Thanks, was considering pilfering one off one of my 5mge engines otherwise haha will see what Toyota want to sting me for one first

You, good sir, are my golden champion of the day. Cleaned plugs and unplugged cold start injector and now it's running!

Yeah that's why I checked the compression but it's definitely good enough to run, and i replaced the plugs after it stopped going and it made no difference, have also cleaned them since then

Yeah I thought that but I have 5 coils lying round (I may have an M series hoarding problem) and no change for any of them

Hey all, I have an 81 ms112 hardtop jdm spec 5m-e that up until recently was running sweet, started running rough when cold but still mint when warm and now will just simply not start at all. Compression is ok, has brand new spark plugs, have changed tps, afm, dizzy, coil, igniter, relays, and checked the earth straps and it kind of wants to fire and is getting plenty of fuel but spark doesn't seem to be strong enough. About at the point where I'm going to set the damn thing on fire. Any ideas on things to try? Cheers ☺

Just to throw my 2c in... I had (many years ago, in another city...) a fully optioned (moon roof, lsd, analog gauges with 9k rev counter) 1983 ga61 celica supra. Went nutty even after I thrashed it so hard it dropped 2 cyls. Wouldn't die thrashing onward. Got sick of it not dieing, yammed a 1g-gte from a mk3 ga70 in there (swap sump, oil pickup, engine mounts it will bolt in) so 1g-gte 7psi model, 600x300 baby-catching fmic, free flowing exhaust, good final drive being in front of a w55 and f283 Went crazy. No engine mods 200something k on it and smoked many tyres and fuckwits on the road, til I had to sell it to move to wgtn POINT IS - some things are so rare that they are worth more unmodified. If I had unmolested that car, sold it to someone that thought "omg fully optioned 2000gt celica supra" and spent the extra money on starting with a 1geu auto, it would have been better for both me and the guy that appreciated it's factory form. Which was pretty a damn sweet form. End of the day, do what you like, I think it's cool and it'll definitely be more noticeably ballsy with the right piping/exhaust/etc than 1g-ge But keeping it original or giving it to someone that would never find one otherwise is cool too, and could give you more money for more boost Good luck with it all sorry bout the long post guys

Hey all, need a 7mge ecu and a coil/igniter for the same, in wellington, as soon as possible if anyone has either or both please text or call me 0275094666 thanks
