Its not the same sort of engine as a 1GGTE though, it does make a heap of power, its just that it doesn't have to be worked hard to get it. Thats their market though...

Err... Worked hard? There's a reason why I'm always bouncing off the limiter. When you take your 1G to 7,200rpm you'll understand why. The 1G definately doesn't strain in any way to reach the PITA limiter. And this is an engine designed in the 80's.
Any modern DOHC engine should be the same. Hell, even the Camry's 1MZ-FE goes that high, and that engine is definately tuned for torque.

Ford bring out a high performance sedan, and some of you guys complain that...its too heavy (supra) doesnt rev out enough (um its a big 6 with shitloads of tourque so it doesnt need to).

The difference is that Toyota realised their mistake and went to extreme lengths (like hollow carpet fibres) to get the MkIV Supra lighter.
And if you say revs don't count then you obviously don't push your car hard enough.
Fuck the torque, that's what the turbo is for.
