Well hell. Looks like I'll just have to give it a go. T/A will be done this weekend, from a dig you pick the spot and we'll go. And that V6 you raced was a great run btw

i'll give you the dig race bro i have worn out tires (i tend to drift around some turns when im in a rush so i'd rather do a role race. maybe 40 punch or something...the ss i raced was on a role also. we both hit it in 2nd. what all do you have done btw? and are you a A4 or M6?

Wow...

You've got to know the name of your own engine right?
I hate it when people say "JDM" motor.
You have a 3s-gte, which btw, has the same ceramic turbo as the usdm MR2
Every 3S-GTE engine from 1990-1994 (2nd gen) utilizes a Toyota CT26 turbocharger...
The only difference between the two is the JDM one is pushing a tiny bit more boost stock and is rated at 20+hp more...
In 93 the boost was raised again and it was rated at 45hp more.


Now please, for the love of god, stop saying JDM motor like it's something special. It might impress your know nothing friends, but it means nothing on here.

Here is your drink. A big cup of who the **** cares. JDM motor says more than the ABC-GT 3 engine with the BS turbo. On this site it doesn't matter what Jap engine some Jap car has.

The T/A has pretty much every bolt-on imaginable and it's an M6. Intake, LT's, ORY with a dumped bullet Moroso, E-waterpump, double roller timing chain, !AIR!, !EGR!, !A/C!, !airbag!, MSD coil, MSD wires, poly engine and tranny mounts, battery in the back, tune, a little weight reduction, short shifter, and some nice meaty ET streets. I'll go from a 40 too, but I dunno if it'll get any better for you

lol wow that's far from an ss with exhaust. how much power? i may have to bring my ws6 to race that! camed or heads?
as far as the jdm thing i figure some people didnt know what 3S-GTE is so i said jdm (because everyone know that the jdm ones put more power down) lol i know the name of my motor bro. but i wouldnt get on a honda forum and tell them i have a ls1, i'd say the engine on my 98 t/a. can honda guys tell you the difference between lt1 and ls1? or ls1 and ls6? i think not...so that's why i said jdm. but for future reference discerningz32 i'll put 3S-GTE just for you!

I'm not saying you or I should care. Just that it seemed sad that he's acting like the JDM engine is soooo much better then the usdm when they are the same...

A select few might care, the majority probably don't.

BTW Confuzed, are you STILL on the juice and NA???

im not going to argue with you bro but the jdm 3s-gte can withhold more power with stock internals. and the intake is ceramic coated and i got on the mr2oc.com forum and the turbo on usdm ones are not ceramic. that's why the jdm turbo spools faster. eitherway this isnt a toyota forum so im just going to drop it.

Then why even mention it???

And you are still wrongDon't believe everything you hear on a forum.
Hell, just last week someone posted on here that the only difference between an LS6 and an LS1 is the intake manifold.......................................... ..........................

That's Shitty.

Damn man, I was about to trade in my 98 5.9 ZJ (grand cherokee) for one of those... But I didn't like their axles and diffs (and ground clearance). No suspension travel = no go. Still can't find anything worth trading my zj for.

What happened to it? How do you blow up a stock 06 5.3l ?!?!?!

DEpends on the wieght of the passangers also. 3 ppl is a lot of extra weight the mr2 is already lighter so thats more to the OPs favor nice kill anyway OP
