New engine

listrats · 05-04-2010, 04:17 PM

I have the 1988 turbo supra targa roof and all and the engine has just been causing to many problems. It doesnt even start anymore. Is there a place where I can find a new or refurbished engine but one that is made for the Supra preferably not aftermarket. Is the next generation supra (1993-98) engines compatible with the '88 one? like could i take one out of a newer supra put it in mine and itll work just fine? and where would i be able to find one that fits my needs. Thank you very much

There are a few options but rebuilding your 7mgte is probably the easiest and least expensive if you do it yourself. Yes the 1jz and 2jz will work. The 1jz is said to be much easier and less expensive than the 2jz though. The main thing is that if you reabuild you current motor you will know what is in it and the 7mgte is still a very good motor. If you seach you can find all the the info you need.
