Thought it was that !!
Don't have one, have been looking all over the net for the diagram as well but, with my limited computer knowledge - Could not find one....
And yes its a totally stripped out "race/drift/drag car" The only things inside is a dash, centre console, seat, two doorpannels, steering wheel, paddels and a Roll cage.....
Can't decide what I wanna use it for yet, can't drag with it cause Rudeboy will kick my a@@, Cant drift cause Jap spec will make me look like a idiot. So just want to get it running for now.......

It's a worked 7mgte, motor and box that I got from Piet Koleske, He was the only person to ever do a 10sec quatermile on scribante in Port Elizabeth, and this is the same engin. Although it was in a Lotus s1 at the time, the last time it was dyno'ed this motor made 430kw as per the tuner.
I do not want to make that kind of power for now but its nice to know that its possible. Once everything is sorted I will run it at 0.8bar boost for everyday use and will play around with higer boost later.
Still need to do wiring, Propshaft and brakes then it's time to play !!!!

Hey Westmaister
The motor's from the Toyota Supra, its a 3L 24valve turbo, this one is worked though, arias pistons, cometic gasket, big Garret T3/T5, etc etc etc...... the box is a supra box, very close to the 21R.
I do not know what the motor and box go for ??? Just what I paid........

7M-GTE
The turbocharged 7M-GTE was Toyota's top performance engine from 1987 through 1991 (2jzgte was released in 1991). Output was 232 hp (173 kW) at 5600 rpm and 240 ft·lb (325 N·m) at 4000 rpm for most 5 psi (0.34 bar) versions.
A special 7M-GTEU version, with a modified CT26 high-flow turbocharger and large volume intercooler, pushed output to 267 hp (199 kW) at 5600 rpm and 264 ft·lb (358 N·m) at 4400 rpm. This was used only in the racing homologation Toyota Supra Turbo A road and race cars. The Turbo A models also measured air based on manifold pressure rather than using an air flow meter, had a larger intercooler, larger throttle body, optimized CT-26 turbo, and various other differences. In fact, for the short time it was produced, it was the fastest Japanese car ever made.
The 7M-GTE was known to suffer from blown head gaskets due to improper torque specifications of the head bolts from the factory. Despite endless claims to this problem and obvious proof of a design error, Toyota never took responsibility or issued a recall. This problem could easily be prevented by the back yard mechanic by removing the valve cover and re-torquing the head bolts to a higher torque specification.It is recommended to replace the head gasket and torque the head bolts to 75 lbs.
Specifications:
* Displacement: 2,954 cc (180.3 cu in)
* Bore: 83.0 mm (3.27 in)
* Stroke: 91.0 mm (3.58 in)
* Compression Ratio: 8.4:1
* Weight: 119.5 kg (263 lb)
Applications:
* 1987–1992 Toyota Supra MkIII (MA71)
* 1986–1991 Toyota Soarer (MZ20/MZ21)

Tomorrow got a full day to work on my babies.....
On my corsa (2006 1.4 lite with a turbo) - Quickly going to remove the turbo and have gaskets made up to go between the turbo and manifold as the "gun-gum" every two weeks thing does not work for me !!!
On the SX - Will spend the rest of the day doing some of the wiring and fitting the Dash.
And take some proper pics of the car........

Hey guys
Corsa is fixed - (not that you guys wanted to know that )
Sx - busy with wiring harness, quite a biaatch to put back if you have never seen one inside a car, or took it out yourself.... But coming along slowly. (Put it in , take it out, put it in, shit wire has to go throught that opening there, otherwise it will not reach, take it out again.......etc etc)
You should not attempt this if your fuse is short.
.. Need to sort out the battery placement and see if everything that I need to work works.... then snip snip to all those plugs and wires not needed.
Deadline set for End August to have it driveable.
