a BEAMS would be awesome but if we are going to talk about swamps and toyota you know it has to be a 2jz
however if its gonna be built for drift then you know its gotta be a V8 under the hood |

I can't tell if he's joking or not. @Mac: Its 2Z-GTE, not GTTE...this isn't a nissan motor. And, if he's being serious, probably the 3UZ. I agree, the 3S seems to be a suitable candidate for a swap, but honestly, we can't tell anything until we can see the clearance under the hood. Its going to be running a Flat 4 and might not take nicely to swapping in an inline, though if I'm not mistaken, the 3S needs to be at slant angle anyways for oil flow. Can look kinda silly. Trying to think of others engines that might be easier to swap (possibly straight bolt up to stock FT-S transmission, or simple bellhousing swap w/ no welding necessary). Course, don't know, don't have exact model info on the transmission...maybe the AR? Last edited by OldSkoolToys; 04-13-2011 at 09:09 PM. |

Sorry for the type... but it can be GTTE head if you add a custom twin turbo set up ... just as if you ass dual a supercharger it you can call it a GZE head.. (and yes I have seen a 2JZ-GE with a custom supercharger on it.. it was on an IS.. thing was pretty bad ass.

Toyota doesn't designate a Twin Turbo setup in their engine code with a double T. I know Nissan does, some other companies might as well for all I care. 2JZ-GTE is the engine code for the Twin Turbo Mk4, just as 1JZ-GTE is the engine code for the Twin Turbo Mk3. When you say 2JZ-GTE or 1JZ-GTE, its an automatic that its twin turbo...unless its been modified to a single turbo setup. Thats all I was pointing out. The engine code is 2JZ-GTE, not GTTE. Just me being a toyota..err, grammar police I guess. On topic: I forgot (somehow) about the 2ZZ...might also be a good candidate. Its fun to speculate for sure, but we'll just have to wait and see. |

the ZZ-GE could be a swap .. That motor never got the love it should have...
and its cool about being the grammar police... but typos do happen and I just over looked it.. and I know the T stand to turbo charge ... GE stand for performance head, GZE stands for a supercharged performance head. GTE stand for a Turbo charged performance head. FE stands for fuel economy head.. and so on.. in then tuner world .. a lot of people your GTTE to let others know they are talking about a custom Twin turbo.. and not the stock version that came from factory ... but more people switch to a single turbo set up.. |

No they don't. The only unconventional term is NA-T referring to a 7MGE or 2JZGE that has been custom turbo'd. Common usage is simply 1JZ or 2JZ, automatic implication usually being that it is tubo'd. When specifying a setup you will hear '1JZ with stock twins', '2JZ with big single' never '2JZGTTE'.
2JZGTTE = Noob speak. And referring to a 2JZGE/NA-T as a 2JZGTE is also a fail. You are henceforth educated.
