This was supposed to be a basic rebuild of a 7mge engine, but the friend that i had bought it from was inexperienced with engine removal and apparently did an extreme teardown of almost everything in the engine compartment. Nuts and bolts scattered amongst each other with no particular order at all. The rebuild was a little bit of a challenge, to say the least. I purchased the car for 800, with the blown-motor and new engine awaiting rebuild. It only has 85k miles overall so it's in pretty good shape. I have set my page up so that you can view the progress. Keep in mind that I am only 18 and this is my first Fuel Injected vehicle to work on. I had to research vacumn line routing for what seemed like weeks before I was certain they were correct. This build has been quite an experience and I plan to get an 89 turbo in the future. I'm Hooked.

It was originally bought for $400 and this was what happened on the ride home from the sellers residence

I don't know why there is purple on the car. there were several "holders" before me. I still cannot find the true previous owner.

Wow! Good work with the engine! Supra motors aren't really the easiest engines to work on. Mad props for your craftsmanship!
