JDM TT Power

has anyone heard of the 1g-gteu. when we lived in okinawa, had a supra, 89 mk3. not sure what it is, ma70blah blah whatever, but it had a 1g-gteu. now i know the specs, but what else is there to know bout it. i hear it's quick off the line than a 2jz, well some wouldnt know it becuz this is japanese performance parts yall probably couldnt get ahold of and the 1g-gteu isnt much to be talked bout since america never got it. any facts. mines had bout 265hp, exhuast, bov, i forgot whatelse my brother did to it. gutted the interior out, weight reduction. it was fast

...ok...

:uhoh:

great :thumbsup:

The 1G series is an antique of the I6 Toyota engines, with the 1g-gte being the most powerfull (relitivly speaking because the 7m-ge is more powerfull than it stock with all it's whopping 200hp). It came in the GA70 Supra and a number of other jap/aus/euro Toyota's. It's a down grade for any MA70 Supra, less HP potential, less displacment, much harder to find parts for in the US, much harder to find someone who knows what there doing to it, and so on and so forth. You can import a GA70 half-cut, but for the same price you could have a JZA70 half-cut with more HP potential and more aftermarket support (still not much in the US compared to the 7M though). It's definetly not quicker off the line than anything besides a honda, it might seem fast because of the low gearing, no more high speed highway runs. It is a very relible engine though, I6 so it's very smooth, small square stroke/bore so it's also very rev-happy, but it's much better suited to a smaller car like the corolla's and celica's it's swapped into everyday, over the tank of a car we call the Supra. :) There are a few other differences between the MA70's and GA70's but there not really relivient I guess.

thanks, i learned a few things. unlike blu shitvic(honda sucks) and flying mk4, they were no help, i just wanted to know a few things bout the engine i had.
