Ha, I have messed with turbo and twin turbo a bit on newer cars but my back round is more of superchargers. What is the positive side of having 7mgte, because it already have the turbo? And is that block for the 7mgte considered a long block? And Green That link was nuts lol not even a page but all info no bullshit. And according to the man the oil, bets seals have all been replaced but I did trailer it back to the house, just in case. But I may be sticking to an N/A not sure yet ill do some digging around online and have a few of my buddies in Japan look for some parts and so on. But thank u again for all of the help, deff the place for me, hope every one have a great weekend, I know I will! Pulling the ENG and TRAN’s out today!

If it sat that long and was just periodically turned on and then back off there could be a significant amount of damage from condensation: Pitted cylinder walls and eroded bearings.... just something to keep in mind. Was this still driven on weekends or just sitting in a garage for 5 years? At any rate, if you've got experience with rebuilding and plan on doing so it's no big deal.

Rubber HG? WTF are you talking about? Where on Earth did you hear of rubber head gaskets??? Your choices are: composite (like the stock one; single layer of metal as a substrate for compressed graphite), copper (generally only used in racing applications) and multi layer steel (MLS generally what is being referred to as a "metal HG"). MLS, steel shims and even some copper HGs vome with a VERY thin viton coating to act as a sealant, but this doesn't justify the title of "rubber HG".
