My 2jz into s13 install pics.

[nani]

sorry, not that i dont like the 2jz or toyotas in general its just that i like to keep my stuff brand related. IDK why. At least its not an LS1 cause that ****s a joke.

I totally want to get a cressida and do a 2jz or even just a 7mgte. That would be cool.

If its toyota i keep it toyota, if its nissan, i keep it nissan. Thats just how i roll

white90esex you are a retard . (with all due respect) why would you diss the allmighty LS1

[goj_cloud]

Nice , hows the firewall clearance???

btw

LOL

[Imissmyturbo]

Some pics. (There is a lot of clearance for DP and plumbing!)

Strong work, Joel! Things are looking good with the 2jz. You probably don't remember but we chatted on AIM a few years back when I was still living in Philly about your RB25 swap. I too am approaching the point of ultimate frustration with my RB25 and I'm hoping to swap it out for a 2jz as well in the next few years. Keep us posted, especially with regard to the Tec II EMS and shifter mods you're going to have to make!

why so frustrated with teh RB?

[tastycakeman]

omfg that is f-ing scary.

[rowdogg03]

that turbo is huge!

[DarkStar]

damn man...theres more clearance in that than there is in my sc300 w/2j... *is jealous*

[rotorimp]

Nicely Done!!!!!keep the pics coming (just drink less when taking them-ha ha) If you have to explain to people "WHY" then they wouldn;t understand the answer anyway. Have you thought much about the exaust?

.... you are ****ing retarted

[Dookie]

Looks good man, I hope that thing has some torque and wont be a dyno queen!

Not a real fan of that swap, but looks good so far.

Hahaha, you NSR guys are all alike

Well then go ahead and hang yourself to do the world a favor. Its his car, shut the **** up. Oh, and if youve ever bought parts at autozone or other parts stores, you just went against your own creed.

lol at this thread

[gtrperformance]

I dont underdstand how you guys can hate on this swap. The 2JZ is probably the most bulletproof v6 to come out of Japan. Name another motor that consistantly makes over 1000whp..

I agree but there is another......RB26DETT.....and I think the GTO VR4 can produce the same. I've seen a few over there that claimed 1100+ HP. Love the 1 & 2JZ's. Easier to tune than the RB25.

[lucky7]

really a cool swap thats going to make some serious power.

for some reason though, cross-breeding cars makes me feel a tad uncomfortable. i cant really explain it. i can appreciate it, dont get me wrong. the dude that got my RB25 running, has a 98 LS1 with heads/cam in his S13 hatch. its a very cool/unique car, but its really not my style. certainly have to give you props for going through with it. if you're searching for tons of power, then you're on the right path, lol. my 25 put down 305whp and 315 torque on the stock turbo. im sure with your set-up, you could almost double that. haha, cool car man. very cool.

[Emperor_Tha]

are u going to upgrade the rear diff and axel, i have seen a few supra over 900whp that twisted thier whole rear diff

[RB20DETodd]

thats why you can stick to the bench wings on FWD cars.

[SketchyRollin564]

Nice swap. Ive never been a fan of inbreeding, but i gotta be honest, there IS two hybrid swaps that i would do. 2JZ into an S chassis, or 2JZ/SR/KA-T?/RB into an RX7.

Also, im a bit confused, some people are saying that they want to swap a 2JZ into an SC300. Apparently im wrong, but didnt they come stock with an n/a 2JZ, as well as the IS300?

[lucky7]

nope, you are correct.

[red boy]

I saw a show a few years ago, some guyz done a 2jz swap in the is300. They said that the bottom end was the same as the 2jz but the head wasn't. They took the head off of a 2jz. It made over 400hp easy with no mods.

[lofapoo]

2JZ > RB26, all day long. Not dogging the RB motors, I love them, but you can't beat the jz series motors.

The 2JZ is damn near garunteed to see 300k+ miles, well over 200k with average abuse :P

Besides, if something breaks, you can run down to the nearest Toyota parts carrier and buy them on the spot, as opposed to having to order them like RB parts.

Im so confused. How many different 2JZ's are there? Whats the difference between them?

An RB26 is an RB26. Sure there was a 6speed on the 34, and the 5 on the 32 and 33 but its all the same.

Mabey someobody could explain?

[redtop91]

There is no such thing as a different 2JZ. Just like any motor there are minor changes year by year.

[GEO]

If I didn;t go KA-T, I would have done a swap of that caliber.. ****ing nice.

[superDorifto]

I just bought an sc300 after my zenki was totalled, and ive done a bunch of research since then on the 2JZ motors....

the 2JZ-GTE and the NA 2JZ-GE share so much in common that its almost pointless to shell out extra for the turbo motor.

They have the same block, crank, and rods.

the NA has a higher compression ~10:1, because of different pistons, but a few companies offer different HGs that put it at a healthy 8.5:1

with the head gasket mod, and supporting fuel mods, an otherwise stock 2JZ GE can handle upwards of 500hp...the trannies that came with the motors on the other hand cannot...they start to go near the 400hp mark.

These motors are basically sitting in scrapyards, waiting to make big power...

If i wasnt already chest deep in my SR build, you can bet that my sc300 would already be turboed.

[SketchyRollin564]

How does that work? I dont get what compression or compression ratio is.

Also, the 2JZ-GE trannies cant hold over 350 whp, but is that solved by swapping it to a 2JZ-GTE twin turbo 6spd transmission? Does that bolt up directly to the 2JZ-GE motor?

[UNVMY240]

This post has open my eyes to the endless possibilities my 240 has to it. I never even thought of putting a yota motor in the 240. And for the people hating this swap, what about putting a domestic motor in an import, I dont see yall hating that?!?!? Anyways, I am looking to not follow the crowd for the most part and doing the lame sr20 swap. How boreing!!! Keep up the good work and post some more pics.

[SketchyRollin564]

^ what you talking about willis? Im not a fan of inbreeding, but if your gonna do it, atleast keep it with the same country.

Sure the LS1 is a great engine, and in the S chassis is really fast, but i was never ever a fan of it. I just think american engines in japanese cars are... dumb.

[eazye2000]

Only thing different I have noticed from the GE and GTE, is the exhaust manifold bolt pattern.

My friend has an IS300, and we would have had to order a special exhaust manifold because the bolt pattern was different.

But that's the only physical difference I've noticed. Not that I'm very observant or anything.. LoL

Keep us up to date!

[vguardado8901]

IM THINKING OF DOING THE SAME THING BUT MINE IS AN AUTO TRANS I FOUND A JDM 2JZ MOTOR AND AUTO TANS FOR A GOOOOD PRICE SO I WAS THINKING OF PUTTING BOTH IN MY 1989 240SX

[Piggy-Bank]

way to bring a thread back to life for no reason LOL.
