buy a 6m engine. and slap a 7m turbo setup on it....and you can run 13's cheaper and more simple. and dont have to replace the head gasket every day...

 

you could get keep the 5MGE and drop in a 7MGTE crank and match the reciprocating assembly. Then put on the 7MGTE induction system (turbo) and tune it w/ an AFC on the Dyno... Theres a guy around the 'burg w/ this car. I think his name is Brian, hes got a white MK2, beat lookin, and has small "Race Related" stickers on the rear quarter windows.

MK2 w/ a 7MGTE swap is a very potent car. Despite the fact its a Solid rear end w/ 4 lug hubs... it can be made to perform... probably better than the MK3, mod for mod... considering that the MK3 is a turd. the only weak spot on that setup would then be the W58 tranny... just swap in the R154 and youll be good.

 

Well, to save you some time from reading my other post:

Yes, there is potential.

 

If I remember from my supra days, the 7m-gte will drop in the mkII and will bolt right up to the auto tranny in the mkII provided the swapee and the engine are both autos. Then again, you'd force yourself into a boring way to transport yourself.

If the 7M-GTE will fit, won't then the 1JZ or 2JZ also fit? Of course it would be more expensive, and the wiring/computer stuff would get difficult. Would be preddy darn fast and a serious sleeper.
