Yup the gs300, sc300, and supra non turbo have the 2jzge engines. Only minor differences between them such as intake routing and the addition of vvti in the later years.

So you are asking if there is a lot of performance upgrades for 2jzge engine?? That is a tough one to answer.

and the IS300 has the same engine as well, fyi

and when they say SC, GS and supra non turbo, really, only the GS300, SC300 and non turbo supra do. as well, the SC came in a 400 as well, and later dates of GS came in a 400 too

so really, only the ones with 300 on them, lol

the 2JZ engine was first introduced in the Aristo which is the japanese GS300 before it was put in the Supra.. so dont let people say "its a Supra engine" cuz its an "Aristo engine"

Like some others have said, exhuast, intake, cleaning out the engine (seafoam and different types of cleaners), matience, and after all of that you start getting into the more expensive stuff. I think some nitrous would be cool. I have seen it a couple times. Just make sure your car is mechanically sound. The better the maintenence, the more power, and the better gas mileage you will get. Also, I just want to let you know that you wont be making very much power on a NA motor. XS power makes a turbo kit for a reasonable price. Might want to look into some turbo action (but it aint cheap)!
