AKIRE 808 heck yea man!! Its very exciting, cant wait to be driving her by maybe feb or march

Thank you sir

BjornFSE thanks man

Shwalker07 thats sick dude!! The only thing i havent done is cams. And the 264s are the ones i would like to do aswell since you dont have to upgrade valvetrain. Do you happen to have a video of her idling??! And im also gonna be running ecu master, but isnt it plug and play? Why do you need to rewire your harness?

Those 264 cams made a very nice difference compared to stock and pull way harder from about 3k rpms. Still have to change a few valve shims as some have a higher clearance than the BC spec. Have you heard of running comp 975-12 valve springs? They are from a Chevy v8 but drop right in the 7m and help with valve float at higher boost. Its funny that it's for a v8 but they sell them in 12 packs at summit racing for around $30 because I think so many 7m guys ask for them. Right now I am still on the oem ecu and electronics but the ecu masters kit i bought from DriftMotion is a plug-n-play kit that came with the pigtail for my 87. For me I wanted to freshen up the OEM engine harness with new wiring/connectors, get rid of as many sensors/wiring I do not need, add some sensors such as the e85 content sensor/air intake temp and wire it up for sequential fuel injection. By the time I do all this the plug-n-play adapter is unfortunately almost useless. I made a wiring chart of the pigtail using the OEM ecu pins to the pins of the ecu masters standalone so when I make the new harness they will go to the right pins. What is also nice is the ecu masters standalone comes with 2 new connectors and all the pins you need to make a harness yourself. If I was to do it again I would of just bought the standalone without the pigtail. I'll upload a video on my channel sometime soon before I pull the engine wiring harness.

Shwalker07 dang dude! I think your build is a bit more intense then mine! But i would also love to follow your process man, so if you make videos id love to see. As far as for me this car was elderly owned so all my plugs and pins are in really good condition. Also my main goal is to get 450-550 on pump gas (91) which i know its possible. That way when Supras In Vegas or Toyota Fest in california or any other major show id love to cruise there and not worry about fuel you know. Hats my goal

Shwalker07 ohhh and no man i havent herd of those valve springs that is pretty crazy though. My brake setup ill be using Mercedes brembo calipers off a 90s benz and i believe 370z rotors if i remember correct lol its a very cheap upgrade and they are huge brembos 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Nice man, well you definitely earned a new subscriber and can wait for your next update on your build. I am going to publish my whole build with all my pictures on SupraMania and Supraforums very soon if you are ever over there. For now though I have to catch up on some of your older videos.

Lee Bowerman too late.. shes all complete 😬

That's a spun bearing waiting to happen

LiveToGame bearings dont ever stay dry.. they do lubricate with oil??

we can not bleave you all did that wow i pull the pan n clean that no matter what befer i go 7 psi or lance it at all

overbuilt automotive im sorry brotha but i couldnt understand your message??

Initial JDM thank you man! Im not sure if you check out the next video yet but i made the head assembly video the same

LFATV Yea, I check it already right after I watched your other video lol. keep it up! Love the build though

Initial JDM haha thanks man 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Oveida Sinclair thank you man

Steven Marzullo engine is still very healthy, although i never really pushed too much power through her. She was last about 400hp new setup will be alot higher

@@-LFATV That's good. Clearly greasing both sides of the bearings didn't give you any problems. I've had 4 MK3 Supras over the year's and I'm starting to get that itch again.

Steven Marzullo no sir i mean if you think about it oil makes it way through them through the galleys anyway so the grease in our opinion helps them stay lubed during initial start up.. thats the theory

chris hansen im loving the compression ratio so far, havent gotten it tuned so wel see later for best results. And yes i used eagle rods

@@-LFATV super cool, what injectors are you running?

marsocreaper i think you meant life... lol

Sansui Mcpeters everything was done properly 🙌🏼

With forged piston and rods you are well within spec and weights are done in the factory. You can take one step further and have the entire rotating assembly balanced but it's a waste on a mild build so this will be better than stock and acceptable by any builder of 7m's

Billy Beane 🙌🏼 Very Knowledgeable! But yes, Mr.Gallardo ( builder ) thought the same and didnt have any worries when it came down to balancing

Actually, if you are talking about assembling an engine correctly, you need to balance each piston and connecting rod seperately, usually to .1 grams is sufficient. The entire rotating assembly must then be balanced, on any build, if you want the engine to last as long as OEM. It doesnt cost much, and saves main bearings. Every single set of piston rings I've ever installed has had to be filed to the proper gap.

