2JZ GTE in 1984 Supra

Mk2Raph · 04-28-2011, 04:52 PM

Hi guys, just bought my first Supra, a 1984 with stock engine. I looking to make the big step, the 2JZ Step. I heard about Norbie's Project and it looks like the 2JZ is a good solution for my mk2. I would like to have your comments about this swap. I have a lot to learn before doing this.
Thx

expensive.

just make sure you have a good financial standing. i was looking at a mkiv before i bought my miii and i saw the huge price difference. but i still do believe the 2jzte is a powerful engine.

I know it could be costy but i'll try to do all by myself. But im not sure about all the fitting... I heard i had to change and/or modified the crossmember.. A lot of job down there!

It's a big job. but it's a very good engine.. you are looking at $2,000 for the engine.. but you will need to get the trans, the wiring with it.. all in all it will be like $7,000 to do the job...
