Honestly if you don't have any experience working on the 7M and no experience doing motor swaps then I think it's best if you just fix up your car a little bit make it clean sell it and buy a turbo supra because if not you are heading down a long, expensive hair pulling road.

My supra was a none turbo supra and now it has a 7MGTE JDM engine installed and you have to switch EVERYTHING from the turbo to the non turbo, including the wire harness, drive shaft, and if you want half way decent gas mileage I would swap the rear end also, plus you already seen you have to get a R154 transmission......Then when you start installing everything you realize how many odds and ends your missing I/C piping, sensor's, vacuum hoses, and seriously the list goes on and on...You wouldn't believe how expensive this can get

So seriously if you have no experience doing this or can't afford to pay someone else to do it, don't do it!!! lol That's just my opinion.
