89mm overbore is pretty common on the T-series to take them out to almost 2L, but I'm not sure it would be a great idea with the higher combustion pressures of a turbocharged engine because of the reduced wall thickness.
Any particular reason that you want a 3TG? They are getting pretty long in the tooth...

well the other options are the 4agze or 4ag 20 valve, or the sr20/ca18. The first two don't produce as much torque and the latter two are a headache to put in/get running?
your opinion appreciated.

I couldnt tell you what they go for, but I assume they wouldnt be as cheap as they used to be.
But I might be able to help you out with everything you need to put one in a TA22.
Engine, ECU, Box, Tail shaft, modified crossmember, etc etc

Taking it out to 2 liters isn't going to allow a great deal of strength for much boost.

but leaving it at 1.8 litre with the right set up will produce good torque?

How do the "3T" and "4T" GTE's vary.
It was my understanding that the 4T had just been overbored and used a larger crank to achieve the 2.1L displacement. Of course other changes were made in order to get it to 500+hp as well.

i heard that they make the car handle like a commadore, and we dont want that now.
dont get me wrong they blitz in a straight line, but they are pretty heavy for a lil car. it'd be like driving a prawn trauller

if you think a 1g is heavy... u'll blow up when you here me say we have decided to go with the 1jz!!! just a lot of suspension work and weight reduction in front and increase in rear... should be right.

With my experiances with 3T-GTE's i'd say go with an SR20-DET.
It'll handle alot more power on standard internals, and cause you a lot less grief. If I didn't have so much 3T-gte stuff i'd have gone with an SR20 this time, or a 1uz. I've wasted so much time and money on 3T's...
