I say this because I can only assume that the typical engine-swap would at least include a downpipe, more than likely a catback and possibly a FMIC and/or y-pipe
Oh and I forgot... the 1jz sounds like sex

yeah but its a jdm aristo 2jz, arent there some major differences in the electronics and fuel delivery compared to the supra, also the turbos are different, i read that you have to change a lot of things to get the aristo engine to work with the soarer platform

Its a JDM 2jz, completely different wiring harness than the USDM setup... has smaller injectors, smaller turbos, and lower duration cams
it also has an automatic tranny with it... let's not get confused over the differences here...
good deal imo nonetheless

knock sensors require shielded cable. the job normally is not as easy as plain wiring as that shielded wire also needs to be grounded if i remember correctly. also i believe that ground is tied in eslwhere in the wiring. So.....if you do a hack job on it the wire picks up engine vibration rather than engine knock and retards the ignition timing via ECU. there is your problem/ hopefully a better answer. Not totally hard to fix but one less problem you may want to introduce in an engine swap.

Ah yes, I see that one too
A JDM 2jz-gte pulled from a SupraTT would prolly have similar if not exactly the same wiring setup as a USDM 2jz-gte install in regards to the SC300 (deriving this idea from the assumption that a JDM 2jz from a supra would bolt right in, plug and play, with a usdm supra chassis)
Vudoc, thank you for your input
How can one avoid having to extend the knock sensor wires? I'm just not sure how to do it? Do the knock sensor wires plug into the engine harness or something? (therefore you could unplug them and use the sensors and wires from the stock 2jz-ge)

And not everything is the same between the JDM and US Supra TT motors. The turbos are different, as well as the injectors and a few other things.ECU's are probably not interchangable, due to the MAP vs. MAF systems. Though, most of the wiring should be the same, but dont quote me on that

In regards to the wiring extending issue with the 1jz, I once found a few companies that sold a wiring extension. I believe Fields make one and then some guy made a better one because people were complaining about the Fields one.
