It was claimed that someone called Johann Krause firm in 2011 and spoke to someone there that allegedly denied any involvement with Toyota or the 2JZ-GTE development when questioned about the publicized statements all over the internet. I never asserted or made any claims that Johann Krause did or didn't have involvement. I'm pointing out that whomever made such silly claims that Johann Krause didn't are full of shit. Johann Krause was acquired by Thyssenkrupp AG in 2006 so whomever stating that they called in or emailed back in 2011 couldn't have possibly spoke to anyone within Johann Krause firm as they had been bought out 5 years prior. So the evidence is very clear here.That’s not the same thing at all.
Where are these publications?
Feel free to provide a source that doesn’t repeat the same sentence I posted earlier.
You’re attacking me as a MKIV fanboy whose opinion wouldn’t change, but I’m here open to change my opinion yet you can’t even provide me a credible source.
1. We have many claims of such an involvement between Toyota with Johann Krause from many sources all over the internet.
2. We have historical evidence that Toyota has indeed sourced out their motors and various parts for co-development before and even have done so on several model Supras prior to even the A80 MKIV.
3. We have evidence that Johann Krause went out of business in 2006 that debunks the claim that someone spoke to them in 2011 and obtained a statement from them that they had no involvement.
4. We have evidence that Johann Krause engineered many other various auto manufactures motors and parts for years prior to 2006 and were indeed involved in many auto manufactures race engine developments especially in the early 90's and there are tons of news articles all about that history.
5. Not one person has shown evidence that substantiates that Toyota solely developed and engineered the 2JZ-GTE and most have known for years that the origin of the JZ line motors have been from the 3M GT motor from Yamaha.
Now then where is your evidence that supports what you think? Do you believe the 2JZ-GTE was solely developed and engineered by Toyota? Then please by all means nows your chance to prove it. You have an entire forum that is watching and eagerly awaiting these answers.
The floor is yours. I'll be waiting for your response. Make sure you do your homework first.
