not what i was saying at all. its not like the car will be built over night.. i know how much cash i have now and i need it to be back on the road so if there was a chance i could do it the right way now instead of doing it twice i was gonna try

i was afriad of that i just dont want to have to do this when i start going with a different turbo and more boost and then pop it did it again

is this always the case i know a few people who have done a metal head gasket without doing the block just cleaning the hell out of it. im buying the parts tonight i want to do a MHG because i dont exactly plan on 500hp soon but i know i have this mod addiction SO I MIGHT AS WELL DO THIS ONE...

If it is a bhg would it continue to blow out white smoke ? I had turned on the car and drove it about 3 miles with no white smoke or any overheating tod/ first time it had been on in 2days.

That he did I am going to ahead and fix it. Guess I'm going to go with a stock HG and studs after getting head machined. Anything else I'm missing while doing this that should be replaced? Assuming it is a bhg?

what all has to be done... i have no clue what i need to do when it comes to wiring

So im thinking this is the better way to go? already has transmission and rear sump http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOTA-SUPRA-TWIN-TURBO-ENGINE-SWAP-JDM-1JZGTE-/270678638526?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f05b43fbe

For example going with this since i already have the R-154 what else do i need beside small stuff like hoses what big parts will i be missing? And if i buy one thats auto what will i have to change to make it manual in the wiring is it the same as doing it on a 7m just a NS switch bypass...

Currently car is 89 7mGTE R-154 Transmission so my 7mgte blew the head gasket. so i decided i am going with a 1JZ. I need help on heads up with the swap and any good place to source the motor trusted places and cheap ones i have about $2,000 i have a R-154 i can use my question will i...

I have a 7mgte out of a 87 that is in good shape would it be easier just to throw that into the 89?

This unfortunately is my only vehicle. And I'm afraid I might not be mechanically inclined for all that. ---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ---------- But I definitely can't afford a shop to do it. ---------- Post added at 12:32 PM ---------- Previous...

How much is it to get a head machined on avg? And going with a stock head gasket isn't gonna make me run into problems in the future again? When I start Modding the car more? I know torque it above specs helps but will it last?

Would you trust this as a replacement? http://lightningmotorsports.com/arp/arp_main_stud/bolt_kits/2035402/i-61574.aspx http://lightningmotorsports.com/hks/hks_metal_head_gaskets/11116153195/i-38834.aspx ---------- Post added at 02:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 AM ----------...

So I'm using my phone to use the internet thus I can't do much research could you describe what doing a leak down test is ?

I was afriad of that. ... no other possibility lol. I can't afford this.

OK so earlier today my car was overheating I found out it was low on water so I added some and it hadn't over heated since. I drove the car about 20miles fine turned it off for about 2hours and came outside turned it on and it was dumping tons of white Somme for about 2blocks and went away...

It overheated on street fan clutch has about 4k miles on it max ---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ---------- Only problem I can find is that stupid intercooler pipe broke up top. ---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06...

The guage went all the Way up overflow filled but didn't dump water. It wasn't smoking and did not take but 2 minutes for fan to sit off and to take all the water back from overflow
