Not picking it up until Monday, but have found a Gen IV 3SGE for a stupidly cheap price today - perfect for my rally car project.
Plan is to completely rebuild using lightweight forged rods/pistons, increased CR, balanced bottom end, flowed head, etc and throttle bodies. With uprated cam gear, should be looking at a rev limit of at least 9,000rpm - especially if I use shimless buckets out of a 1zz-fe, and save approx 30gms of weight per bucket at the same time  220 - 240bhp with an aftermarket ECU is my aim.....
