parts needed for 7mgte swap

tone loc · 08-05-2006, 04:13 AM

Hello i have a 87 n/a automatic. I want to swap to a turbo 5 spd. I found this list on supracharged.com (http://www.supracharged.com/4runner/...partslist.html) and i was wondering if this was a good part list to look off and for the ecu does it have to be same year/engine/transmission to be able to have the engine work properly with the trans. If you think that there should be a couple parts added to the list or if i dont need a couple of the parts please let me know.(this guide is for swaping the engine only)Thanks

can you put some parts on a 7mgte motor from a 7mge?

Supra2NR · 08-05-2006, 08:47 PM

why tho?, but maybe sum of the internals are the same and can be used for both engines , ask around sum more

difference in engines: cams, pistons(compression), gte has oil squirters, obviously turbo, ic, and exhaust manifold, the ge has a y from tb to intake manifold, and # of knock sensors, ge has one gte has two... just learned that yesterday

to go from ge to gte you need most of the above
