Default question about the gs300 motor

this might be a dumb question.

is the gs300 a v6 or inline 6 motor.

the badging for a JDM Aristo indicates V300.

Is this motor the same as the IS300 motor and supra?

Thanks

3.0 liter in-line 6

V300 is one of the trim levels of the JDM Aristo, correct

Yes, it's the same motor as the IS300 and non-turbo Supra, the 2JZ-GE. Differences for platform in exhaust, intake configuration. I don't believe the Supra had VVT-I though.

pretty much what dave sad

it's the i6, not v6. v6 only in es300 and rx300, not in the performance line. v300 is just a model for the tt version of the aristo in japan. the non-tt version i think it's the s300.

the motor in the is300 and gs300 are the same, they are the same as the supra non-tt engine. the supra tt has a different i6 engine, not the same. and it's not a direct swap neither, so they are not interchangeable.

the i6 on the gs300 and the is300 has vvti, but not on the supra i believe. however the tt engine in the v300 i think they have vvti?
