2TZ-FZE 2.4L. Even with the supercharger its still a gutless engine in a van.

do the other cars realise its a race?

i used to get our shitty old work van sideways too - high top, long wheelbase hiace with double wheels on the back and a 3L putting out 43hp.

these things are puss, if you want a van that pulls get a 1kz-te!

Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.
