if you go 2j and the V160 6-speed you'll need a lot lower/higher, however you want to look at it, final drive cause first gear with the mk3 pumpkin will be useless. the R-154 is stronger than the W-58 but doesn't shift as smoothly. i just recently learned about another tranny the R-151 haven't been able to find out what the difference is though between the 154 and it though no info really on it.

It's a 2jz block with a 1jz head on it. One of our bama boys is doing it right now. Racerxj220 from Gadsden or Anniston is doing it in his MKIII.

Thanks alot Jeff..............lol

Now you're just bragging...............:biglaugh:

I hope mine goes as well as yourd did Josh. As soon as I get my stuff from Aaron, I can get started. I have my new head installed, but I need the wiring harness to really get started on the rest of it. I can't hardly wait to get everything together and actually start working on the car. Wish me luck.


I wish you the best of luck Jay. Let me know if i can help with anything

Picture this *hypothetical* situation ;)

You bought a 1JZ originally, or your 1JZ block was damaged. You bought an ULTRA rare and unique turbo kit for the 1JZ. Then, you think "I've never seen this turbo kit on a 3.0l block." I know this kit on a 1JZ made 524rwhp at like, 24PSI, and OrinB made 590RWHP way back in the day (on a 3.0l block) on a Blitz K-26 kit (SARD and Blitz use different manifolds) on the same setup I'm using (except I'm going with the better Sard kit, and bigger cams), and after I bust 500RWHP, if I'm not happy, I'm throwing another Walbro in the tank, and running a dual feed rail for my AIC's and to feed the 800cc injectors more fuel.

Maeso busted something like, 600-700RWHP on this kit. He popped a wheelie in his MK3 at the line, and ran a 9.XX in the 1/4 mile with this same kit, just on a 1JZ 2.5l platform, on a STOCK 1JZ engine, with this kit, injectors/pump, and a standalone, no nitrous. I will be running Meth injection, and pushing 24PSI on ONE walbro, and later on, see what two can do at 30PSI (Stinger EMS only has a 3bar, but has more options than my Megasquirt....).

Knowing all of that, and considering I paid $600 shipped for my 2J-GE, which was a good price, wouldn't you do it too? It's not like anyone else in the U.S. is matching my mods. I think I'm the 1st to try with this kit.

My other hybrid motor, used a 2JZ-GE head, and 1JZ-GTE block. Are you going to tell me thats a stupid idea too? The head flows more, and the block can rev higher... Why didn't you think of that one first ;)? Hey, at least I'm trying.

(FYI: Easy way to spot a 1.5JZ, is to look at the water pipe from the water neck to the water pump, it's twice as long.)

It's not as big of a difference as you're thinking. Although if my intentions were to go with the 3.0L block from the get go, I wouldn't waste my time with a 1.5JZ unless of course I already had a 1JZ or a turbo kit for it etc.

It is true that the 2Jz flows more Quanitity of air but the 1Jz has a Higher Velocity to the air it flows

This was covered in another thread a while back.

I am interested to see what a 2JZ-GE head and a 1Jz block will do and be like

maybe in a month or two... we haven't had time to do anything due to the holidays, and I just put my dad in the hospital... I have no time for anything anymore, but it should get better in January.
