I'll trade him the 7m that's in my wife's car for his 2jz.
Keylan, I think this might be the idea of the day. My motor is already out. It's still on the engine hoist, just call me , and we can make the trade this morning.............:evildeal:

Absolutely awesome build thread, and I'm glad that you saved a supra (even if it is a jellybean). What is your eventual power goal?

To whom it was that asked earlier, I will definitely be staying with the yellow! It is a factory honda color by the name of Indy Yellow Pearl. Truly a beautiful color in person when it is clean.

Foreverpyscotic- My eventual power goals after the 6-speed conversion and turbocharging will be 500whp on pump daily driver if need be. But I would like to have more horsepower on tap for whenever I go the track and whatnot. A t-61 will get me the 500, but I don't like to be pushing the turbo too much, so I will most likely be going with a dbbT67. Should be pretty awesome.

Vonda- I know you would love to have the 2JZ, but I'm not sure how happy I would be to have the 7M. Hahaha. I have had plenty of rod knock in my first hondas to last me a while. hahaha.

Vonda's motor isn't fubar'd but it's pretty bad. It's a remanufactured motor and now it has six thousand miles on it and the number six rod bearings are royally fuc*ed! One half of the bearing is scarred and chipped and the other half is broken in half. I'm dropping the block off tomorrow to get the crank turned and new bearings installed. This will be the last dollar I ever spend on another 7m.

That's looking gorgeous Keylan. I know where you've welded it and I can't see the body work at all. Great job you and your dad have done.............:love:
