Most of the GTE bottom parts are interchangable between supra/aristo. Timing belt is the same as well. If you have a specific list of parts you can just cross them on *******.

i can help you get any Genuine toyota parts you need. Direct from Japan.

I have found some to be the same but other not. The water pump for the gs come with the wrong back housing and the supra bolts up but alt bolt size is diffrent sizes. I am also thinking the vvti is some of the problem.

Do you mean the GE vs GTE not Supra vs GTE (unless you mean NA Supra). So you've tried your GS/GE water pump on the GTE/Aristo motor? Yeah I've test fitted that, and the front half bolts to the block fine, but the back half of the GE/GS is 1/2" shorter so the heater tube doesn't line up perfect, and the lower t-stat neck on the GE/GS has smaller bolt holes and is a different length and angle.

I'm using the GS/GE heater tube and t-stat neck on GTE block and GTE waterpump. They fit ok with a little modding.

The Supra water pump and VVTI Aristo water pump are the same, unless you are talking about the Hydro Fan Water pump, ditch that for a GS/Aristo swap and use your electrical fans..

^^^^^ I don't know why it beeped out the link to a parts info site? I know they had issues with toyota and putting up diagrams, but they removed them and just have part numbers now. Does that affect CL that much to where it isn't allowed to be shared?

I went to a Toyota dealer parts department an got belts, gaskets etc... Easier just to do that

Also, if you don't already have a throttle cable I have a brand new one if you're interested, just PM me...

Rande

So what throttle cable can I use. Also will the timing belt and cam seals work from a gs to the aristo.

supra, supra, and supra.

Or yes, the GS/GE belt and cam seals will also fit, same stuff.

Some use Supra, some use a camry one which I have ....

I've seen the camary talked about before. Is it any shorter than the supra?

The supra fit great on mine but could be 1 or 2 inches shorter I had to clamp it back under the plenum so it wouldn't hump up over the motor and look out of place.

That's pretty much how it looks with the camry one, I was actually able to use my stock one ... Don't ask me how bc I was at work while that was being done lol

Why would you direct him to go this route ? An guessing games by going to a Toyota parts department ????? Why do that an pay for shipping from Japan and have to wait for it ... Bro jump in a car head to the dealer (parts department ) an get what you need
