    1jzgte pistons in 2jzge

    Wouldn't the pistons not reach tdc if i used 1jz rods... I know its probably wiser to use 2jzgte pistons but I dont want to spend money on them :p. I will be doing this in the spring and I will post the results! If anyone has a set of 2jzgte pistons and rods for sale let me know via PM.

    Lexus 2jzge swap?

    the vvti throttle body is electronic so no, if you want to use an older sc tb you need to use the sc y pipe too. You could just weld a q45 flange on the y pipe and use the q45 tb like I'm doing.

    Lexus 2jzge swap?

    yes I recommend buying a megasquirt 3 kit its the easiest and fastest way to get the swap running with vvti. I'm using megasquirt 2 its a bit more of a challenge I'm not 100% sure if my vvti will work rite away, but I plan on getting 2jzgte cams and cam gears later on eliminating it.

    Lexus 2jzge swap?

    easier yes, better no because if you build a standalone you'll be set for tuning ;) also the obd1 2jzge use a distributor that gets in the way of turbo setups

    Lexus 2jzge swap?

    don't tell the man there's not point, hes asking how to get it in not if its a good idea. Maybe he just wants the 2jz? The sound alone is worth the swap and the reliability, on the plus side once you get it all figured out replacement is300 motor is cheap or you can add 2jzgte pistons and rods...

    Lexus 2jzge swap?

    I did it, you will want to ditch the is300 ecu since it has an immobilizer and run a standalone (megasquirt is great on a budget) or find a aristo ecu with out the immobilizer and repin it. The second thing you need to address is the fuel rail, either swap one from an older sc or get the drill...

    Mk3 Supra restoration project!

    Back from the dead here is what I've got done in the last year. Ditched the whole 7m route, did some undercoating and rust preventative stuff, got hsd coil overs, replaced lots of broken shit and the differential and been working on lots of body work. I'm doing a 2jzge VVTI Na-T swap. I just got...

    Need help with wiring information 98 2JZGE VVTI from supra into 87 mk3 supra

    I didn't say you can't, I said you cant run a VVTI motor off 7m electronic as the 7m cps will not fit the vvti head. If I wanted to do that I would need a 93 sc300 head. A wise supra tuner told me this "running a 2jz off 7m electronics is the equivalent to powering a space shuttle with coal."

    Need help with wiring information 98 2JZGE VVTI from supra into 87 mk3 supra

    no offense but that's a load of shit, you're not going to cause a fire by splicing a dash plug and maybe tapping one start signal from the fuse box. You can do it clean if you take your time, I have lots of rubberized heat shrink as well as spools of wiring loom me and my friend did a really...

    Need help with wiring information 98 2JZGE VVTI from supra into 87 mk3 supra

    has anyone not done the swap on their own? If I figure this out I will make a write up as I don't believe you should be paying some jackass wiring shop $900 and waiting a few weeks to get it done.. Plenty of wiring write ups are available in the 240sx community its a shame everyone is trying to...
