2jz-gte swap

[franger91]

Hey guys,

I heard the later model mkIII's have the same engine mounts for a 2jz-gte. Is this true? and has anybody done this swap?

I would imagine there would be alot of electrical work that would need to be done and new ecm? How would the wiring work?

I ask because I actually prefer the look of the mkIII's to the mkIV's and ive been looking for an mkIII with a bad motor so i wont spend much on it seeing that i will just swap it out anyway.

Last question. Would i be able to build a 7mgte, with 500-600 hp to the wheels, that would be as reliable as a 2jz with the same amount of power. I know there will be more headaches with the 2jz swap but it wont be my daily driver so time is not an issue.

Thanks for any help!
