were but there doesn't appear to be any physical scoring...

wow! you certainly did go all out for your supra build up :icon_bigg

ahhh did you buy the crate motor John from importbitz had for sale?

Holy mother of god! That rebuild looks amazing :O Btw, thanks dirgle that’s exactly the info I’m after, my mates and I will attempt to remove it tomorrow then. :)

cheers buddy though i already printed out most of the soarer relivant stuff on that site and made a work manual lol, As far as i can tell it's ready to come off, just want to know what sort of effort it usually takes. I'll definatly be getting the head shaved (presuming it isn't warped...

Hey guys, Only new here, but very stoked theres a 7m specific forum, i look forward to having a good read through it all and am sure it will become a vital recourse of mine. So i hope you don't mind that i don't actually have a Supra :icon_razz I picked up an mz21 a few months back, and...
