haha i remember changing out my diff for a supra diff in the driveway of a friend's house.. we swapped the cressida 3.9 ring gear over to the supra diff and used an electric stove to heat it to get it on lol
didn't know the rod length on a 3.4L stayed the same. so the center to center is identical to stock? well i guess if you're moving the pin instead that makes sense. i assumed the opposite
i found this too, which may or may not help your decision. i don't know if this calculator is accurate, but i found mine to be within a degree or two chicken scratching on the back of receipts.

according to that calculator there is probably going to...
with rough calculations there IS a rod angle difference of about 12-14% and about a 2-3% difference in crank angle (based off what info i could find on 1j/2j rod lengths) when comparing this long rod 1jz vs a standard 1jz. this will decrease the stress on some parts and on cyl walls somewhat...
and it's not just the bore that is changed on a 2j block to achieve 3.4L. if it were that simple everybody would have a 3.4L. rod length and stroke (as well as bore) is changed.
theoretically even if you used 90mm bore pistons in a 2j, you would only achieve 3.28L
the same theoritical 90mm...
a 2j block with (assuming unmodified 1jz crank) is basically a taller 1j with no difference in stroke of that of a standard 1j
if you keep bore on the 2j and 1j the same in this case, and the only thing changing between the two is the crank, the only thing you're changing is the length of the...
finally got a chance to upload some installed pics of the jdm headlights i picked up. not the greatest but you get the idea
these have foglights built in unlike the USDM ones
showing off my "green" engine! it's been averaging a good 20mpg lately
car is officially 4x4 status again...
1JZ was stock at the time, on the way to vegas a few years back. was still pulling, but not a lot. snapped the pic shortly before i slowed down
3.9 rear end, i don't remember rpm, but close to 6k if my memory serves me right

highly recommend supporting the hood latch with something. mine cracked at the base (where it mounts to the rad support) because the original bracket has been removed. i later put in aluminum supports to hold the latch sturdy.
it's a good car. would i buy it? no. it's a great car, don't get me wrong, i just prefer a minimalist approach when coming to true sports cars. not something anemic like a lotus, but the 2300lb 400hp TVR Sagaris with no abs and no trac :)
