Classic Super Engine- 2JZ-GTE

2JZ-FTE

I had introduced the GTR BR26 engine before, but at that area also has a classic engine- TOYOTA 2JZ-GTE.I just can say this engine was born in a wrong time, which result in it has to under the shallow of BR26. If we want to know the 2JZ-GTE, first of all need to introduce the Supra

First Generation Supra

The first Supra is just a kind of family car, without any powerful engine and do not have any relationship with sport. 

Second Generation Supra

The second generation Supra still use the same structure and engine- a 2.5 liters line six engine with 110 horsepower (82Kw). It is easy to know, the Supra can not be accepted by market.

Third Generation Supra

Fortunately,  the TOYOTA engineers made the third generation Supra equipped with 7M-GE engine which has 200 horsepower (149Kw). This generation is has much higher performance than the before three generations. So, the story is coming. At the same time, Nissan GTR came out which hold the main racing car market. Supra need to another evolution in order to get the market back. 

Forth Generation Supra

In order to compete with GTR, a absolute new engine is needed, the 2JZ-GTE is coming. 

2JZ-GTE

Maximum  power 280 hp (206kw) / 5600rpm

Maximum torque 435 N.m/ 4000rpm

It has the same style and cylinder number with RE26, the  parameter also similar with it. 

The same point with before, the competitor is so strong. Supra does not take too many people attention.  But the engine's structure can be called classic.

After nearly 30 years, this engine is still widely accepted by many super car players.In many car racing, you still can see the 2JT- GTE act as an important engine for many winners.
