Do you need to buy a Whole new engine?
If so stop buy Advanced Auto Parts, Or Auto Zone they sell rebuilt ones for 3k or you can get a used low milage one for like 1200 and i think you get a core charge so all you have to do is plop it in the hole you call a engine bay shouldnt cost to much to install... but it looks like your doing all the work so you should be good. Plus lowmilage means you can give it more boost without blowing it as easy

Ok,
I have been watching your posts ever since you started this crap. And I’m sick of it. I was completely honest with you about the car. You even looked at the turbo yourself and saw that it had minimum shaft play and spun freely while it was still off the car. You didn’t do anything to make the car break down? Hmmm, I seem to remember another post on the forums here that said you were doing 80 on the expressway the same night you bought it. I understand you were excited about getting it but I in no way intended or knew that the car was going to break down on you. I drove the car home from Missouri in March and even though the guy that I bought it from said it was in tip top running condition it had no brakes and shit tires that were unbalanced and were worn so thin they had the steel belting showing through on them amongst other problems such as some of the lights not working, but you said that was no big deal because you had another supra at home that you could pull parts from. I didn’t call him bitching because I signed a bill of sale that said As is With NO Warranty on it. There was nothing that I could do except for fix the car and move on. I had no idea that there was a loose or missing engine mount bolt either, if there was I would have told you. You also lied about the parts that were put into it. Yeah I saw that post too. The bottom line is you signed a bill of sale that stated As is With NO Warranty. Which means you blowing the car up or doing anything else to it is not my responsibility as soon as you signed that paper. I told you that I had driven it before you got there and it was fine. The car wasn’t throwing the check engine light or anything. I even had it running for like 3 hours that day bleeding out the cooling system and nothing. When you picked it up what did I tell you? I said take it easy on the car and make sure you keep checking the fluids and everything. What did you do? You took it on the expressway at 80 miles an hour which is over the posted speed limit and probably boosted the car too much and blew the new seals on it too. This is the last time you are going to hear from me. Do not call me, and do not come to my house. If you do you will be trespassing and the authorities will be called. If anything happens to my house or my cars you will be the first one the police come to visit. Let’s not forget that I have your address to, I had you write it on the bill of sale remember. I gave you everything I had for the car except for an extra front cover, block, head and cam covers. That included the repair book that I had because I didn’t need it anymore not because I thought you would be using it soon. I’m sorry that this had to happen this way but you leave me no choice. The fact of the matter is you messed the car up now you have to fix it. I told you to take it easy on the car and you ignored me. So this is what you get for that. Have a nice life!!! |

He does have a good point. Definatley not a good idea to do that to a car you just bought. lol. But yeah if you buy a used car from anyone even if they do lie, its all your fault if it breaks down. It happens to us all. I boughgt my car and it blew the HG not 2 weeks later, and i didnt complain that i got robbed, I just started to fix it.

The way i look at it is ya i need a new engine or a car hmmm which one cost more the engine or the car maybe the time fighting with the guy i bought it from for some money back... in the long run the new engine will probly last longer anyway its an old car, its going to happen some just happen sooner then others, but the car should have been able to handle 80mph on the expressway that isnt all that much i do that much driving back and forth to work
