Tiger Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 You'd be looking at a $10K+ engine there easy! It'd have some grunt in it for sure... and loads of rare goodies in/on there too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blown 5k Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I have seen that engine in the flesh its in a japanese toyota museum suppose to have 185 hp and i think they would have noticed it if i tried to put it in my pocket and leave with it :) when i was there they were also restoring a 2000gt awesome looking car that at one time held a world distance and speed record :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 To: oldcorollas <[email protected]>From: Super Jamie <[email protected]> Date: Thu May 12, 2005 10:40 pm Subject: Re: [oldcorollas] 16V head for 4K engines you will find pictures of the tom's 150e (aka: 3k-r) engine on hiro's site here - http://homepage2.nifty.com/hiro-cy/ - as you can see, they bear little similarity to the engines we have in our cars, twincam head, waste spark, mechanical injection. god only knows what other block mods have been done they were made for international group 2 racing in the 70s for kp47 starlets, i have a document with some tosco/trd part numbers but considering there was probably one or two of these engines made, ever, you'd never get hold of one. the engine in hiro's pics is rumored to be an item of interest in some old japanese racer's loungeroom. later trd catalogs for 4k-powered kp61 starlets use the ohv head like our motors do, just with bigger valves, twin dellortos, cdi ignition, engine and diff oil coolers, custom gears, big disc brakes, etc etc there's a guy on rollaclub.com (by the name of "blown 5k") who claims to have been to japan and seen a starlet or corolla getting around with an ex-race 3k-r engine, apparently they haul ass if you're keen for a twincam engine in your corolla, a 4a-ge is a good start. a 2t-g would be a close second, though a little heavier. you can also convert a suzuki swift g13b motor to rwd by using sierra 4x4 bits, and they're a stout little engine. a 1g or 3s will also fit and is legal in ke30-onwards :) Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 and it is a 3k. look at the manifold side ribs and welsch plugs around the distributor, unmistakably a 3k. besides which, 2t and 4age have different valve cover and bolt arrangement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRD ke70 Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 I have seen that engine in the flesh its in a japanese toyota museum suppose to have 185 hp and i think they would have noticed it if i tried to put it in my pocket and leave with it :) when i was there they were also restoring a 2000gt awesome looking car that at one time held a world distance and speed record :) what museum in Japan was it in??? if i go back to work for Suzuki i'll try and get there. i know toyota have a museum in Nagoya and it's only an hour up the road.
