I know I might not be the first one to think of this, but two of my friends have '94 toyota mr2's, and they ____ me off because i can't keep up to them with my xB obviously ahahah! So, I want to swap a 3S-GTE in there. Before doing so, I just want to know if anybody has heard of someone who did this, or has thought of doing it. I can get a 2nd gen motor for about $1800 and a 3rd gen for about $2500. I know its going to be pretty much 100% custom stuff, I just wanna maybe see some examples and get some feedback before doing this! :D

I would try a 1ZZ/2ZZ swap before that. I don't personally know of any. Bt the 2ZZ swap is common on Puerto Rico

My friend was actually talking to me about the 2ZZ, only thing though is that its not turbo but w/e, i'll buy one for it ahah Oh, and another thing. I was thinking of keeping it fwd, could it be possible or does torque= no fwd ?

Go 2zz with a supercharger. Maybe lack of turbo lag and having VVTL-i can help you match up with them.

or you can just turbo the xb. a much cheaper option

If you bought a Supra then your friends would be swapping 2JZ's in their MR2's just so they could keep up?

JDMJim

or just buy a car that you can make fast for cheap

Yeah.... I could.... I just really like the look of the xB. I mean, here in Canada, we're like xb's in the region, so its pretty rare! I'd love to make it even more unique.

JDMJim

well, don't get confused. you either want a boxy slow car or a fast sports car. But you can't really have both
