ozarra Posted March 3, 2003 Posted March 3, 2003 Hey Guys! I am new here and I wanted to know what I could do to get my Is 300 much faster to compete at least as well as Twin Turbo Supra. I have not limited my budget yet but I am under 5G now. Thanks :D
Import_Boy Posted March 3, 2003 Posted March 3, 2003 there are couple of memebers doin a 2jz-gte engine swap. That will definitly contend against a supra, (especially since it IS the supra motor) Dont' remember who exactly, just look for some threads.
zeta Posted March 4, 2003 Posted March 4, 2003 supra-charged, one of our mods here on LOC is doing a full GTE swap. but as AWJ has mentioned in some other threads, turbo'ing a GE isn't bad either. and might i add... cheaper as well. :D
ozarra Posted March 4, 2003 Author Posted March 4, 2003 Thanks guys, I have seen on Is300.net a new turbo kit for 5G approximately for the 2jz-ge from Peter Farrell. Do you know anything about it? Also does anyone know serious and good shops in Florida to make modifs on the car.
AWJ Posted March 6, 2003 Posted March 6, 2003 Toyomoto! Call Lance. Know what you want before you talk to him though.
ozarra Posted March 6, 2003 Author Posted March 6, 2003 Thanks AWJ, I will check it out when I am really sure of what I want. Is there any web site to TOYOMOTO? To find out where it is in Florida :)
IS 300 Rulez Posted March 8, 2003 Posted March 8, 2003 Toyomoto is in Miami, and there turbos are NOT cheap, they are the best of the best though. So if you are planning on getting one from them, you better save up another 5G's...
AWJ Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 Do it right the first time with a well reveared turbo guru. You're not just paying for a turbo. But there is also - SRT Garage Advance Titan PHR Sound Performance Lots of options.
Import_Boy Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 Toyomoto doesn't really have much on their site, so it's probably just best to call them. 305-599-3050
ozarra Posted March 10, 2003 Author Posted March 10, 2003 Hey guys thanks! Though I am in Gainesville (U.F) I was hopping someone in either Orlando or Tampa area. Also when you are saying 10G for the Turbo, I hope it is a full kit!!! :o I am still doing my homework before taking any decision 'cause I want to do it right the first time
AWJ Posted March 11, 2003 Posted March 11, 2003 I think Titan is in the orlando area. I'll check up on that.
sniper007 Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 Is the supra motor really that much stonger then the IS's? to the point that people swap the motors?
zeta Posted April 16, 2003 Posted April 16, 2003 AWJ can take up this one. i'm scared to say anything. not completely sure on the strength comparison of the two engines.
Lexus_Rex Posted April 16, 2003 Posted April 16, 2003 well one has turbo and one doesnt 5-8g for turbo to put some decent numbers down 2-3k for gte motor 2-3 installation 2k for more parts plus its an older motor you do the math
JCE102JZGE Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 can anyone give me a link to the 2jz-gte swap forum? iv been searching all day. soo many pages...
cartman Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 can anyone give me a link to the 2jz-gte swap forum? iv been searching all day. soo many pages... i dont know if it good but i have waited 4000 dollars, and i was able to smoke a subaru sti. the mod that i did were a torque converter, srt intake and a zek kit(nitrious).i was doing 75 shots. that *BLEEP* felt pretty sweet, smoking an sti. do you guys know any future problems i might have in the future
