I missed it too... Prior Supra work plans and just had to execute.... deadlines are drawing near!

Thanks you guys! :D bloodasp90, it won't change at all at idle or lower RPMS. Shimming the spring only delays the pump from recirculating oil back into the pan. I am not sure what it was at before, but I will certainly know (since I will be fixing my oil pressure gauge as well!) what it...

I was gonna say I got the booze covered;) but yes... bring beer! I can't drink the stuff, I am allergic to gluten D:

This is fantastic news!

Hi Baby:)

Sweet haha thanks man I'll take it! When can we meet up? Granted I haven't gotten my motor back yet even but I say we crash Shawns house;)

Oh that actually looks really fucking rad! I see how that can make life easier fine I'll borrow it;) haha thanks guys! And I've actually been good about being less stubborn I did have a lot of help this weekend with body work: ��

Cuz I'm a badass I don't need help;) actually I did call you Shawn are you forgetting?? Haha I needed your advice on something but now I forget what it was. :/ Nahh I don't think I'll need a leveling bar I don't even know what it is haha! I'm thinking of just raising the rear end of the car up...

Absolutely. :)

Cleaning up/shaving my engine bay and picking up my 7M from the machine shop, then assembling, rebuilding my R154

Perfect, I am keeping mine stock. I will have some pictures of the motor when I pick it up, none from the machine shop yet, but I can provide these in interim! Yes, I will be assembling it myself. I will take lots of pictures when I do this, too, promise.

Right, thank you Shawn. That's what I thought also:)

No, I work at an independent shop now called Atomic Auto. I work on everything but still about 50% newer Toyota since that's my specialty:) basically got a pay raise and a promotion and closer to my house, plus not flat rate anymore, and I left Toyota on such good terms I can still buy parts at...

What's wrong with the Banjo bolt?? From my experience (not much) they are not prone to failure?? I have replaced/rebuilt several power steering lines in Toyotas and the banjo fitting has never been an issue... I steer clear of anything braided from bad experience ....

...but isn't that stock?? Or, am I thinking of the wrong line?? Pardon the picture, this is the only one I have from the teardown that has the pump and oil line still installed... my engine was nasty.

I Testing here.... Uploaded a picture from my phone. Stopped by the Toyota dealer (that I used to work at and still get emouee rate at) today. Picked up a replacement reverse gear operating sleeve and syncros. Not sure entirely but from what it looks like to me this also engages first. As I...

Are you referring to this? http://www.arizonaperformance.com/7M_OPS_page.html What's the advantage? I have seen it before, but haven't considered it. Share your insight, please! And how much HP are you running? How do you like the pistons? Did you clean yours up at all?? And thanks for the...

For your amusement... here's a selfie from the moment before I hooked up the engine hoist. (hearts added by some lame app on my phone) Behind me is my toolbox and workbench and bolt bins.... at work, where I spend 60 hours a week. It's kind of nice to be there on the weekends when no one else is...

I got some Probe pistons from Driftmotion: http://www.driftmotion.com/Probe-7MGTE-Pistons-5mm-p/dm86.htm Had to get new ones due to how worn my block is, so figured may as well get some fancy ones:) Talked to a couple people who are running them with great results and 100s more hp than I will...
