sorry man but i gotta call you out.... if you think the 1g-gte is a better motor then the 7m in ANY aspect you are retarded.... its the pansiest motor EVER put into a supra chassis. not to mention parts for it stateside are rare as ANYTHING since it never came here...have fun when something breaks.
on top of that for the 7m reliability issue...i dont care what anyone says...the 7m is perfectly reliable when its taken care of...the problem is kids buy the car and instead of fixing it up...they try to mod it out on a 150k mile + ragged out beaten up engine.... of course things are gonna break.....
the ONLY flaw with the 7m was the hg torque from factory but thats a weekend job to fix for an average user...so big freaking deal.
i rebuilt the engine in my car and its been problem free (aside from shit that i caused MYSELF) for the past two years and i drive the shit out of it....and it made a trip from here to TX and back with ZERO problems......
funny how when you do something right and take care of it the 7m is all of a sudden a reliable engine
