so i was just do so messing around and came across the TRD 503e engine, i guess this is like the holy grail as far as Toyota motors are concerned? any1 ever seen one or got any pix of it, i only ask bcuz i came across so guy selling one. I guess the numbers are 1000 hp tuned for spirnt cars and it can be detuned to 600 hp very reliably.

That thing is overkill, let alone it will put a huge hole in your pocket. You will never find parts for it unless you have a hook up at TTE or be a good fabricator with access to CNC machine and such. Parts from regular 3sgte will not fit in there.

"The most famous and successful Toyota Race engine- the 503E was used in Toyota's Triumphant Championship seasons in IMSA GTO / GTP, Pikes Peak, Le Mans, and in the mid-90s Japan Touring Cup Championship. It is important to note that the 16 valve cylinder head layout from the 152E engine and the T block crankshaft saddle design were used as design base for this ultimate Toyota 4 cylinder Turbocharged race engine. The 503E represented the most powerful 4 cylinders in competition history developing over 1000HP in qualifying tune, 800HP for sprint races, and 600 for endurance events. IMPRESSIVE."
some info i found on toysport.com......and yes this thing must be god of all 4 cylinder engines..... -------------------- (\__/)
