can some of the danes help me?
On another forum i found that in de Danish Touringcar Championship a Corolla T-Sport is competing.

The engine looks not as the 1.8 VVTL-i the T-Sport normally has, in fact, i don't recognize it at all as Toyota engine.

on the DTC website i (think i..) found some rules, but i can't understand them completely. Can someone translate them for me?

[color=green:7912f9ee51]Den maksimale slagvolumen for de anvendte motorer i Danish Touringcar Championship er 2.000 cm³. Motoren skal stamme fra en model, der som udgangspunkt har en slagvolumen på mellem 1.700 og 2.300 cm³. Motoren må have op til 6 cylindre, mens trykladning (turbolader eller kompressor) ikke er tilladt. Motoren skal være bygget på baggrund af en standardmotor, som indenfor et tidsrum af 12 sammenhængende måneder er blevet bygget i mindst 2.500 eksemplarer.[/color:7912f9ee51]

Only engines up to 2 litres, 6 cillinder engines allowed.

That's what i can understand, but then, do they say: an engine has to be manufactured at least 2500 times or does the engine need to be sold in that car to let the car meet it's homologation?

And then, even if i know what this means, i still don't know what engine it is Big Grin
It looks like a 2ZZ-GE to me, but it's impossible, because intake and exhaust are switched.

"Motoren skal være bygget på baggrund af en standardmotor, som indenfor et tidsrum af 12 sammenhængende måneder er blevet bygget i mindst 2.500 eksemplarer."

The engine has to be built on the base of a standard engine that in the span of 12 months has been built at least 2500 times.

I dunno what engine it is tho :/

I think it looks kinda like a 3S-GE. The water pump is driven by the timing belt and the exhaust header looks almost exactly like mine.
Although, the camcovers are a lot rounder on this engine, and it seems to have dizzyless coil-on-plug ignition.. Maybe a 3rd or 4th generation 3S..

that is what i also thought about, but since the Beams engine isn't homologated (no more then 2500 made in 4 years i guess Tongue) it can't be one.

And the 3S-GE was never sold in the E12, at least, not that i know Smile

hmmm, it looks like a 3S-GE indeed.

Strange, an engine in a car, that (afaik) was never sold in the E12...

Maybe the rules don't say anything about that the engine has to be produced in the car that it competes in..?
