Why doesnt Toyota make its own motor for the FT-86?? - Page 12 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

maybe they should put a 3.5 V6 in there like in the Evora. Sure it will be a lot heavier, but it could be a good matchup

Has anyone considered there are already stroker kits for the EJ engines? The BC kit brings it to 2.29L.....slap some cams and ITB's on there and you have a hi response torquey engine that can rev decently high....pretty awesome if you ask me....

still the 4A-GE would be a best candidate to be the heart of the FT86 make a more improvement to have a more grunt out of a 1.6 or maybe a 3S-GE.

They need to make an N/A engine that carries much of the same spirit of the 4A, not necessarily a 4A itself. High-revving, peppy, responsive N/A engine.

The 4A-GE is fine where it sits now. Happily under the hoods of many an 86 and MR2.

Some guys over at SF were hoping to swap a 2JZ into the 86. Will it work, is there room?

exactly.
ruin the handling of the car. look up 2jz s2k. amazing car but so much for the 50/50 weight distribution. but if your just looking for a drag car, anything is possible.

GMR is open. I went a couple weeks ago

NESW20 · 03-16-2010, 12:12 AM

GMR is too short...

when i lived in CA, we'd run canyons in a loop, roughly 150 miles (including all highway/freeway connectors).
