Had this picture in my archives from a few days ago. Though it was related to an RX330 Delta Kompressor (in conjunction with TTE?).

do you have more info on this ?

I wish I did. We were talking about Delta in one of our earlier discussions in the this particular forum. I am not a fan of superchargers (due to seeing a lot of belts break), but this is the only one I have seen on an RX330 design unlike the TTE Kompressor for the RX330.

I was just on TTE's website, www.tte.de, and I noticed that their designation for both the older and newer RX is both RX300, not 300 and 330.

I wonder then whether the euro specs car is the same spec as asian version, RX300.
Does it mean that the newer car is using the same 3.0L engine?

In Europe, they were still using the RX300 designation even after the RX330 came out in Canada/U.S. and from what I remember the engine still had less power than the Canada/U.S. RX330s and I am nearly positive it was still using a 3.0 L engine on the new RX330 style body. On TTEs site I think one of the models as a 1 and the other a 3 or something after it to distinguish the two styles.

yup, they are new rx300 with the 3.0 engine 1MZ, but they are still using the RX300 designation

Yeah the RX330, known as Harrier, in Asian market is still using the 3.0L from the last generation RX300. With the exception of some tuning to promotes better emission and the addition of 5 speed automatic.
