what if you took the late model 3S-GE top end (with VVT-i) and put in on the 3S-GTE?

would you have toyota reliability on a turbo motor with VVT-i?

or am i just an idiot and there is an obvious reason it won't work.

possible but not worth it. variable cam timing isn't beneficial for boosted vehicles.

There is no way to work..... smile.gif What a wild block have to do with the low compression block of the 3SGTE???...I think its nice move if you take the block from a 3SGE(VVTI) and put it on a 3SGE non-VVTI block... smile.gif you could have better results......
If you want to extend the duration with wilder camshaft profile HKS and JUN has very nice camshaft kits for 3S block smile.gif and trust me...its cheaper.

or you could buy a 10$ boost controller off ebay and get 10x the gain VVT-i would give u, in just a baisc 3sgte.

But i thought the Supra has a VVT-i? Or is it the VVTL-i?

Edit: what's the difference?

Later models of the 2JZ did have VVTi. I don't think it ever made it to the USDM supras... but I dunno. If it did, it was in the late model 97+...

As for VVTi and VVTLi... it can be as much as 40 hp difference (1zzfe vs. 2zzge). VVTL-i works similar to VTEC and provides variable cam lift and timing...

If you check out any race vehicle from honda or toyota, you'll see that neither of them have vtec or VVTi. Regardless of turbo or NA. More aggressive cams don't have variable valve timing. Turbo charging a car with vtec or VVTi, won't reach full potential because the cams have too much overlap.

VTEC and VVTL-i are not designed for race. They are designed to make "STREETABLE" horsepower. Of course, it would only make sense that their non-street race engines don't need to be cluttered with VTEC or VVTL-i. Agressive cam profiles can make a lot of power with good tuning on a Turbo car.
