92 supra engine swap
 

im looking at ordering a new 7mge online from a jdm engine supplier, as stated my car is a 1992, will a motor from any previous year work as well?

1jz/2jz is a better choice. direct swap.

get 7m keep it 7m

or get a real motor...

or get the fck out of the mklll section Just kidding! =D

so will any year of a 7mge work? i notice some differences on the intake manifolds... also what would be need to swap in an NA 2jz? trying to keep everything as cheap and simple as possible as a mechanic will be doing the swap. this is my daily driver so i need it done quickly otherwise i would tackle the job:)

go with a 7M if u need the car then u dont need to swap all the wiring harness and ECU. =D

yeah.. that makes sense... so does anyone know if the later 7mge's are different than the earlier one's? the intake manifold on my car looks like it has removable plates whereas others just have the smooth y-shaped piping with no plates.

mines got plates also what year is urs and what year had the plates!

mine is a 1992... im thinking it may be the 90-92(not sure) that have the plate right after the throttle body, right where the the intake manifold pipe splits into 2 pipes...

wtf i got an 87 and it has those... oh shit was the motor replaced? CRE WHERE ARE U? D=

I believe you are talking about the plate that covers the vaccuum operated butterfly in the intake manifold. I thought all n/a years had them. You could put in a 2jz ge but it has to be a rear sump and it is not a total pop it in and go type of thing. My 7mge with intake, header, p&p head and exhaust is by no means that fast. It is an auto though. I've heard the 5spd is more fun. In general the car is just heavy. It still sounds good and gets the looks though as well as everyone tries to race you.

You can use any year of 7mge for your car. Just be shure to use the wiring harness and ecu from your year of vehichle

Well ive seen NA models with some y looking pipe and no plates!

86.5-88 (and some 89's) have different fuel injectors, oil pan/sump, motor mounts, and I'm sure other little things I'm spacing on. 86.5-88's are also balanced externally, whereas 89+'s are balanced internally. If you have a 5 spd, this means you will need a different flywheel if you get an early 7MGE. The 89+'s also were given a lower redline, probably due to the different balancing.

Basically, any 7MGE should drop in. You just may need to swap several components over from your original engine, and make any other adjustments as necessary.

kadinz and wstanek, the OP stated in the first post that they were looking at ordering a 7MGE, not a different engine. Please only post replies that are relative to the OP's question(s).

Okay... I know what the hell you're going on about now... The "Y" pipe is a Supra N/A thing it's part of the modulated intake system which provides torque at lower RPM and load levels. The Cressida (another 7M car) did not have this system and uses a simpler intake system which looks very much like the 7M-GTE's intake setup.

There are two different models of "Y" pipe too... The JDM "Y" pipe does not have the small plate that sits on top of the fork that the North American models do, this is because that small plate (held on with 4 bolts) is an access used in the machining and servicing of the EGR port. The GE has a MUCH more efficient and evenly distributed EGR system than the Cressida and GTE, BTW.

Just pull ur motor and rebuild it with better pistons and rods then swaping it out for a motor that is used

I second this, if it is not horribly damaged. It is generally not recommended to put a JDM engine (or any used engine) in your car without a rebuild. You do not know how the used engine was ran or if there were any previous problems with it, so it is a substantial gamble to just "drop it in".

I'll third. put in what ever you like, but rebuild it.

ok.. so it looks like i just keep my engine and get the parts replaced instead of replacing the engine.. thanks for quick response everyone!

YEAH just build her back up!

I was thinking about swaping my ge out for a gte or rebuild with stronger pistons and rods and put a turbo on later with the turbo piston heads Also

yeah i will eventually turbo my 7M-GE too needs rod bearings now but it will eventually be done!
