As my fellow Yotatechie Brothers above stated, ...... and Rob Schneider so eloquently put it, .............."YOU CAN DOOOOO ITTTTTTTTTT!" lol. Yeah, that's obvious, you clearly can do it..... Question is, .... WILL YOU? (<<< note the subtle egging on of fellow yotatechie, there, careful not to come off as mocking, yet GENTLY nudging him to "GET TURBO'N"!!! ) hahahaha.

Seriously, I had a Cressida with a 7MGE in it, 200K it FINALLY blew the T-belt, .......Did the HG at that time due to hearing "it's about to go, TRUST ME, these are notorious... at least tighten the Head Bolts".... Then drove it to 349K and my ex-wife took it in the divorce ..... And from what I know, she STILL, TO THIS DAY, drives that thing!

LOVED the power that motor had, SUCH a sleeper, ...and my buddy's tweaked and built 7MGTE SUPRA??????? HOLY COW! Yes, his was gutted of back seats, and MORE, ...but seriously, it was SO FAST!

Sorry, I'm sure you know all this.... just talking out loud, and hoping you'll do it, .... UNLESS you find another trans FOR THAT LIL BEAST! Then, hmmmm, I might have a hard time yoinking the heart out of it. They're getting more and more rare.
