[Supras] 7M-GTE Replacement Options

[Ed Di Cristofaro]

Hi Everyone,

         It's probably been a couple of years since I've posted, but the 91
Turbo that I've driven daily for the past 9 years has finally blown the head
gasket at 200,207 miles.  Factory original engine and HG too, so if I'm a
candidate for most miles on the original HG, let me know :)

         Anyway, the resale value isn't too much on these cars.  It has
immaculate paint, and an above-average interior for a 17 year old car (a
couple of tears in the leather, but nothing big, and nothing that can't be
reasonably repaired).  I'm thinking I might dump in another engine and keep
driving it, but I'm not sure what my options are these days.  Is a new
engine still available?  Is there something better than an imported, origin-
and care-unknown, used replacement?  If I'm going to keep going with this
car, I'd like to do it right, within reason.  What are my options for an
engine?  Keep in mind, everything under the hood except radiator, exhaust,
and rubber is original, so replacing a lot of that might not be a bad idea
if it can be done reasonably.

         You can still read the words "Normal" and "Sport" on my TEMS
switches, so help me out :)

Regards,

        Ed
