[@akirony]

Man I love that digital cluster

[@dukevera4216]

yeah what even is it?

[@sterling2759]

Bro that turbo flutter at the end is so satisfying lmao

[@mikes6970]

Had same car . Hp etc ... used a twin skin kevlar clutch never had a problem .. plus my computer was set up with launch control , and methonol injection and 5 boost settings , lowest setting 300hp , top seting 550+hp ... ans 3setting inbetween ... metsl gaskets , stugdded down , p/polished head , forged pistons , fuel pressure reg etc .. 980 injectors .. was set for bigger turbo but didnt get around to upgrade .. had a massive garrett for it ... nicest toy had .. went where you pointed it ... had 4litre quad cam lexus coupes .. 2.5 twin turbo lexus coupes .. the 430 coupe .. now the gs 460 .. end yr get the 5litre model .. but the 7mgte taught me heaps about building engines and do miss having to sell it (dam mrs ) but still keep a nice driver for meself .. the gs 460 is nice .. uptuned it for a $1k to the lS 390 hp ... gs is 342 hp detuned and dif manifold .. uptune was only a $1k for the extra 40+ hp ... well worth it ..

I love my Supra mo3 with the digital dash

Do you feel the 7mgte is worth the hassle that comes with it? I'm in the USA and am looking at taking my MK3 7mge into a better performer. I'm torn between the 7mgte, 1jzgte, or going 1uzfe. They all seem to have their own advantages, and disadvantages, however I think the 7mgte get shit on more then it should be. If you pull one out of junker, have the block and head machined, use the proper gaskets and bolts: You will have a 300hp car. Upgrade to BPU and you have a 360-370hp. That's 400hp at the crank with maybe 4-5k spend on the whole transplant. What are your thoughts?

[@YakuzaJZ]

TheSpartacusiv to be honest you'll probably have to spend more to get the 7M to a good place. It wouldn't be the most cost effective build as JZs just have more parts avail etc But I wanted something different and that's why I stuck with it. Lol funny that the original motor is 'different'

[@goobygoob9312]

Am I the only one that thinks the 7M kind of sounds like a JZ?

[@YakuzaJZ]

Gooby Goob sounds better than JZ :)

[@TheWaffles123456]

Gooby Goob well it's a 3l inline 6 like the 2jz so I guess so

[@hasty-carnaage1518]

@@TheWaffles123456 more like.... Well it was the predecessor to the JZ family. So..... But yes Gooby, the notes easily go 7m then the 1jz then the 2jz, 2j is nice just has such a bland note because you hear them so often, are still amazing gorgeous sounding and running motors but it doesnt change its the most stale of the family, big HP is why people love it so much. of course that is just my opinion but its unecessary for me to have to say that,

[@fourocker]

7Mgte is 2JZgte's dad yelling at him to try harder, be better, be stronger, go harder and do more with your life.....I love the 7Mgte as I have one and think it's such a smooth and torquey engine, perfect for the GT car that the A70 Supra is.

i want an mk3 so badly

what cluster dash setup is that?? looks sick! where did you get it?

Bryan Pizano it's factory JDM man :)

[@bryanpizano1436]

Ohh alright thanks man! love the videos by the way that's a clean Mk3!

[@christiangordon6198]

You ran up to 20psi u tuned or did you get a piggyback or something somewhere along the line? I’m building my car similar to yours and it’s really amazing if u got 400+hp on the factory ecu

[@josefkocag3135]

Please i need help! I want to drive the lexriemer setup! Waht i changed is boost to 0.9 Bar and changed fuel presure. I drive a hks downnpipe with hks catback.I drive the lexus housing with the stock supra maf sensor! I take the screw complete out from the housing because in the Internet is writen like that! Yet i have a hole and the car drive like 90 hp. Musst i closing the housing without screw or put the screw again? How can my car run normal again

[@dukevera4216]

nice wheelsman! What's the fitment and offset? The car is looking great.

[@davidharris6699]

i had the super computer in my 87 but it was not set up like that

[@whocares7144]

what wheels are those? badass car!!!

[@abramlucas1086]

AWESOME!!!!!!

[@クルー喧嘩者]

How do you make the 7MGTE reliable? Just switch head bolts and nuts with arp and oem headgasket and torque to the right specs or you need to do more?

[@YakuzaJZ]

クルー喧嘩者 depends on the power goals man. For ~350hp give or take, you can probably get away with oem headgasket and studs. Any higher and you’d want to at least deck the head and block and go MHG

[@angelokarantonis7509]

Oil pump needs to be modified. Get a hose with no banjo for the pump, Zulu mod, good turbo and gate, 1000cc injectors bigger fuel pump new lines too. Also a intake manifold and a intercooler with oil coolers box and motor. A few hours and some tools 🛠. Well maybe a 100 hours at least and heaps of tools you probably won’t have.

