Century. Big arse Jap limo type car. Kind of like a Nissan President. I think the name of that sorta gives away the inclination of the car

that would be such a great engine to put into a 67 crown, then ride it on airbags...

Is it just me or does 200kw not sound all that impressive for a 5 litre V12?

Just for a bit more info lads,
Toyota actually developed the arrangement of this motor as a F1 engine. Since the banning of V12's in F1, this design had laid stagnant. The century utilises this design in a 5 L engine, but is internally capable of much much more(obviously).
The F1 engine looks to be de-tuned slightly and put in the Next Supra if it ever gets built.

The 1GZFE is also all alloy! The noise is someone is trying to cram one into a Celica.

As far as I can tell, it is very similar in design to the 1UZ-FE...I've known about these things for years (even mentioned them here in another thread) but, unfortunately, your chances of getting one here are basically nil, as are the chances of getting parts for it.
(Damn shame, that! )

you could make parts, or fabricate adaptions with existing parts off the 1uz
