The is300 engine is actually 2JZ-GE as compare to the supra which is 2JZ-GTE.
like Guru said, the IS has the 2JZ-GE... he said it has the NA supra engine.

Toyota really should have imported the Altezza instead of this IS300 thing. Even the 2ZZ-GE/6mt equipped Corolla XRS may be quicker.

Plus I-6 >V-6.

lol it's not the same engine man....dont know why people keep saying it is.....

The IS300 5 speed I raced at the track only pulled a 15.6 against me. He was running mid 15's all night. He did have NOS, but it was either empty, or not hooked up cause he didn't use it.
