    a 22r-e will be an improvement over the 21r-c.. regarding the ceramic clutch and TRD cams - you're wasting your money. it is, and will always be, a truck engine. 22r-e + zorst will sound nice and go nicely. if you want more power than that, save for a conversion

    22RE was 86kw I think, heaps of torque though. About $300 for a custom Crow Cam to suit I think. Apart from that, I wouldn't spend the money, not when you can get a 1G for 1kish. That's the way to go, for sure.

    get a turbo kit for it, motec ecu, staged injectors with another fuel rail.
    You'll want lightened pulleys, chromolloy flywheel, ported head.. that should do you for starters
