You're also wrong about the na motor. It's not built the same. The 2jz-gte has oil squirters that cool the pistons, and the 2jz-ge does not.

Well I seen that on another forum about the valvetrain. yeah I forgot about the oil squirters same as the 7m's but the parts still can take the 1000hp in the 2jz-GE right.

Only the crankshaft and the block can for certain. In the 2jz-ge, the connecting rods, pistons and the entire head are all different. I would not assume or tell anyone else that those parts are good to 1000hp if I wasn't sure...and I'm definitely not sure at all. In fact, I really doubt it.
To me, the entire n/a Supra is a just a poor de-tuned shadow copy of a TT. I've been very consistent with this advice: If you want the performance of a TT, then sell your n/a and get a TT. You'll save a lot of money. Nearly everything in an n/a except the body itself is a de-tuned, much weaker version of what you'd get in the TT. In other words, it's not just the 2jz-ge pistons, connecting rods, and head that sucks...it's the entire braking system and the rest of the driveline (transmission and differential), ecu, ignition system, suspension, etc., etc.. *shrug* The n/a is a paper tiger...it's just for show. If you want to tell folks you have a Supra and impress girls that know nothing about cars, your n/a will do the job just fine. If you want to go fast and stop fast, safely, sell your n/a and get a TT. Just mho.
