hey !
im just in the process of getting my 7m gte!, yes another victim of the head torque diease. doing a headgasket at a performace workshop, doing all the head stuff at the same place, saves money
the heads off there.. put it back together today,
its costing me a total of around $1000, because i got all the parts myself, racing gaskets and arp bolts.
f*ck those hoses are a bitch to find!
::: did the 7M GTE and the 7M GE share the same vacaum hose layout??
::: What torque is recommend? 75 ib/torque or something right??? instead of the factory torque of 52 ?
i need to know.. the mechanic needs to know! today!
PLUS! .. im thinking about getting this mz20 soarer lowered.. they use the same as the mk3 supra, haven't the cash for the coil-over adjustable type at the moment. just a good set of springs.. are all mk3 supra springs tems compatable? what makes them compatable

Torque them to their instructions. Other specs are for the factory bolts only.

nah these hoses had a sh*t load of bends in them.
the main air hose off the head cover cost $75 bucks
only a foot long hose! 
but the rest. pretty damn cheap.. genuine toyota parts don't cost a packet!
if u need parts for your toyota go see Alf at sci-fleet toyota parts at kedron, brisbane.. dah
he's just brillant, knows a ton a sh*t!
