Cyber-punk Forums Junkie Location: Brisbane, QLD Registered: February 2003	What to do about dead supra? Wed, 09 April 2003 07:21 Well having somone look at her tomorrow to try and find out what is most likely the problem. But as ALOT of people have suggested to me(not just on this forum) it sounds like a buggered big end bearing and or thrown a rod. Now i've had a quote of about $2700(best i could get so far) to fix whats wrong(assuming its big end bearing) OR a "new" 5M-GE...plus as a bonus a W57 trans(got a 4sp auto atm) for nearly half of the mechanics quote to fix the original 5M-E(including engine, fitted etc....in other words mates rates ) The new 5M-GE has about 177k km's on it. Now which sounds the most sensible option? And what are some ways to have the engine checked to try avoid anymore problems...some ways i've thought of are a compression test and CO2 sniffer thingo. Any other ways? [Report message to a moderator]
