2JZGE Swap....not 2JZ-GTE

AlexSchuSupra · 10-31-2009, 02:38 AM

Ok so I searched the forum and i didn't find anything on swapping a 2JZGE into an mk3 suppra. I have a N/A 87 Supra and I found a 2JZGE for 500 bucks. I'm not ready to go turbo yet....not enough money so I was wondering what is involved in this swap and is it realistic?

Two big things you'll have to deal with during this swap. You'll have to get a 2jz bellhousing for the w58 transmission if that's the trans you have. Then you'll have to do a wiring swap for the 2jz engine control system which isn't easy. I've always wanted to try to retrofitting the 7m engine control system to control a jz engine, but i haven't the time to try it.

This isn't counting w/e little things you'll need like clutch, flywheel, cooling system parts, and misc. sensors you'll need. Have fun with that.

Possible 2jz lower block swap in the works if I can't rebuild the 1j. So troublesome.
