How is it going everybody??? Just join this forum a few days ago. I'm new to the supra scene, even though I've seen many supra videos and cars, i decided to take on a project on my own!!! So, thats why i joined this forum, seems like there is a lot of info i can get from here. I have a 1986 supra non-turbo. I am on the process of takin the block to get check for cracks and see if i can rebuild this sucker!!! it had a blown head gasket and well it was not nice at all!!! number 2 piston was just bits and pieces so hopefully this block is still good!!! or else i would have to look for another one!!! im just finding out that there was a 1ggte for the mk3 (wow) i did not know that at all. I was hoping to do a swap but come to find out there is many mods so i decided to stick with the original 7MGE for now. If anybody knows of a swap that does not required that many mods i would appreciate the help. and by mods i mean cutting welding or so. thanks

hey welcome to the wonderful world of supras 
ive seen people do 1ggte,1jzgte,2jzgte,uzfe conversions before but the most common would prob have to be the 1jzgte (2.5 liter twinturbo six)
if i were you i prob wouldnt go with the 1ggte and just get a turbo 7mgte or turbo charge your 7mge but if you want to do a swap prob the 1jzgte would be a good option. if you need info have a look around the forums and ask people who have had experience with 1jz swaps and 7mgte swaps or just turbo charging the 7mge. or search for info on a certain topic and you should be ok when you decide to do any work on your supra.
also if you have pics of your supra i would like to see some and im sure alot of others too.
