Toyota 2JZ-GTE
The Supra 2JZ-GTE was the backbone of high-performance imports in the industry's formative years. Rock-solid internals opened the door to big power numbers without touching the bottom end. The 2JZ was an eye-opener to doubtful domestic fans as it powered Pro RWD cars to 6.60s at more than 200 mph. Today, the 2JZ still delivers the goods, making an easy and streetable 450 whp, and full builds challenging 1,200 whp. - Kenji Sumino, GReddy Performance Products

Toyota 4A-GE
As a pre-cursor to Honda's VTEC, Toyota's 4A-GE was undeniably one of the best engines of it's time. Like Honda's VTEC, horsepower was always achieved up top in the rev range while 'torque' (what little of it there is) has always been a bit of an afterthought. With TVIS (Toyota Variable Induction System), there are two versions of the naturally aspirated "16 valve" 4A-GE here in the U.S. Aptly named "Bluetop" and "Redtop," with these assorted motors appeared in both FWD and RWD Corollas, FX16s, MR2s, as well as the Geo Prism. Additionally, there's a supercharged version as well that was offered here in the US in select MR2s.
The Bluetop came with lower compression pistons, low impedance (saturated) injectors and a large-port head. The Redtop on the other hand flexed a multitude of improvements namely larger crank journals and wrist pins, higher compression pistons (10.3:1 as opposed to 9.4:1,) bigger, high impedance injectors and the introduction of under-piston oil squirters. Additionally, Toyota decided on a "small port" head with slightly less aggressive cams to match for better mid-range torque.
It should be noted that after Stage 2 the price of admission is about the same as the popular 20 Valve "Blacktop" swap. The dyno charts will be nearly identical except that you'll get an almost brand-new/rebuilt motor for the same price. - Bob W., Drift Office
