Something doesn't add up. He has a 2000 GS4 but they put the SRT TT setup on a 3UZ-FE 4.3?

haha maybe they put in a new engine too?

flipside909

Well it's just like his 4Runner, he put the TRD S/C for the 2UZ-FE that was originally designed for the Tundra. Crazy stuff!

TLW

he was saying something about doin that to a new project possibly the GS

i hope Ted chimes in

It doesnt have the 4.3, it is the engine that came out of the car.....just built. I watched that car go through every stage of the build up. There are a few little things cosmetically that I didnt care for, otherwise, its a great set up.

Stay tuned, I got someting for ya'll coming up soon!!
