Default 1G-GTE twin turbo Toyota 2.0l

What year was this car produced? with the 1G-GTE engine? (2.0l)

Was this engine ever in the states?

According to Autotrader.com, nope, they only had 2.4l 4 cyl engines at 105hp, and the Celica Supra had a 2.8l v6 at 150hp

AFAIK, it never came it any North American models

It came in the Soarer, Celica Supra, Crown, Cressida, and Altezza frames.

We never got the Crown. The Celica/Supra and Cressida used M series engines over here. The Soarer had a 2JZ.

Additional info.

ya I talked to him about it, I didnt care for his price on new pistons, I was hoping this car was offered in the US, and you could just go to schucks/etc and pick up some cheap pistons for it. But doesnt look that way.
