Did the 1jzgte and the 2jzgte use the same radiator?

but... I remember reading you can just put the sensor in the drain plug or something. And a 7M radiator is the better bet since it will actually fit.

OK thanks

Can a 2jzgte radiator be used in a 1jzgte swap? I guess that is what I should have asked.

I need a radiator for a 1jz and there is one for sale from a 2jz. The seller says he has one of each and the radiators themselves are the same.

If the fan is different, could I use the 2jz radiator but just get a different fan shroud? Are the fans different size? Or does the hydraulic fan and it's sensor render them incompatible?

Sorry for not being clear the first time. I appreciate your help.

"And a 7M radiator is the better bet since it will actually fit." Sorry, I should also mention this is for a 1jzgte swap into a Lexus SC, not a Supra.

It depends on if you are going to be planning on running the Hydrofan or a clutch fan or electros. If you aren't planning on running the Hydrofan, it doesn't matter what radiator you use. Either way, I'm with BorHor...why not just use the 7M radiator...it fits in the car perfectly.

Thanks Troyota, you answered the question as I asked it.

BorHor - The 7m rad will fit the 1jz SC300 perfectly? Not for a Supra. Supra mania just has more 1jz/2jzgte info!!!!!!!

I appreciate both your help.

Ahhh...see, if you'd have told us it was for an SC300 from the getgo...we could have answered your question better. I don't even know if the Soarer had a Hydrofan. What's wrong with the radiator in the car currently?!?

The radiator just needs to be replaced and I am just trying to go OEM to get the build done and get it on the street.

I can grab the 2jzgte radiator, and I have spent some time searching, but have found no definite answer if the 2j rad is compatible with the 1j in the SC.

Damn hybrids! lol

Thanks for your help
