how is an engine swap stock?

 

2JZ is the only engine offered in the IS300s

 

lol..thats why a lot of them are turbo'd and are freakin quick.

 

my girl just got me a magnetic band-aid for my car!

 

Is300 2jz-GE
Supra 2jz-gte...little different. Lower compression, oil squirters, better internals. Swapping the bottom end is the way to go.

 

Ones turbo.. Ones not lol..

Its basically

Is300 2jz-GE - B18C Type R
Supra 2jz-gte - B18C - GS-R w/Turbo

 

Yeah... but realistically if your pushing less than 500 the stock bottom end is fine. Past that your going to want some GTE or at least upgraded internals.

 

I seem to remember most people were sticking to around 350 rwhp on the stock block for reliability.

 

No.

More like.. B18 vs B18 head on a B20 block (minus the displacement change). Different bottom ends, and yes no turbo..

 

Yeah.. Thats a good number for alot of the stock parts, but people have started pushing it more and more. I mean the SRT race car was pushing 10's with the stock rear end... Everyone use to upgrade to the GS or Supra rear end because they thought it would blow.
