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 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

The only swap you should consider is a 2.5L 1jz-gte. It is also a twin turbo motor. You will need a R-154 tranny for it as well.
