Question 2jzgte ENGINE SWAP
If i was wanting to do a 2jzgte twin turbo swap in to a 1998 - 2005 Lexus GS, does it matter if it was if it was a GS300 or GS400? Should i be going for a VVTI twin turbo or just the normal 2jzgte twin turbo? Can you pls help me find out this information a.s.a.p?

You'll want the VVTi version. This was offered as an engine option over in Japan...so most of everything should just drop right in.

It wasnt on option, they all had VVTI 99+. With that said, can we drop them in our gs300? Can we use the supra motor from japan or the gs?
