ScionGT35R

You could make that power just with pistons and rods. This build it's for much more so you could save a couple $$$ there. Also you will need a better clutch than that.

You guys (PTUNING) know what i'm doing

ScionGT35R

Spending a lot of money on a Scion and a lot of time in this forum like everyone else in here???

fox

You don't know the half of it. Just wait and see

ScionGT35R

It was just a joke.


Hope to see an 700whp here.

Good luck bro!!!!

fox

Thanks man. I didn't take it seriously. I knew you were joking. There is just more info to come with my build. LONG winter project! More to come later.

That A Boy Nick. I was hoping you would see this.

rhythmnsmoke

I need to hit the lottery already.

fox

Just work overseas like me!

rhythmnsmoke

^^I'm past the age limit....lol. Plus I don't think my career would like that to much as I'm one of 3 guys running the operation (on the technical side).

toyota_scion_tc

And me! Almost unlimited funds for the Scion!

toyota_scion_tc

Your not too old I have seen people over here in there 50's that started here at that age.

rhythmnsmoke

Not to old to actually do it, but to old to sign up. Besides, don't think the fam would have any of it. Son is not even 2 yet...lol.

i heard about this a long time ago i wanted it when my motor failed but it took them so long to get it going whats the pricE?

purplenitroustc

Its $4k

pretty pricy

rhythmnsmoke

It's on the money though. When you do the research based on the specs they have provided you, it's not over priced for what they are giving you. Factor in labor and all that, it's fair.

purplenitroustc

Never said it was overpriced

just pricy

If you took the block out and did it all yourself it would probably be like $3k rough guess
so to get a name behind it.. good deal

rhythmnsmoke

^^I think we have seen quite a few people on here attempt just that. Lets just put it this way....Save yourself the hassle, cause you know these guys won't cut the corners just to get to the glory prematurely. I have not seen a 2az build on here yet by someone, that was reliable and did not end up costing them more money to fix a mistake.

coryjames

ok lol my build is a little less then that only thing is im using darton sleeves

There's no such thing as a cheap built motor--at least not one that's running. Buying a set of rods and pistons and throwing it on in your driveway is not how you build a high performance motor, not even how you would rebuild a stock motor.

This engine package was in response to all those customers that have been asking us about a motor package for over a year now. There were many reasons why we never released the engine package earlier:

- We don't like to sell an expensive item such as a motor without first testing it out ourselves.
- Many performance engine components for the 2AZ-FE motor was not available 1 or 2 years ago. We had to pull some strings and invest some serious money to make everything happen.

It doesn't matter what components you have in the motor, if it wasn't machined, clearanced, assembled properly, you're just wasting your money. Buying a new set of standard size bearing just because you have a stock crank, without sizing the journals for the proper oil clearance is like shooting at a target with your eyes closed--if you're lucky you'll hit the mark, but more than likely you'll miss.

Everyone thinks they can do things cheaper or do it just as well themselve, but at the end they'll end up paying twice the cost to have it done right with twice the headache. And for those that are doing it themselves, if you don't know the torque specs of every bolt you're removing and installing on the motor or don't have a clue what vertical oil clearance or thrust end-play means, you need to take that motor to a professional to have it assembled.

In the end, it doesn't matter if you're installing a stock motor or a built motor, your mechanics is going to charge you the same to remove and install it. So if you forgot to tighten an oil sprocket nut or forgot to gap the rings, you're going to have to pay someone to take it out, fix the problem and put it all back in. Building a performance motor isn't cheap and there's a reason why.

With that said, now you know why not to many manufacturers takes the scion community seriously when it comes to developing performance parts. Everyone wants all these great products develop, but no one wants to pay for it. It cost money to make more power and if you can't afford it, you should just stick to an intake or exhaust or trade it in for a car with more power stock.
