;) Did you mean to reply something with this last post? yeah to the post before me about high comp lol im interested in changing my engine to high comp, so im curious about a good set of cams and pistons and what I would need to change to high comp. So like the whole process from start to finish of...

Yes, you'd need fuel injection system, in the order of reflashing the ECU, stand-alone, or something that can be programmed on a dynamometer and matched to the engine carefully. High revving NA engines need very precise mapping on 3d level or it just gets anemic in many areas of the mapping. Also, ...

As mentioned the only difference between the GZE and the NA of the same generation is the pistons. Very few 16 valves had squirters and a number of smallports did not. As mentioned none of the US smallports that I know of and I believe the same with the GZE of the same era. JDM is really irrelevant...

Considering that the GZE is stronger plus oil squirters, im gonna stick with the GZE, plus the option to supercharger is there if I want to. US market GZEs did not come with oil squirters, that I can recall. The only difference between the long block in an MR2 and MR2 supercharged was pistons. Did ...

Did you have a chance to check out the pictures of it? How would one go about knowing if my engine is JDM or not?

if I were you, I'd sell that GZE long block to someone who will make use of it and get yourself a small port high comp motor to build from if high compression N/A is your goal. Considering that the GZE is stronger plus oil squirters, im gonna stick with the GZE, plus the option to supercharger is t...

I think 90 at the wheels would be pretty optimistic. I drove my GZE for 6 months without the supercharger and I was getting passed by VW busses and econo model civics with 8 mexicans in it. Honestly I doubt you would be doing much more than 90 at the crank. As already said, tuning isn't your bigges...

As the title says, I have never posted on a forum before so forgive any ignorance I might have. About three months ago i bought my first car with my own money, a 1987 modified Toyota Corolla. Had my buddy who is a mechanic come check it out with me, drove the car, it seemed in working order so I bou...
