What parts did Toyota change to get the BHP increase from the 138bhp UK GT up to 178bhp on the jap SSII version?
The reason i ask is as i have the SSII & want to buy some engine mods but as i have to get GT parts i don't want to buy bit's that maybe worse than Toyota used to up the BHP to 178bhp.

The head, no emissions, the octane, and the VVTI

SS-II = 3rd gen 3S-GE. Which have no VVTI.

Alex-UKSC, UK GT's came with 3S-GE's, which is the same engine on your SS-II.

yeah i know they have the same engine but what did they do to up the BHP in the Jap version ?

Thanks

UK-Spec GT's have 173BHP, not the 138BHP you mentioned earlier. I imagine the JDM SS-II's have a slightly more aggressive ECU to take advantage of the octane they have over there.

Ah superb so any GT performance parts will not screw anything

I was told the UK GT was alot less BHP so my bad
