1987 Twin Turbo

It probably has the 1ggte 2.0 twin turbo engine. that would be my guess as it doesnt look like a 7m or 1jz.

it's a 3.0L straight 6
i will take more pics and post them
different angles of the engine bay, the back of the car
this car confuses the shit out of me. lol

P.S. the only thing the previous owner said about the car was that it has a J-spec TT engine.

Thats weird man. It doesn't look like any engine I've ever seen in a Supra. You might be able to run the VIN number to find out what the engine code is.

That is correct.

How can it be correct if its 3.0L? im guessing its either a speacil edition made only in japan that got imported privatly, or someone put the HKS twin turbo kit on it with decals...at least i think its HKS that makes the kit..kno someone dose..

well actaully it is the 1ggte. was the last of the g serise motors. you have got quite a rare car my man. Tho the stock hp out put isnt as much as the 7mgte. It dose have 2 CT-12 turbos. Fix it up man and let her rip!!

It's not a 3.0L it's a 2.0L.

no it's not
I own the car
I think I know better if it's a 2.0L or a 3.0L

Really? I don't think you know better...

i'm going to appoligize right now
i'm sorry man
when i got the car i assumed it was a 3.0L because all the other ones I saw were 3.0L so I got it in my head that it said 3.0L on the engine
that's the only reason I was so stubborn about the whole 3.0L thing
I figured I know better because I can see it on my engine but I realized this and checked my engine and there are no markings
so as far as I know it is a 2.0L then which sucks
when I bought the car I thought I was getting a 3.0L
any suggestions as to whether I should fix up this engine or just do a complete engine swap?
and the other thing I'm wondering is lets say that I swap with a 7MGTE, can I keep my turbos? I love my turbos and will be reluctant to do a swap if it means I'm left with none or a single turbo
