LS1 or nothing.

Seriously though, I owned a Z32. You don't want that engine over the VQ. Aftermarket support is better for the VQ and it's a more reliable engine. I'm not saying the VG30DE(TT) is a bad engine it's just that the VQ is better in every way I can think of.

The TT Z32's didnt cost over 40k for nothing. I personally would rather put in an RB26DETT. it is Nissan's answer to the 2jzgte

the VG30DETT and the RB26DETT came out in 89. the 2JZGTE came out in 93.
toyota had a few years to to upgrade their motor.

if the VG30DETT came out with T28's instead of T25/T2's and 550CC injectors like the supra comes with the Z engine would be highly coveted. instead you can get one for under a grand these days. the cheapest TT supra motors i've seen are 3500 bux.

Z32 comes with beefyass internals from the factory. it would be a good swap if your going all out with GT3071's or GT3076's. but other than that just build the VQ
