Toyota Motor Corporation's M family of engines were a longitudinally mounted straight-6 engine design. They were used from the 1960s through the 1990s. All M family engines were OHC designs. While the M family was born with a chain-driven single camshaft it evolved into a belt-driven DOHC system after 1980. All M family engines used a cast-iron block with an aluminum cylinder head, and were built at the Toyota Kamigo plant in Toyota City, Japan.

The M-E variant, available only in the Japanese domestic market, was the first Toyota engine to be equipped with fuel injection (around the same time as the 4-cylinder 18R-E). The 4M-E was the first Toyota engine to be equipped with fuel injection for non-Japanese markets. The M family were Toyota's most prestigious engines (apart from the uncommon V family V8) for over 30 years. They were commonly found on the large Toyota Crown, Mark II, and Supra models.

The first M was a {{convert|1988|cc|L|1|abbr=on|order=flip}} version produced from 1965 through 1988. It was a 2-valve SOHC engine. Cylinder bore and stroke was square at {{convert|75|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. Output was {{convert|110|-|115|PS|bhp kW|0|abbr=on}} at 5,200 to 5600 rpm, depending on specifications and model year. Typical torque is {{convert|16|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 3,800 rpm.

The "M-C" engine, for commercial vehicles such as the Crown Van produces {{convert|105|PS|bhp kW|0|abbr=on}}.{{citation | title = Toyota Commercial Cars (Catalog) | publisher = Toyota | year = 1969 | page = 2 }}

Anti emissions versions, the M-U and M-EU, replaced the M and M-E on the Japanese market in mid 1976. The emissions system was called TTC (Toyota Total Clean), with a "-C" to denote the installation of a catalytic converter. For commercial vehicles, the emissions controlled carburetted version was called the M-J.

The original federalized version of the SOHC engine produced just {{convert|116|hp|PS kW|0|abbr=on}} at 4,800 rpm and {{convert|20|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 3,600 rpm.

In Australia the 5M-E (in 1985) had {{cvt|140|PS|kW PS bhp|0|order=out}} at 4,800 rpm and {{convert|23|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 3,600 rpm due to the particular emissions standards at the time. This engine was used in the Supra in Australia as well as Sweden and Switzerland, while Swiss buyers were also offered this engine in the Cressida and the Crown.

In Europe (aside from Sweden and Switzerland, who received the same spec engine as Australia) the 5M-E produced {{convert|145|PS|bhp kW|0|abbr=on}} in the Crown MS112 and the Celica Supra MA61.

5M-GE

The 12-valve (2 valves per cylinder) DOHC 5M-GE is familiar as the engine of the Toyota Supra and Toyota Cressida of the 1980s. It was quite different from any previous member of the M family, with Bosch L-Jetronic-derived electronic fuel-injection (using an AFM intake measuring scheme), wide-angle valves, and belt-driven dual camshafts. It used hydraulic valve lifters, a first for Toyota. The use of rocker arms and valve lash adjusters eliminated the need for valve clearance maintenance, a world first for any twin cam engine.{{citation | title = All About the Toyota Twin Cam, 2nd ed. | url = http://www.3sgte.com/page_10.htm | page = 8 | publisher = Toyota Motor Company | year = 1984 | location = Tokyo, Japan }} This version of the M made its US debut in 1982's Toyota Celica Supra MK2. The 1982 version had a vacuum-advance distributor, whereas the 1983–1988 versions found in the Celica Supra and Cressida had full electronic control of the ignition system and distributor. The newer engine control system found in these later cars was named TCCS, or Toyota Computer Control System and, together with different intake runners, increased max power by {{convert|5|PS|bhp kW|0|abbr=on}} from August 1983.[http://www.3sgte.com/page_11.htm Toyota Twin Cam], p. 9

Output ranged from {{convert|145|to|175|bhp|kW|0|abbr=on}}, depending on exhaust system, emissions controls, compression ratio, intake runner shape (earlier models had round intake runners and later models had D-shaped intake runners), and ECU tuning.