[@angelokarantonis7509]

Your crank should be forged so you don’t need to touch that. But pistons and rods won’t hurt.

[@pablosupra4097]

Pretty supra

[@abramlucas1086]

NICE!!!!!!

Your car is fucking goals. Like what the fuck, I want to copy it so bad.

[@navin9315]

YakuzaJZ are you still active sir?

[@airone2580]

Thanks for your video👍👍👍. For ~350hp can I keep stock internal ?( pistons, rods..) just metal head gazket and bolt enough Can I keep stock ecu with s-afc apexi? For afr .. Thank you nice car man 🤙

[@YakuzaJZ]

airone2580 yeah man stock internals all good for 350hp. Just need a good head gasket and arp bolts or studs. Stock ecu and safc is ok but make sure it’s not running lean or detonating at peak torque etc. I would suggest a proper dyno tune with the safc :)

[@airone2580]

@@YakuzaJZ thanks man for your fast answer and your advise👍. When you say proper dyno tune , I need an other ecu adjustable? Or it s just to check peak torque air ratio? And for ct26 how you adjust boost? With flat washer or do you have another technic? 16 psi for dayly drive is not to much for the motor? Hope you understand my english language(I m french).🤙😉

[@YakuzaJZ]

airone2580 yeah proper dyno tune as in they can check air fuel ratio and make sure it’s not detonating. They can also do a basic tune with the stock ecu and Apexi Safc. I would recommend you purchase a standalone ecu if possible. For boost control you can use washers but I would recommend you buy a boost controller (manual or electronic is fine). You will find on stock ecu you will reach stock boost/fuel cut around 12-13psi. So you will need to trick the ecu to get past this. Google “Lexus AFM and 550cc mod” 😁

[@airone2580]

@@YakuzaJZ lexus afm and 550cc trick the fuel cut? Divorced and 3" exhaust are necessary for this setup? Or just to remove catalyser do the job.. What you advice me about turbo, t57 or kinugawa upgrade or ...? Thanks man🤙

[@YakuzaJZ]

airone2580 yep 550 injectors and lex AFM will trick the ecu to let you go above the normal fuel cut. I would recommend a proper downpipe and sports cat or sports cat. Stock downpipe is shit. Either a 57 trim ct26 or kinugawa 60-1 would be fine for your power goals.

[@Takumichellod]

Hey, any recommendations to make a 7M-GTE reliable ? I'm about to trade my ST185 for a mk3 Supra and I want to hear about an actual owner uhuh x)

[@YakuzaJZ]

depends what your goals are at the end of the day! but a reasonable power like 400hp can be had with machined block and head plus a metal head gasket. Then a bolt on turbo like 57 trim ct26 and some fuel mods :)

[@bobbygenius]

YakuzaJZ hey I have a fully built motor and was wondering what turbo would big good for around 500whp?

[@jjwatt7827]

Any idea if that cluster is possible to swap into a non JDM version of the vehicle?

[@YakuzaJZ]

jj watt I think it is possible with a bit of work, although harder again as I'm not sure the digidash came in left hand drive

[@tbomb887]

there is a thread on SupraMania detailing this. It is a very involved process but possible.

[@izaaka70]

this has given me alot more faith in the 7m, i would love one of these on my p's and somehow in nsw u can have a 7mgte supra but not the 7mgte z20 soarer? i smell a loop hole and im taking advantage of it, just a nice manual supra with a non blown 7mgte such as yours is very hard to come by. Most are autos, i dont have a problem with doing a conversion tho, brings me to my next question. Are you running a W58 or an R154? And should i go the steel head gasket route? Only looking for about 350whp reliably, very much like how your car used to be. Sick car mate, keep making more vids :)

[@YakuzaJZ]

Izimujack thanks man. Mine has the r154 from factory. A normal headgasket with ARP studs can hold 350hp. If you want to go the metal HG route I would very strongly recommended that you get the head and block decked by a machine shop.

[@lockjawjak]

You know me bro I'll be fine lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hi , how are you man? I have mk3 with stock engine stock turbo. Spec- radiator- intercooler- piping- kn- boost controler- exhaust hand made . And I have my boost around 11psi and sometimes 13psi. But I don t boost the pression. It is normal ? With my configuration. Do you think the stock écu do the job with this boost? ( don t have afr) Thank you

[@YakuzaJZ]

airone2580 sorry man I’m not sure what you are saying? do you mean it won’t reach 11psi?

[@YakuzaJZ]

airone2580 yes 11psi should be fine. It may hit fuel/boost cut occasionally (usually 12-14psi is fuel cut). The ECU has safety parameters in place so it won’t go over

[@airone2580]
