1JZ questions

[newbsupra]

i didnt look to much but, in my 87.. ill need new cross member, motor mounts,different harness? etc? anything else i need someone mention it how hard is it to mount a IC? also, i was wondering if i can stick with the stock tranny in my n/a.. its a 5spd i dont plan on really doing anything to get more hp out of the 1jz, im sure it will be plenty of power. my main concern is the tranny, because i can get an engine for 800-1000cdn, and how much is a tranny anyways? any help appreciated, id probibly do this during winter as a project.

i love my car to much to sell it so why not swap it! lol

-some info i thought was important-
The 1j swap can only be a direct fit in the 89 and up mk3's that use the newer round style motor mounts. If you have an 89, check first, the model change split that year. If you have an 87-88, you'll need to either locate a 89+ crossmember or make some custom mounts up. The crossmember from the clip will not work without serious modifactions. Due to it being RHD, you will need to modify the mounts for the steering rack.





Some items you'll have to buy when swapping this in are a mkiv TT throttle cable and also a high pressure powersteering hose from a 93-94 mkiv supra.
Some parts crossover to US part numbers, some do not.

not an easy swap.
