Hey guys, how can i tell what number of 500 it is? Is it on the compliance plate? or?

Awesome, now i have to organize a 2day trip down there to get it if the guy doesnt sell it before i get there :S

And the last of the pics, since i cant do anymore then 5 a go argh.

Ok guys i have some pics, tell me what you think? Oh also with my last post when i said attached to the AFM there isnt any on this car, good sign ? ;)

Yea i read that a few hrs before i posted on here, thanks anyway :) ---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ---------- Thanks for that lot of info, that is perfect, just what i was looking for, and so far from what im seeing, this car is the real deal...

Hi guys its been yrs since ive last posted on here, but i have come across a possible genuine Turbo-A. But i want to make sure that it is. Now does any one know whats meant to say on the compliance plate? and also any other features that i should be aware of to make sure this is the real...

Naaa thats fine, id say you are right now, but when i bought the supra i was on very good money, up to $1800 a week back in the day when i got the MK3, but a few yrs past and i lost that job, then got enough job then i got ill, heart and blood pressure problems which made me not able to do the...

You bet im going to need it, thats a under statement. I earn $10000 a year and $8000 of that goes to just simple bills, so i have $2000 a yr to spend on what i want, $1700 of that has gone to car, some how i gotta get another $1500 for GF's plane ticket and enough money for a engagement ring. So...

I can understand it with the head as it is made out of alot softer metal, but with a cast iron block my god the indent that would be in the block would be so small that the human eye could not see this, it was checked with a ruler and was perfectly flat, the head had the indent and it was very...

Yep thats right, no way in the world i was going to afford getting the block skimmed, as it cost me $1700 to do what has been done, and that was even 400-500 over my budget :3d_frown: So what i have done is the best i can do with what cash i have. Getting the block done would of doubled the price.

The block is fine, it was checked and it was fine, as i said above we found what the problem was and it has been fixed. The gasket will last ages now, since the other one lasted 5yrs and well it wasn't even the gasket that failed it was that there was a indent in the head that started to leek...

Ok well i have got the head done and replaced the head gasket, a metal head gasket from the machinist that skimmed the head that he recommended for this engine, Injectors done, and cams redone as well. There was a indent on the head that was around the area where the gasket sealed to the head...

Cheap and reliable as i just cant afford to get the block shaved, that would mean id have to take the engine out and ship it to a different city, and or take the car there, which means id have to trailer it up there. It will cost me around $1300 to do what i want to do and that about all i can...

Hello Xistant, o ok kool melbourne hey? cool my sister lives there now, having fun with all the smoke? terrible fires gezzz its shocking. 5yrs owning a supra thats pretty good (what sort), i have owned mine for yea 7yrs or so i cant remember now lol, but i sorta lost track of the car ever since...

Indeed it shouldn't of failed :3d_frown: but the guy i got to get it done did a crap job, as i found out after, the head wasn't sent away to be tested (alloy heads warp) and he didn't tighten the head down as i told him to tot he right torque settings, but i must admit was on stock head bolts...

Thanks for the info, i originally put a metal hg on the car 5yrs ago or so, so im now looking for something better, anything that will last for awhile. Im running stock boost, nothing high, id like to push it higher but not since it keeps killing gaskets. The head will be sent away and crack...

Hello everyone, it's been ages since i been on here again (shame on me). Anyway as the title states i need a new head gasket for my 7M-GTE, the old one that was replaced 30.000kms ago has started to leak into the cylinder head:cry: So i have got ARP head bolts and there in already but didn't...

Im a Aussie Supra owner, been a supra owner for like 7yrs now i guess, with the same old supra, needs some help with it now tho, head gasket is leaking again =/ ill start a new thread with the help i need with it. How many Aussie Supra owners are on here?

Ya i know, but its not a stock HG, its a after market metal one, ordered from sydney yrs ago. Its more of a test it, and see what happens, if it works YAY, if not, then yea ill have to get the whole lot done again =/ Which means asking my perents for money :3d_frown:

Yea i know, just that it will cost alot more, and at this stage my budget is not alot. Its not a BHG yet, ive had a leeking head gasket before on a 5-ME motor, it never blew just leeked, but i got it completely replaced back then. And when my first HG blew on my supra, you know when it blows...
