Hey guys figured this would get your panties in a bunch.... I read this article in the Q&A section of Import tuner magazine earlier this year or sometime last year. I almost unsubscribed after this.
DISCUSS! http://www.importtuner.com/tech/impp_1206_...stions_answers/ --------------------  QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM)  You want power but have no money. That's a problem. Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two. |

The 3SGTE needs no help from us to defend its honor... WRC in various Celicas, JGTCC in various Supras... BUT....the 3SGTE platform is expensive. You can make gobs of power with this engine. But that power is not off the shelf - nor is it readily (read: easily) available to the unwashed masses. The aftermarket support for this engine sucks... you have 3 options, complete **** from china ($), very good parts ($$$$) or OE/TTE Parts ($$$$$). AND - Most of the Group A (rally) spec Engine parts have been all gobbled up or are stratospherically priced. As someone who is building a 3SGTE with simple upgrades and OE parts, I could have a VERY nasty Subaru motor. And don't get me started with what I could have in a V8 Ford with the kind of money I am dumping into my modest build...
Yeah he said it full of snark and vitriol, he's a fan-boy, I guess I'm not surprised. To paraphrase, "He's not wrong, he's just an asshole. " This post has been edited by qatar11: Dec 10, 2013 - 7:16 PM -------------------- -Mike
