Ain't that the truth!! I blew 3 seperate 7M's before I went 1JZ.
Serious? What sort of car is this/was this in? A70 Supra?
Nah, an X83 Cressida actually.
I love cars like this. Looks like absolute dog 🤬, but goes like 🤬 off a shovel.
Speaking of 7M's, I have a couple distant friends who are brothers, they both have A70 Supras with 7M's who manage to get good power out of them with little problems so far, they are doing it on a tight budget too. I have been suprised how well the almost stock internaled 7M's are coping.
They are very strong IF you get the head torqued down correctly. They are notorious for BHG's because the heads were never torqued down enough. Toyota only put 50Nm torque on the bolts, when they needed about 80Nm. Give it a few days of revving past 5k without torquing the head down more and the result is BHG.
Took me 3 motors before I learnt that but by then I just said F it and went 1JZ.
Why don you stop all of your stress and change the 7mgte intake block and put a 1jz intake and youll have a 1jz.
I don't know where to start on this but I'll let the next few quotes take me to what I want to say next.
Intake block......that's a new part if I've ever heard one.
1. What?
2. No you wouldn't.
Do you know how many swaps me and my pops did like that its easier and faster but it works. Perfect example people used to say a camry block and a mr2 intake wouldnt work one guy proved people wrong he did it and put it in a 1.8 now he runs 7.09. And also his car named is rosado racing.
That's because the Camry block and MR2 block are the same family of engines, the S series. You have the 3S (Celica GT4's, MR2's, Caldina's) and then you have the 5S which is a 2.2L version of the 3S motor, fitted to some Celicas (here in Australia they did), Camry's, and other pov pack Toyota's. The only difference is the head which is a swap over anyway.
A 7M with a JZ style intake IS NOT a JZ!
So what would it be called then wouldnt be a 7m any more.
It would be a 7M still lmfao.
Thankyou for that RJ. 👍
So what about two 13b motors put together?? In the us we call them 26b just like with the supra motor.
Bahahahahaha.....this is more amusing. How is a 26B ANYTHING like a Supra motor?!?! Please tell me, I want to laugh. And sticking two 13B's together DOES NOT make it a 26B. The eccentric shaft is slightly different to a genuine 26B. The Queen St. BMW quad rotor we have in Australia is exactly that, two 13B's together. You want to know what
THEY call it?? A
24B.
The only true 26B's are in the Le Mans 787B's.
The most impressive aspect of the Rosado Racing Corolla is its simplicity. No doubt the Toyota makes a strong case for the power and durability of the 3S-GTE four-cylinder MR2 powerplant. The 1994 vintage 2.0-liter engine has been punched out to 2.2 liters, fitted with a high-revving Ferrea valvetrain and put under pressure via a Turbonetics T66 hairdryer.
Uh, what? How does that...
Ugh, just... Never mind.
I know, our IQ's are just ROCKETING down the scale the more we read his comments.
How that has anything to do with Supras/26B's/whatever, I just don't know.
Thats the power plant with rosado look im just saying in the us thats what we call them. wich is why we are the fastest in the import scene
What do you call them?? Rosado blocks, purple monkey dishwashers...what do you call them in the US?
And a reality check for you, the ONLY reason that US imports are quicker than their counterparts in Oz & NZ is due to the amount of track time and events that are held for them. We as a series get 6 events at most as a Sport Compact series, otherwise we HAVE to compete against the V8's at any of the other ANDRA meets, from the Eastern Nationals to the Winternationals and anything inbetween to get extra track time at events. Also, where's the world's fastest GT-R or 4WD?? Not in the US. It's actually over in NZ where an R32 has the record and we in Australia have the ONLY 7sec Evo in the world....and Buschur racing have 300hp more than the APC Evo.
And to top that bit off, it was Australia's expertise, parts and know how that got American WRX's going fast in the first place a few years back, otherwise your ESX car over there would still be doing 12's.
This is going to be a Youtube feast.
are the shoulder belts of those harnesses fitted to the floor.
