Hi
Could someone give me a stright answer to this question

i bought my car a year ago under a GT but my mate who works for Toyota says its not got the GT engine in it.
I said to my mate it says 2.0L but he says its a carollo engine. Is he taking the p*ss.

The info write in the chassis is:
ST202 3S-FE 2.0 16V

In the book it says GT 2.0 is 173bhp.

It is SS because that is how the japs decided to name it. ss1 , ss2, ss3 . Dont compare it to the US versions.

ss1 being the economy model with the 3s-fe engine. To make it faster? Nos, turbo or engine swap . the 3sge (180bhp) found on ss2 and ss3 or the 3sgte found in the st205. There is also the beams engine which came in some ss3 and in mr2s.

There is not much , if any gains to be made on this engine with addon mods like pod filter , exhaust etc. it is still going to be slow.
