thinking of rebuilding 7M-GE
 

should i rebuild my 7M-GE because i just bought my1987 supra and the guy i got it from said it had 70xxx on the rebuild but the more i drive the car the less i think it has 70xxx miles


so my question is would it be worth it to
1. rebuild my 7m-ge
2. find a replacement 7m-ge
3. or go 7m-gte

please dont say 2jz or 1jz that is going to be out of my price range

It really depends on what you want in the end. If you think that at some point you want a turbo, I'd recommend you buy a GTE, rebuild it and collect all the additional parts needed for a complete conversion; In the meantime you may continue driving around with the GE.

If you're satisfied with the GE then go ahead and rebuild.... only if you must though. Why do you think it needs to be rebuilt?

As for the 70K mi... Well, you'd be amazed what people can do to a car in just 5K. There's also the possibility it was a JDM engine which sat on a rainy pier for 6 months (I am NOT a fan of JDM.... especially when people preach that you just buy it and drop it in blindly). There's also the possibility that whatever issues you're having are related to something which wasn't related to the engine swap; Electrical components for example.




EDIT: Didn't realise who posted this thread. I think you should find out where the problem lies with your current system regardless of what you decide to do down the road... Unless you have another vehicle to drive on a daily basis.

Mainly because im thinking if im gonna put alot of money into my supra might as well start off with a 0 mile moter...and I cant seem to find any 7mgte moters out near me and I dontt want to buy from ebay
