Yes it does have mivec, or a form of variable valve timing, hence the power difference from the gt and gts.
its not mivec, it has short and long runners in the intake plenum that open up at different points in the rpm range.

You need to do some research on your own car. As these guys stated, the 3G does not have variable valve timing, period. You're getting confused with the special manifold that are on GTS trims (And the 03+ GT Spyder), which is a simple set of butterfly valves that are actuated according to RPM flunctuation. Old tech that's been used by Toyota since the 4A-GE engines been out during the mid-80's.
