if im not mistaken thats Toyota's only v12, the 1GZ-FE. I got SOOOO close to buying one with the 4 speed trans to go in my land cruiser. MY dream build is an engine just like this in a cruiser. FJ55 perhaps.

tough call. money is no object would be twin turbo to 600-700 hp for sleeper heaven. Were I to do it myself I would leave it stock. Its a PERFECT fit for the landcruiser:

Low revving

HUGE torque at low revs

overbuilt, it even has 2 ecu's (one for each bank) so if one craps out you still have an I6.

I think BMW did the 2 ECU thing the their V12 as well. I'm sure the 1GZ-FE is more reliable, though...

its lovingly referred to by the Toyota people as "the handbuilt anchor"

In 2011, he had planned on taking the V12 Supra to the Texas Mile , but had to postpone the trip twice . I don't think he ever went.

I really hope he's ok! I forgot about that incident.

As cool as the V12 Supra is, my favourite of all is what I know as just the Top Secret Supra. Has been hard to find much info or vids of the car, surprising as the car was in Forza no less so you'd think it would inspire people with the right connections to delve deeper. Here it is! <3

WHY CAN'T I LINK IMAGES? Pic upload not working either, and when I paste the link here it immediately disappears??

Burn rubber forever <3
