[koolspyda]

two chaps (english forums) have fitted the new 3SGTE (2003 caldina) onto the MRS (1 in UK & 1 in US). soory to hijack alteeza thread. ;)

fuhyoh. any pic?

 

[koolspyda]

3SGTE many years (over 15years now since development) so alot to main (parts) .

the ZZ series is relatively new (its already 'BEAMS' engine. more & more parts are now being to be developed. (thanks the the demand for lotus elise using the yamaha produce ZZGE engines.)

the minor setback of ZZ series is that it aluminium block as oppose to cast iron block of 3S engines. Thats why the JGTC (Super GT) uses the 3S engine block to develope massive powers for racing. (MRS, celica & one time the GT500 supras)

The good side of ZZ is tat for daily reliabilty is better. Lower overheating problems & other benefits perserve the good name of toyota for they strive for reliabilty.

However, the global market is now moving so fast that even Yoda are pushing the button to have the hybrids into the 'sporty cars' segments. (i dont thnk it will be the ZZ anymore). date of the new hybrids ? they target 2007-2009!!!

Perhaps the question of going either manual or auto all comes down to how much money you want to spend on purchasing an Altezza. From what i've seen so far, manual Altezzas here definitely have a price premium of more than RM10k over the auto versions due to its rarity.
But still, I believe that if one can pay the price and take the hassles of Malaysian traffic, going the manual option will definitely provide a huge amount of ecstasy

Porosaki: Just wanna know...you have a manual Altezza? If you do, what have you done to it so far?

Sorry...Silly Questions

1) Can a stock altezza beat stock DC5???
2) How much to spend to dump in the 3S-GTE engine?
3) Currently, manual stock altezza producting 210hp. By putting in turbo kits will be producting 372hp? What turbo kits is that? How much it is cost in the market now?
4) What about Auto transmission, how much horsepower can product after dump in the turbo?
4) What is msia market price for Altezza now? is200? is250? or is300? yr2000? yr2001? yr2002? yr2003? yr2004? or yr2005???


Hope to hear from you guys soon. Thanks~!!!

FD3S...

1) no way
2) why not 1JZ cheaper
3) no idea....new turbo kit cost more than RM20K, 372hp that's too much....maybe additional 70-80hp only
4) ECU still hav restriction on gearbox.....
5) market price check motor trader or newspaper....

i hav a customer wanted to sell his altezza 1999 auto (bought new RM260K), tom's suspension, rsr extractor, trust open pod filter for RM110K

FD....altezza n dc5 diff class.....celica n dc5 sama class...... altezza is heavy

 

[dreamy]

FD3S ur rx-7 not power full enuff?

 

[koolspyda]

on DC5, its has been if it remain stock. you guys glorify it too much. it respectable engine but putting it on god-like status is incredible silly. The K20A does wonders when it modded more, but tats it.

put it on steets not just numbers. track or autocross. not some silly back yard, bar room prick statistics la. :) (jibe, jibe) hahahaa

ok back to this thread. why argue over 2ZZ (celica ) vs 3S (altezza) . both pun Yota. :)


just enjoy the ride la
