and do a 5 speed swap

looked at the 87 sunday and i already am meeting the guy with the 89 tonight aha...didnt really like the 87 and its way too fin cold to swap a 5 spd right now aha

how was the 87s paint?

its not original and the front bumper had been chipped pretty badly...other than that it looked really good, interior wasnt as clean as i would like tho...but what do u expect for 2 grand

true.

im keeping my eye out for a 92 turbo targa with shadow grey interior... preferably in grey/silver/black.

I originally wanted a MK3 supra too but didn't like the automatic or RHD

Anyone know what it'd be like to swap a RHD to LHD? figure you just need a donor car?

Why wouldn't you just buy a LHD 5speed, it's not like there's a shortage of them.

RHDs have the 1J

yea but to swap rhd to lhd you need a donor car...swapping a 1J in would be way easier:confused:

O rly?

it was hard to find one in decent shape without 200,000+kms

The Japanese ones have fewer kms and are usually in way better condition, nicer options, from what i've seen... plus it's JDM

USDM ones have burgandy interior.. lolwat?

1j's are shit

1j's are shit and 2j's are the shit:)

Your spelling is usually shit, 1J's are great motors. I'd take a 1J over the 7M anyday of the week

donor cars are easy to find imho, maybe not supras? just find a non running supra... or check the j/y's

Non running MKIIIs are easy to find ;)

so are family 4 door sedans...add some 20s and a bit of camber and bam VIP baby ahahah

Donk is where it's at

this shows you how much you know

for the price of 1j plus swap and to get it to do 500hp

I can do less on a 7mgte and still have more torq

these are the 1j's con's


cams are shit
stock tiwns are shit
stock fule rails are shit
stock fuel injector's are shit
1j map sencer is shit
hydro fans are shit

there is reason why they made the 2j cause it was better

so this is short and sweet

7m or 2j

I'm sure when some of these imported Aristo's and supra's with 1j's get up to 250,000 - 280,000K, like all of the domestic 7m's, there will be a lot of non-running 1j's too.

^ if any thign is not cared for they will all die

90% of the reason people think the 7M isnt reliable is because of poor and cheap maintainence by owners. Build it properly and dont cheap out, and it will last for ages.

People say the 7m head gasket always blows out ive been hearing this from multiple people it is a re-occuring problem
