Well i bought the 2jzgte today and so it begins .
Well as you all know i was debating wether to get a 1jz or a 2jz, well today i made up my mind and i bought the engine from JDM engine corp . I researched them on google and couldnt find anything good or bad about them so im hoping i dont get screwed. Here is the ebay link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT. I dont plan to put the engine in yet . My plans are to do a leak down test , compression test dry and wet so ican make sure the engine is in top shape .After i will ride around on the stock twins for a bit till i get all my parts to go single. I have a dd so this is going to be a good project i dont know when it will begin or end .
so far i have bought :
----------------------
aristo 2jzgte engine ,harness,ecu,auto trans
2jzgte water pump
sc400 drive shaft
still need :
--------------------
dr tweak harness
2jzget oil pump
2jzgte timing belt , tensioner , and idler pulley ( im going with gates performance timing belt )
2jzgte gasket set
sc400 output flange of the tranny
stock 2jzgte fan
stock smic and piping
boost controller
turbo timmer
Safc2
supra oil return lines and drill the stock sc300 pan
mybe get :
----------------------
usdm cams
usdm injectors
usdm twins
i plan to do everything myself except the harness , i dont feel like i have enough patience and time to do the harness , let the DR take care of that .
if you guys see anything else i need lmk .
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE THAT HAS EVER CONTRIBUTED TO THIS FORUM ON THE 2JZGTE SWAPS .

That's exciting, I almost ordered the exact same thing but decided to buy a new SC instead because I wanted manual. I'm glad I got this car though because it's so mint GL to you bro, post lots of pictures!

As with anything, a good motor can be described as many things according to those guys distributing them.
Just do some preventative maintenance while you're in there. It'll save headaches, tears, and cases of beer for when you really need it all.
Well wait, you never need to cry or have headaches.
