Default Just wondering.....

Hey guys, I'm a newbie in this forum and I want to learn as much as I can about Toyota and Lexus.

I was just wondering if any IS300 owners have done the Altezza/IS200 swap? Meaning, have any of you guys put in a 3s-ge in your IS300? I know it's going to a smaller engine, but the amount of power that it can produce is outragous! I just wanted to know. Thanks.

are you on crack? The 300's engine has 2 more cylinders and more displacement, I'm sure that it has much more potential that the 200.

I'm not on crack. I was just wonder if there was someone that WAS on crack. Besides, that would be interesting. BUT, the 3s-ge has been proven to push out 700 hp with some work FYI.

Well, I know that too. I was just wondering.

Oh and another question, has some one figured out how much a 2jz-ge auto tranny can hold in torque? I read about that IS300 in florida that was holding around 500lbs-ft of toque. What's the max on a modified auto tranny?
