    87 2JZGTE swap

    Thanks everyone! The engine will be back this week some time! If I were to go through the process of getting another 2jz, I would make sure I see the engine run before I get it. Id rather spend the extra money that way. If you get a pickle like mine, it will cost alot

    Well walked out to my car today to find it broken into. Ugh I cant catch a fucking break. They only took my head unit face plate but they busted the window. I have had a spare window forever so I just popped it in and everything is good to go.

    Yes good engines are harder to come by now a days. Its really hit and miss. And thanks for the kind words, I figured that if I completely rebuild the engine to factory standards that I will have a nice reliable engine/

    150-155 cold. When the cam broke, 3 was partially open and 6 was fully open, so I guess that caused the lack of compression.

    Little Update: I found that the Exhaust camshaft was broke right after the third lobe. I pulled the cam caps and I didnt see any signs of seizing or over heating. I did however find out that I had a leaky head gasket that could of explained the smoking I was getting. So I pulled the head and...

    im going with stock pistons, rings , oil pump, and head gasket. Ill be putting in new ferrera valve seals and ARP head studs. I will be running ACL bearings. Does anyone know if toyota makes a different sized head gasket and pistons for the 2jz?

    The tolerances on the new engine should still be checked on everything, its going to be a good 600-900 more just for the brand new short block so that is an option too. A set of pistons and rings from toyota is 560, vs 800+ just for the after market pistons. so they indeed cheaper.
