i just noticed in one of your pic's.the 2jz-ge water pipe that run's along the block faces up,which make's it nice for connecting to the heater core.on my gte block it shoot's straight out taking up dp space.i'm going to have to get me one of them,for next time my manifold is off.

well, i finally got the 7m out... so, that's chillin on the floor. now the fun will begin. to install the new engine :evil2:
well, this BLOWS i dont think the pan is going to clear. i'm having a hell of a time trying to get the engine in. ofcourse the damn pan is hitting the cross member and its not allowing the engine to go anymore back. i dont know. i think the metal lower portion is not the right one, because the damn thing ALMOST fits. i dont know what to do. i guess now the stupid project is on hold again...:3d_frown:
looking at your pics in the first page, your pan seems to be a true Mid sump pan as opposed to the mid/rear pan found on the 1j/2j supras. That might be why it seems so close to fitting but does not. There was a thread somewhere showing different types of pan for the 1j/2jzs, but I couldn't find it. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
This is yours from the first page
This is a mid/rear 1j sump, you can see the slight difference.

yeah i was looking at mine and i knew it wasnt that one. also though people say since its a mid sump its supposed to clear, i dont believe it does, i've found myself trying to take off the valve covers to get it back some more, but no luck. it just stays on top of that cross member. so, i'm going to try to source out a rear sump pan. because this is driving me crazy... it was awesome to see the whole thing together finally, but then that had to happen. so close yet so far.
thanks, i'm going to know a lot more whats going to happen on monday. until then i think i'll just keep making modifications to the car and its parts to keep finishing things on my list. i still have more little things to do. i'm looking to hopefully be done by thanksgiving. we'll see.

unfortunately, its on the main one... kinda sucks because the engine is just sitting almost all the way in the car =( but hopefully today i get this issue resolved. there's a guy here locally that has a rear sump pan and pickup. i hope i can get this thing from him tonight.
i posted on another "supra forum" the answer to this question. but i'll throw it up on here too. i dont know what car its from i was told a mk4. either way, i have the rear sump installed now. the engine goes in tomorrow. here are some update pics, i stopped working on the car at 1am just because i want to wake up at some reasonable hour tomorrow to get a lot of work done.
here's the broken 7m with my iron man valve covers on it.
my car is missing its heart =(
rear sump pan before installation... not bad for 50 bucks!!
the mid sump that was on there, errrrrr.
2jz+r154... i never thought i'd get to this point!
and the only reason i took this pic was because i had none of it with the belt on.

more progress...
the downpipe ALOMST cleared. i thought i did a pretty good job for not even mocking it up on the car. no pics of that...
engine in, THANK GOD!
stock 7m high pressure line modified to fit the 2jz... i basically bent the hard lines around carefully to take up the slack. i'll have one made when this one craps out.
heater hose routing in the back. i have the transmission jacked up a tad for more clearance, so, thats why the gap is big back there.
more progress is coming.

your getting there,hopefully she purr's like a kitten and bite's like a dawg
oh yeah! huh word... i kinda like that idea more. i remember you saying something i think earlier about that... whoops!
