yeah its a bp. and this car has all the power it needs at this point. i literally have the boost as low as i can have it right now, until i upgrade my transmission. it made 243whp at 11 psi last year, and it weighs 1600lbs with me in it. you do the math :)

finally got this thing back on the road. we will see how long this transmission lasts low boost (5psi), the air was hot, the roads were hot, my tires were hot, and i was on concrete. not a bad combination... i actually got traction in 2nd, which was a first for this car. this is a roll in...

sounds like it might not be worth the effort... considering the condition is unknown

i was walking through a junkyard yesterday and i came across an sc300 with 105k miles. the 2jzge is still in it, looks pretty clean too. the actual condition on the motor is unknown, but is it worth anythign?

i like the color. would look better with a black car but i think it looks good

haha well ive always appreciated your straight forward no bs answers. and i think you are right. just bad timing thats for sure. im super car picky and the mk3 is one of the few cars i really like... i will probably be back in the game sometime soon.

you just want one less young noob asking the same questions over and over on your forum haha

i have tools but no inspiration lol. some mornings i wake up and im like hell yeah! 2jz! and other mornings im just like eh screw it... sell it to the guy who offered me $600. lol.

well thanks for all the advice guys but ive sorta run out of options. the gracious people letting me use their shop for free are moving in a month so i will no longer have the space. and mike at ss performance hasnt returned phone calls or emails so i dont think he is interested in doing...

is the is300 2jz the same as the sc300 and supra na 2jz? cause if going na-t is that easy, i might just go that route with an is.

well ive been looking for is300's but i dunno.... its just not quite a supra:icon_bigg is it worth pulling the 2jzge apart just to put the thicker headgasket in if im only looking for around 350whp? or is a headgasket replacement a must on 2jz's like the 7m

good deal. im gonna check into some prices.

lets just say im shooting for a reliable 350whp stock ge-t a safe bet?

what compression ratios are we talking? is it worth putting a spacer in? and i actually have no idea what i would need to tune it

interesting. how much power can the stock ge bottom end hold?

haha it hasnt been on craigslist in over a year. he had my 7m swapped in and ready to go for $800 (labor)

im thinking about paying someone to swap a motor. i know someone that works for very cheap and he specializes in the 2jz

very true. why do you say ge-t and not gte? i guess the stock twins dont fit well?

hmmm. but i will need all the intercooling piping and stuff like that because the 7m's wont bolt up.
