The engine that is in the SC300 and the one found it the MKIV NA Supra are identical. Nothing different between the 2 that I know of.

Engine Code: 2JZ-GE (naturally aspirated) DOHC
Displacment: 3.0 liters (2997cc)
Cylinder Bore: 86mm (3.39in)
Cylinder Stroke: 86mm (3.39in)
Uses Sequential Electronic Fuel Injection
Aluminum head and 4 valves per cylinder
Cast Iron Block
Static compression ratio of 10.0:1

JZ = JZ series engine, 6 cyl gasoline, family of straight-6 engines. Were replacement for M-series motors.

Heres something you didn't know:
After the dash in the engine code GE/GTE have a meaning behind them.
G-Twin Cam (sports/powerful) with multiple sidedraft carbs (unless EFI). Wide Angle, 45 degrees or more between the intake and exhaust valves.
E-Electronic Fuel Injection
T-Turbocharged

The 1 and the 2 and just engine generations. I'm getting off topic. I'm done.

Matter of fact here you go. http://www.mkiv.com/specifications/ncf/ncf93/

I also seem to recall reading somewhere that the GE and GTE have different heads, GTE being preferable by far.

Usually when people swap in Supra motors, they are swaping it for the 2jzgte.
The motors are identical through and through. The only thing not identical is the wiring harness connected to it; though it is VERY VERY VERY similar; in fact it only really differs near the ECU plug where it connects to the car's internal wiring system.

Oil pans are the SAME between all motors; the GEs just don't have the oil return hole drilled (nor the bolt holes on either side of it). Supra and SC300 have the same oil pan. They have an identical chassis forward of the driver including placement of the crossmember.

I'm taking a wild guess but I think he was joking...

I believe the biggest difference is, the turbo 1,2 jz-gte have lower compression pistons too add more boost= more power.
where as the na jz as higher compression pisions too make up for the power.

Default SC300 oil cap question

I have a 1992 SC300, the oil cap that I have is unreadable. Apparently there are two different caps 1 is 5w30 and the other is 10w30. Can the SC300 drivers kindly let me know witch one you have so I can go ahead and order the correct one.
thanks in advance!

Haha . This reminds me one time at a smog shop, the tech told me I had a LEXUS only engine vs. a TOYOTA engine in his ES330. Little did he know, the same engine is used in a TOYOTA Supra.
