I'm building a 1.5JZGTTE and need a little help.
 

Hello everyone, I'm new to this site and need some help? I'm currently building a 1.5JZGTTE to put in my 1987 targa. If I use the stock pistons that came in the 2JZGTTE motor how much power will they handle. Would it be wise to simply use aftermarket rods and pistons now while everything is apart or will these brand new but stock rods and pistons do the job....On a side note my build goals are a reliable 600-700whp car.
Thanks in advance,

A stock 2j's internals will handle your goals. I would rebuild it anyhow just to be safe.

BTW It's 1jz-gte and 2jz-gte. There is no gtte.

There will be when the custom exhaust is built and two turbos are sitting on the side. Any idea what these pistons and rods will take as a maximum with proper tuning?

Someone made over 1,000rwhp on stock internals. I all depends on your engines condition...
