i was looking through one of my buddies import magazines called Turbo. they had this little section on engine swaps,tips,how toos,and a list of common and uncommon engine swaps. the uncommon one that caught my attention was a 3rd gen RX7 with a toyota supra JDM 2JZE engine swapped into it. has anyone read up on this car? the swap looked factory in the one pic they showed of it. if you got tired of blowing up yor 3rd gen 13b this would be a different alternative

that's such a terrible thing to do. it's like giving in to the enemy. but i'm sure that car kicks a lot of *** though.

Ok, two things, one: to get the 2jzgte in an fd, major modifications have to be done. I mean, just look at that hideous hood they had to use to cover up that straight six,



And two: the landcruiser, while nice, will always suck for the fact that it weighs like 4,500 pounds.

My aunt had a turbo Supra....Always in the shop. Those engines aren't much more reliable. OUt of all the Toyota engines those are the only ones I know of that go out on you....
