I've been looking into getting more power out of my 94 gt, i don't want to turbo it or swap to a 3sgte. so is it possible to build a reliable na 5sfe that will push around 200bhp?

My '97 vert GT has 133,000 miles on its 5SFE engine, and it runs perfect. The car handles like it's on rails, and I sometimes wonder if the V6 would make life a little more exciting. Does the V6 weigh much more than the 5SFE? I don't want to mess with the car's already great handling by adding a heavy motor.

I'm pretty sure 1mz-fe is lighter than a 5sfe. 1Mzfe is pretty much all aluminum 5sfe aluminum/ cast iron (this is the problem) I'm building up the suspension as well. Moving to a 1mzfe would benefit more. More power and less weight in the front. This post has been edited by 955SFE: Sep 13, 2014 - 3:03 PM --------------------  |
