I tried to buy the second one but he’s either sold it to the original owner from new or has kept it. Exceptionally rare those nowadays 

Yeah, it was cheap too. Shame Toyota didn't think to put the 20v blacktop in it at the factory though.

I've been watching some 1990s touring car races from Japan and there is a corrola ae101 with a 3sge 2ltr in it. The things crazy. Did they ever do a domestic model released to the public. 

"Racecarsdirect.com - 1994 genuine JTCC 'FET' Toyota Corolla Super Tourer" https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/106617/1994-genuine-jtcc-fet-toyota-corolla-super-to?fbclid=IwAR1h73TNA0lHfQMsF-qXK0iYQpKfhCVAbMosIe48wEuhJ-FNQy97rYJP7TI

Here's a ae corrola with a rev 3 3sge engine fitted lightly modded at around 190hp.

It makes the honda h22 211hp look slow and over complex.

With this and the b18 engine probly the only honda engine I'd both with.

It’s a shame Toyota didn’t put better engines in a lot of things like the SR- think we all agree it should have had at least a 5e. 
 

they never did that Corolla with that engine on the road unfortunately. I’ve got a thing for touring cars especially the super touring era. Always think about building some old Toyota with a 3sge beams or something

I've got 2 spare 3sge rev3 engines if you do. They are crazy powerful motors. Remind me of the second gen 4g63. 

I hear you on the SR engine. Like you say minimum should of been a 5e. So much more torque from that engine. 

Yeh I was watching the 1990s btcc with the siera cossworths Andy and ste going tooth and nail. Great to watch. Great racing.
