i thought they were proven to not be as physically strong as the 2JZ?

and when did the MR-S have an I6?

When did the Corolla Spacio, Klugger and Caldina use an inline 6.

Certainly the 2JZ's strength and ability to have big turbo power added are big pluses. If that's what a person wants (and has lots of money for mods) then 2JZ might be the way to go. It's become pretty much the Japanese equivalent of the Chevy small block.

Personally I'd still want a more modern, cleaner, more efficient and much more powerful (unmodded) engine.

I don't remember Kluger (Highlander) having an I6 either, just V6 and 4 cyl variants.

Nor the caldina.....I4 and I4 turbo.....

They're physically stronger mostly because of the iron block. I mean yes there are design differences but material is a huge play here.

No, they're physically stronger because the internals can withstand over 1000hp with stock cast pistons, rod, stock headstuds, bearings, crank, etc... GE motor included

they dont. but its just a part of the article stating that its an end of one toyota period since those cars did sell pretty well.

Did Toyota also discontinue the 3SGTE or is it still around?
