You could buy a front clip which means you get the transmission and everything you need for the swap i find there a little pricy i found them for $2600 Us (not shipped) and then how ever much the shop charges for labor if your having a shop do it.

And im just getting a staight swap out im change my engine casue this one is blowing smoke and the shop is going to charge me 700 just to swap the motors out, so sence there is wireing involded and finding place to mount intercoolers and such you looking at a nice big amount of change.

dude why???????? do you realize the cost you're getting into? you'll spend minimum $10000 for the engine, transmission, mods, and labor. maybe you have the money to spend i sure don't! in any case, it's still what i consider a waste of money and time. besides, you will find more mods for the 7M. the 7M engine is an awesome power plant. the only problem is the head gasket. since the report of problematic head gaskets, the engine has been stereotyped as not very good. do your research. you will not find any legitimate site stating problems with the engine other than the gasket. after installing a MHG the stock internals can handle at least 500hp. i ought to know, my only internals are AEM gears, HKS MHG, and ARP studs. she runs great, and never ever has an over heating problem. i blow away tuner mods "left & right", and thats almost 20 years old. others that are more heavily modified might be a challenge but if i modify my bottom end, i guarantee there won't be too many i can't beat. i entered my car in nopi nationals 2 weeks ago, and while i didn't place, my ride received a lot of attention. why? because they're becoming rare especially in good condition. i drove home 300 miles at 90-100mph. again no problems. i'm sick and tired of mk4 owners telling me to do a swap. i guarantee my car will hold it's own against mk4s once my bottom end is complete. heck my car runs great now with only 550cc injectors. it's funny, one always hears how mk4s need 1000 or more injectors to make 800hp, and i can do 500hp with 550s. check-out my mods on tunerfriends.com same username. also, checkout suprasport.com, suprastore.com, and mvpmotorsports.com. these are just 3 out several sites with mods for mk3s. i hope i've saved you some cash unless again you're determined, and money is no object. my build cost me $30,000. the car cost me $5000, and labor about $8000 because of my physical challenge, i'm unable to do the work.

A 1j swap won't cost 10k. 500hp is weak.

Smile 7MGE timing

Hi there, I am new to this forum and I am curently rebuilding my 7M GE because of, you guessed it, a blown head gasket.
I have the engine back together but after searching for many hours on the net for a workshop manual without any luck, I don't know how to set up the timing so I can put the new timing belt on.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
It is a standard motor that has done almost 240,000 kilometers.
Thanks in advance,

Ian.

I think a 1jz swap is more than worth it and if you're smart it won't cost you 10k.

Wink It's a secret

Bump! thx !  Her chores were never-ending. Sewing clothes for her family on the old Singer treadle machine, cooking meals and baking bread, planting and tending a vegetable garden, milking the goats and scrubbing soiled clothes on a washboard. But she was happy. Her family and their well-being were her highest priority.  Every day after chores and school, Reuben scoured the town, collecting the hessian nail bags. On the day the two-room school closed for the summer, no student was more delighted than Reuben. Now he would have more time for his mission.  All summer long, despite chores at home weeding and watering the garden, cutting wood and fetching water—Reuben kept to his secret task.  Then all too soon the garden was harvested, the vegetables canned and stored, and the school reopened. Soon the leaves fell and the winds blew cold and gusty from the bay. Reuben wandered the streets, diligently searching for his hessian treasures.  Often he was cold, tired and hungry, but the thought of the object in the shop window sustained him. Sometimes his mother would ask: “Reuben, where were you? We were waiting for you to have dinner.”  “Playing, Mum. Sorry.”  Dora would look at his face and shake her head. Boys.  Finally spring burst into glorious green and Reuben's spirits erupted. The time had come! He ran into the barn, climbed to the hayloft and uncovered the tin can. He poured the coins out and began to count.  Then he counted again. He needed 20 cents more. Could there be any sacks left any where in town? He had to find four and sell them before the day ended.  Reuben ran down Water Street.  The shadows were lengthening when Reuben arrived at the factory. The sack buyer was about to lock up.  “Mister! Please don't close up yet.”  The man turned and saw Reuben, dirty and sweat stained.  “Come back tomorrow, boy.”  “Please, Mister. I have to sell the sacks now—please.”The man heard a tremor in Reuben's voice and could tell he was close to tears.  “Why do you need this money so badly?”  “It's a secret.”  The man took the sacks, reached into his pocket and put four coins in Reuben's hand. Reuben murmured a thank you and ran home.  Then, clutching the tin can, he headed for the shop.  “I have the money,” he solemnly told the owner.  The man went to the window and retrieved Reuben's treasure.Come and buy wow gold, Warhammer gold, wow gold, wow power leveling, Warhammer power leveling web .
