pulled my engine
 

not even two weeks
not even one good cruise
not even one good race
after i bought the car
and the engine is out already

i got jackd by the guy that i bought the car from
this is probly one of the flaws of this car
if anybody buys em, they luve em so much, that u instantly know that sumthing is wrong with, if theyre selling em
but i chose to trust pple, big mistake

1)metal headgasket job wasnt done right, so he was better off jus giving me an engine with a blown headgasket
2)blown turbo, no shaftplay, oil on my pipings
3)and this is what pissed me the most, one of the nuts for the engine mount wasnt even there
wtf if the engine dropped while i was driving?

a very depressing view

ps, anybody selling a working ct26 turbo for cheap?
jus pm me $150 - $200
(chicago only)

Why get a used one do you really want to trust someone again? buy an upgraded one or just buy a rebuilt one for 550 bucks

well. im gonna bring it to my shop first this time

cuz this time i got a shop where they actually work on mk3's
so i got more help this time

I dont think there is a supra shop around here anywere but the shop i take my car to swears up and down that they worked on some of the cars that went to nopi this year but so far i havnt had any real problems with them

its hard finding a trustworthy shop
cuz its either u go to a old-experience shop
which will jus take advantage of u , and jack up prices

or u got to a new-unexperienced shop
and you jus get screwed left and right

but, i like the shop that i got right now

oh, one question did the cressida came with the 7mgte engine
cuz they have one in there

cressida came with the 7m-ge. Oil in your intercooler pipes could be from you pcv system. Its very common.

89+ cressidas
 

yes if im not mistaken the 89+ cressidas came with the 7mge.

o alright then
but it has a 7mgte
but if it came with the ge, it wont be so hard to do a conversion then

that sucks and he made you wait a couple days right? that's some shady work.

dude , i waited two weeks for the car to get ready

and now he's acting like a bitch by not picking up my calls

i guess im gonna have to drop by his house some time this week
