Difference in '92 and '93 3.0V6
Scouring through a shop manual for my 4runner, I saw that I had about 150hp. While that's not great, it's more than I'm used to, and it does what I want it to.
But! The '93 and up years has a whopping 180hp! Who can tell me the differences in these, is it just ECU tuning and a little compression, er what?

I know that in Europe Toyota changed the 3VZ-E from 12V 150 hp to 24V 180 hp. That was '92-'93 I believe.
I know because I looked it up. And since I have a '90's 4Runner..
Hope my supra swap will solve that problem

well Crap! I'll have to make another run to the library to look up the specs again!
If I remember right, the '93's had a little more compression, like 9.6:1 instead of 9:1, and I figured the ECU did the rest. I'll report back what I find.

They've all got the same 150hp. See for you self at Edmunds. That was the whole reason for designing a new engine. The 3vze is just a turd. That's why people spend money on it to have a little more power.
