am I missing something? If the is300 has a 2jz-ge, why would they have to swap a 2jz-gtte into it? Aren't the blocks the same? Why couldn't they just put a turbo kit on it?

[right][snapback]335223[/snapback][/right] It is.. its I thin around 210 hp stock, which is a fair amount. But for the size a bit on the heavier end.. dang nice cars. But have a lot of potential if ya wanna make it fast. But the cool thing is it dosnt have to be. Its still a sick ass car. Dick!

so the internals are weaker on a n/a supra? So turboing a n/a supra or a sc300/is300 would be a bad idea?
