j_jza80 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Nice project Littlenum and another couple of guys have done the swap here, but it's been done many times over in Australia (probably given the huge supply of cheap 1JZs they have access to) Apparently it's all straight forward as engine swaps go, even the wiring.

paul21uk Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 tried searching on the forum but it dont come up with anything from a 1jz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 It's not well documented on here, Littlenum was trying to charge for his expertise so I doubt he'll give the information freely. As said, try the Australian forums, they're very generous with information on the swap in my experience. (I was going to build a 6 speed 1JZ VVTi car) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul21uk Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 any ideas what things i need to control things safely i have full decat with y pipe 3 inch bore air filter wanna run at 1.2 bar max do i need fcd ebc etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Anything over 1 bar of boost requires, at the very least, an FCD. Have a look at the bpu section in tech, most of it applies to the 1JZ engine as well and is good advice. I can't help you on the starter question at the mo but I should be able to set you straight after the weekend when I'm not trying to do this on a poxy phone!

pedrosixfour Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 By the way, this site's search facility doesn't recognise requests of 3 characters or less so searching of 1JZ will net you exactly squat. Use longer key words to describe what you're looking for or go to google and type in "1JZ" and "mkivsupra.net" into the search window there.

pedrosixfour Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Google 1jz site:http://www.mkivsupra.net (5,270 results - should keep you busy ) Never actually tried it myself mate. Just a solution someone offered in a thread I happened upon. Still, it should help to answer most questions, if used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, Google isn't smart enough to return only threads, but it's still better than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
