700 hp 3S-GTE
Sorry if this is a repost or if you guys know about it already, I thought it was pretty cool.. But personally, for that $$$ I'd go for a 1200hp 2JZGTE If I had a mkiv of course.. --------------------  |

*all* the race supras use the 3sgte...even the top secret supra that does 0-200 in 12 seconds. its a much lighter engine, and you can get the same amount of power out of it...that 700hp 3s is actually in a supra...so yummy...

I cant really see how that engine can be a 3SGTE. The setup looks very different. Anyway, my mechanic is currently setting up a 700 bhp 3SGTE on a GT4. I will check it out and let you know. he had a 450 bhp engine on that car but wanted more so he sold the engine and started all over again with a 3SGTE engine from an MR2 which he got really chiep. he paid so far about $10k for parts, $600 for the engine, $2500 for some new Turbo he is bringing from the States and he was planning to begin working on it last month.
btw he put the old engine on a fwd 6 gen and wooot that thing could spin tyres in 4th gear. just amazing

um, actually the only supra's that have the 3s-gte are ones made for top speed (like the top secret with the 3s-gte)..... the only reason for doing so is because it makes more of a balanced car, and they can mount the smaller motor closer to the firewall, making it more sturdy at higher speeds.... |

And another reason is for them to be able to compete in the lower category from what i remember when i first read the article.

dunno about it being only for top speed. they used to run 3sgte's in all the jgtc supras before they switched to the 3uzfe. |

Aston Martin would get it's ass handed to it by a Celica with that motor for less than half the price.

On a side note, I went and looked at buying this car...
http://www.suprastore.com/19sutwtuau.html I drooled driving it and I think the guy got pist cuz the steering wheel and driver's seat and anywehre that I was or touched was sopping wet with sweat and drool...and a little bit snot since I had a cold and was sneezing. I didn't buy it though because insurance would have killed me more than the Rex does. -------------------- 95 Toyota Celica GT
