You need to give more info. First what year GS, second they put 2j's on the GS not 1j's like in the SC's.

Hope that helps,

I don't ever recall seeing a gs3 1st or 2nd gen with the 1jz motor swap.Thats usually done to sc's. You usually see a 2jz-gte swap in a gs3 1st gen and 2nd gen.

i believe 1jz is all around cheaper to swap and fix up, but no i have never seen a 1jz swap in a 1GS or 2GS or even a 3GS (couldnt see that happening but who knows)
