Can someone point me in the direction of a quality thermal/sound dampening coating? I'm looking to pull all the super heavy asphalt crap and replace it with something more professional and much lighter.
Have some patience people. I certainly do not have thousands of dollars and a team of people building it. I thought I made it clear that the engine that is in my supra right now is on the fritz and will have a new engine put in soon (2-3 weeks). After that is paid for then I will be able to...
Well I know I want a badass MK3, so the engine build that is posted here will probably be altered slightly, but will still continue as planned.
I guess I got some thinking and researching to do on the MK2.
I've been thinking a lot about this engine and, of course your are correct about not needing 800hp to drift, this build may be taken down a notch and built more for a daily driver.
I was thinking of picking up a local MK2 that is in good shape body/frame wise and using that for the drift car...
Probably not as it would be a bit over the top. Right now I have two partial engines. The one I spoke of before is for the engine build posted(bored .0334 over with the forged pistons). I also have a block/head with all the internals and am having both resurfaced. My builder is going to swap...
I haven't been groveling for support hence the sarcasm. I just don't understand how you can't get over the fact this is just a thread for the build of the ENGINE...thats all.
Keros posted this "Are you going to do anything for the longitudinal rigidity of the 7M? I recall a thread...
I guess the nay sayers will have to wait for something more aesthetically interesting. Can't blame them I guess. The reason there is ONLY an engine build sheet is because that is the current project. I don't think I could dumb it down any further. Anyway, let me get back to groveling for your...
Looking forward to hearing the 'AWESOME' in my car in a couple of years.
Was there anything else abnormal when doing the sustained high rpm runs other than the odd wear you experienced?
I'm trying (budget in mind) to use the lightest and strongest parts out there for the internals in...
Good to know. If you could IJ, can you describe what you mean by "funky" any further? And how high of RPMs are you talking about. I'm guessing around 8-9k.
I did some searching on google to see if I could find any information on the longitudinal rigidity of inline piston type engines and came up with nada.
My question is...Are there any draw backs in the physical design of inline piston engines (7M NA block specifically) in highly stressful...
I'm also doing a twin turbo 7M build and my guy could probably do it. Check out my build thread. Let me know...time frame...budget...turbo specs...all the necessaries.

I've messed around with drifting but not for any extended periods of time; aka runs through wallyworld parking lots. I've watched countless videos and read about it as much as I can. The nice thing about this build is the car as a whole won't be ready for probably 2-3 years so I have plenty of...
