1JZ weight

[s14eva1]

I've search but could not find accurate info on the exact weight of a 1JZ motor....anyone know those specs?

its lighter then a 2jzge, i know that much. It made the front of my other SC raise 1in from the swap

 

[bobiseverywhere]

i dont think anybody has really bothered to check

 

[Dirgle]

Bigaaron should have a vague idea, PM him and see.

 

[s14eva1]

well I'll try and ask him...I'm hopping its under 500lbs

Are you sure? Why would it be lighter?

Thats hoping for a lot, it has an iron block, which doesn't help the weight factor. If I had to guess, and this is only a GUESS, I'd say closer to 800lbs.

Smaller motor, its only 2.5 liters ::dead horse::

but add 2 turbos and everything associated with them would probably even out Iwould say

So? It's not like it's you lost 2 cylinders or something. I don't think the difference in the crank and rods really would make it too much lighter or enough to raise your car up an inch.

It was a joke... I thought someone would LOL?

Im not exactly sure why, but it did make the front raise a bit due to being lighter.

 

[OneJoeZee]

I'm still finding that hard to believe.

my freight bill was 625 lbs with trans and ecu

It's because Homer's wife isn't in it....now that's a joke...LOL.:biglaugh:

thats what I thought....the tranny alone weighs around 120-125 lbs

so motor alone without turbo's(in my case) should be under 500lbs

 

[bobiseverywhere]

The tranny Dry Weighs 120lbs

I had to ship one not that long ago

R154 i think is heavier then the A340 or pretty close.

It should be quite a bit lighter then the 2jz because it is 2" shorter maybe out of 20" at best 10% lighter then the 2jz.

 

[Tojo]

R154 trans (no fluid, clutch, pressure plate): 115lbs

how different is this motor? the block uses some of the same accessories , I believe the outer dimensions are the same except height of the block. the head is very similar dimensionally. I do not see much reason for more than 1 - 2 percent difference on the long block. The main weight difference here would be when you are comparing a turbo to non turbo engine. I would think 1jzgte almost equal to 2jzgte in weight. 1jzgte should be what ? 40 70 lbs heavier than the 2jzge?

I have to agree with joe and ToyoHabu.
I've taken apart 1kz and they are so much like the 2 it's scary. at absolute most, with the smaller turbos and shorter crank and maybe if there's a few pounds off the head and intake i think at MOST it could only be 40-50 lbs lighter than a 2j
