What do you define as a small upgrade? To me, shimming the wastegate is small and it adds a bit of power. another small thing is the LEX 550 mod. That is a small and quick thing to do, and adds quite a bit. To most of us everything short of swapping a motor out is a small upgrade. Mainly because...
Having the rod knock, plus it's an NA, needs body love, and high milage makes it worth hardly anything to a buyer. It is a lot of work to get the NA turbo swap done up. Doesn't really matter how low the milage is on the GTE motor. Only because the new buyer will be looking into rebuilding that...
HG would need to be changed. I would just pull the engine and do a full rebuild on it. New piston rings, new bearings, new head gasket, new head bolts, and torque it down good and tight and you will be ok. As far as the auto goes, yes it can be towed. You could always put it in N and drag it...
If you want to make the sound louder then put it on a megaphone. Why do people really want the BOV to be as loud as possible? Is this done to attract attention in the hopes of finding another car to race? I personally want mine as quiet as possible. The car itself in this area attracts enough...
Will the interior from a pre 89 work in a post 89. The interior in the 1990 that I just got is shot. I am wanting to know if the interior in the 88 will fit with no issues at all. If it does.....I know what I am doing tomorrow.
How true that is. I did a quick tally on parts that are mandatory to do the swap and some that are recommended because of their age, and just in parts alone I came out around $3000. Then add a $2,000-$2,500 2JZGTE. I spend around 800 on misc crap, and said to hell with it. I gave up and started...
I had a 500+ 7MGTE on a T70, and come to find out that not a damn thing inside was upgraded on the engine, and it was a DD for a bit. It is mainly on how you drive it. Yes you will HAVE to upgrade the internals. But as a daily driver, as long as he doesn't drive it like he stole it, which is how...
What he means is Dr. Pervert. Dude has a PHd in that crap....lol. Back on topic now.... Everything looks good!
Oh so does the car...lol. Let me know if you need some upgraded stuff. I'm parting my Supra out. I have a for sale thread with some stuff perfect for that year.
Very well could be the valve stem seals. Letting all the oil in the cylinder. I had a similar issue a few years ago but mine was the turbo seals. Since you have a known good one on there I am voting for the stem seals.
Here is the thing.....With all those shiny bits your throwing at it.....If that is a stock ECU....Your not going to get anywhere close to your power goals. Hell I would be surprised if you got anywhere on boost. Maybe a few psi but nothing more. You are going to hit FC so dang fast......
Also if...
How the hell do you get sponsored? I have been asking companies for about 13 years about sponsorship and all of them say "Oh not right now" or " We are not offering sponsorship as of now"
If you want to have to tune everything for the MAFT and map ecu, then run them. My VPC was plug and run. I have no AFM, ran 20 psi on a T70 and not a single issue. I left all the knobs at 12 o clock until I tuned my Fcon, which was a knob and a few pulls on the highway. In all it took me about...