MRC Tuned definitely! I was asked on FB aswell if the rings were properly gapped and pistons were balanced. But we dis follow spec as to them being forged pistons, there is a slight difference from the gap on the cast pistons but we got them dialed down. She is currently running beautifully

Don't know if this could still be relevant, but I'd say around 4000 to 5000+ for a performance build and 3000 to 4000 for a basic rebuild

Arz performance

tim moua no bro not on the rod bolts

Its pretty normal, i would suggest taking it to a good local machine shop and they would determine if it needs any treatment other then a simple polish, mine was fine so all they did was a quick polish and it was good to go

@@-LFATV Cheers man 👍great vids btw

hansen21martin thank you

its my oem 6m crank

Andre Davis i have aftermarket forged rods

@@-LFATV ok so no oversize bearings for the crank

Im doing a build on my 7mge T as well if you have any pointers or anything I should do for you let me know

Andre Davis no sir no over sized bearings, i would recommend and aftermarket oil pickup line, new oil pump thats shimmed, metal head gasket with arp equipment. Those to start off with

@@-LFATV thank you

overbuilt automotive mega squirt right

lockjawjak well on initial start up there will be no oil on them whatsoever, so the lubricant put on them is for the first start up. But then again everyone does it different

i make a oil pressurized primer i hook in to the oil tap on block the most elcheapo would be a bug sprayer with oil in it used as a oil gallery primer

You shouldn't and don't need to lube between the bearring and block or caps. They don't turn unless they are failing. You use a proper assembly lube (not white grease as it cakes up think of a chapstick consisenty) only on the bearring surface on the crank side. A proper assembly lube is cheap compared to a set of bearring rods or crankshaft. Yes I'm a engine builder from motorcycles to heavy diesel to tug boat diesels as well as performance including my son's Supra 7mgte and 2 non turbo. Also built my turbo first gen neon.

Billy Beane Got it.. well its been couple months since this video and engine is running perfectly 😀

haha this is the comment I was looking for! Heavy line Diesel mechanic here and the answer is no your not. Assembly lube on the the wear face only. LFATV ~ you get lucky sometimes thats all there is to it. No hate just education. Forged rods aren't better btw.

David Phillips i forgot what clevite bearings i used bro but im still on stock power because im breakin the engine in still

@@-LFATV sweet as was just wounding cause looking for ones to use in mine

Floyd Perkins Jr i still have her... shes just been neglected lately 😢

Joseph Manna lube is for initial start, u dont think oil goes there either?? we have been doing that for yeaarrrsss never had a problem but thanks for looking out

Gotcha, dont think im not taking your advice im just saying that we have been doing it for years on the 7M, might not have any benefit on the bottom side but we always have done it.

Still running strong 💪🏼😎

Juan Camaney shes been running great 🤷🏻‍♂️ was for initials start up.. people think that remains there through the engines life time

@@-LFATV That's cool man .....But now everyone knows to put on a condom first and then put on KY jelly... Anyway great video , good job .

Juan Camaney im not putting a gun to anybodies head saying this is the way to do it, everyone online has the correct way to go about things. Im simply recording the process in which i took on my build. And thank you for watching.

@@-LFATV You're missing the whole point .... I'm not trying to put you down . I just gave everyone a tip ...You can at least say thanks for the tip

Juan Camaney i appreciate your condom reference, i always tell folks that i appreciate the feedback. Im simply replying and saying that there has been zero issues to us doing that. Especially my buddy that built my engine, has been doing it for yearrsss

Mute it

@@-LFATV I love your commentary, I like to listen to you but this constant drum beat driving me crazy.

@@transformer889 lol very old video, luckily i dont add music like that anynore

@@-LFATVThanks, I am also an MKIII ower, I really like your Supra, and I follow your build, I wish you good luck.

@@transformer889 thank you very much sir