There were aftermarket crank and piston kits offered for the 5M-GE that took the displacement up to 2.9 L for {{convert|230|bhp|kW|0|abbr=on}} and 3.1 L for {{convert|250|bhp|kW|0|abbr=on}}. Outfitted with kits like the Kuwahara 3100, these engines were often used quite successfully in powerboat racing in the mid-1980s.

Specifications:

  • Valvetrain: DOHC 2 valves per cylinder
  • Forced Induction: None
  • Displacement: {{convert|2759|cc|L cuin|abbr=on|1}}
  • Bore x stroke: {{convert|83x85|mm|in|abbr=on|2}}
  • Compression Ratio: 8.1:1 to 9.2:1

  • Torque: {{convert|19.4|-|23.5|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|abbr=on|order=out|0}}
  • Production: 1982–1988

Applications (calendar years):

Differences between years on US model of the Celica Supra:

  • 1982 Supra 5M-GE had vacuum-advance distributors and 9-to-0 volt output AFMs.
  • 1982–1983 Supra 5M-GE had dual V-belt accessory drive, 65 amp alternator, square-tooth camshaft belts, 8.8:1 compression ratio, shallower oil pan, and round intake runners.
  • 1983–1985.5 Supra 5M-GE had 0- to 5-volt output AFM's and TCCS.
  • 1984–1985.5 Supra 5M-GE had 7-rib serpentine accessory drive belts, 60 amp alternator, round-tooth camshaft belts, 9.2:1 compression ratio, knock sensor, deeper oil pan, and D-shaped intake runners.

6M-GE

Toyota increased the 5M-GE's stroke to {{convert|91|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} to create the {{convert|2954|cc|L|1|abbr=on|order=flip}} 6M-GE. This necessitated the fitment of larger diameter intake runners {{convert|37|mm|in|2|abbr=on}} versus {{convert|35|mm|in|2|abbr=on}}. Only produced in 12-valve (2 valves per cylinder) DOHC/fuel-injected versions, it was available as the 6M-GE and Japan-spec 6M-GEU from 1984 through 1987. The 6M engine used the same crank, machined to accept a different torsional damper, as the 1986–1989 7M-GE and 7M-GTE engines; this fact is witnessed by the designation "6M" stamped on the counterweight of the crank on the earlier 1986–1988 7M engines.

Output was {{convert|170|-|190|bhp|PS kW|0|abbr=on}} at 5,600 rpm and {{convert|23.5|–|26.5|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 4,400 rpm. The 6M-GEU is usually the lower powered variant of 6M engines, due to more restrictive exhaust and increased emissions-control hardware. Even though it was never offered in US-market vehicles, it is sometimes imported from countries where it was available and transplanted into US-market Celica Supras and MX63 and MX73 Cressidas, since it is externally identical to the 5M-GE.

The 7M-GE was produced from 1986 through 1992. Output was {{convert|190|-|204|bhp|PS kW|0|abbr=on}} at 6,000 rpm and {{convert|25.5|–|27|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 3,600 rpm.{{Cite web|title=Supra Statistics | url=http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/TechTips/statistics.aspx|access-date=2021-05-28|website=Cygnus X1 }}

Output was {{convert|232|hp|kW PS|0|abbr=on}} at 5,600 rpm and {{convert|35.1|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|0|abbr=on|order=out}} at 3,200 rpm for most {{convert|5|psi|bar|abbr=on}} versions. It was Toyota's top performance engine until it was replaced by the JZ-series engines.

Toyota produced a variant of the existing Japanese-market 7M-GTEU which featured a modified CT26 high-flow turbocharger and large volume intercooler, pushed output to {{convert|267|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} at 5,600 rpm and {{convert|36.5|kgm|Nm lbft kgm|order=out|0|abbr=on}} at 4,400 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. It was one of the fastest Japanese cars at the time. The homologation was for the Group A series. The Group A Supra with a 7M-GTE and CT26 turbo produced {{convert|580|bhp|abbr=on|disp=flip|0}}.
