Yeah the TT 2.5 has more power, but the V8 is all smooth and with the torqueness.
What do you mean what to look for? As in wear and likely problems? I can't think of any off the top of my head. 1UZ-FE is pretty solid.

Yeah i realised that after i posted the link, might be useful though to to look at the different spec models and there standard equipment and make sure someones not trying to pass something off as a higher spec model. In my time on toymods I can't really remember any negative posts about the 1UZ-fe motor in terms of reliability.
Have you checked out the soarer forums you might get a quicker reply there and more UZZ31 owners. I think its ALSC or something like that.
