ok so I'm having a major problem I have a 87 n/a 7mge supra. I drove it down the street when it started knocking I checked the oil it had 1 quart left in it.I have no idea where its coming from I checked my oil and there's no metal filings to suggest spun bearings. I also pulled off my spark plugs 1 at a tyme and the knocking didn't go away. I'm stumped lol if any1 has n idea and could help it would be appriciated. you can reach me on aim at streetsleeper87 if u want to get into contact with me. thanks

Go ahead and get ready to replace the bearings or the whole engine. If you have got a knock now its just gonna get worse. Go ahead and get it rebuilt before you destroy the crank.

Just make sure you check the replacement engine, because it may have a knock as well. The kid I purchased my car from had a shop swap in a "JDM" engine, and that engine ended up having a rod knock.

Good luck.

So...let me get this straight. You said in post #1 that this was a 7M and now you say it's a 2JZ? Or, are you saying you have a 2JZ short block with a 7M head?

I'd really like to see the fitment of that 2jz crank in a 7m block....

Raping a stock Metro, Civic, or Tempo isn't really saying much. When you get your n/a to run with a GT Mustang, you can talk smack then.
