Is it really easier to get a 1J than a 7M? That's quite surprising.

I wouldn't say "easier" but for what I would spend building the 7m to where I would be happy, I could get a half cut and have something a little more original, probably for less money..

I dunno, I kinda always wanted a 1jz or 2jz in the 'upra anyway, and this gives me an excuse to persue that. :evil2:

Maybe someday I'll meet in the middle @ 1.5jz lol

A built 1jz is going to cost way more then a built 7m in my opinion....

Depends on how much HP you want though


Well see thats the thing, I was wanting to switch to a FFIM, new custom IC pipes, bigger IC, all forged internals, MAF-T, mostly to clean up the looks as well as improve performance. I wasnt really looking to go for crazy power numbers so I was shootin for 350-400 RWHP with a fair size turbo to start, but later on upgrade for 600hp.. Basically I wanted to do it totally right the first time with the 7m, without wasting my money..


With the 1jz I would be looking for around 350RWHP, which if I'm not mistaken can be made on the stock twins if they are up to snuff.. Probably a SAFC-II, MK4 550's, BIC DP, and some other things...

Shit, I didn't even catch on to the "built" in your sentance... Ya if I were to build up the 1jz, yes, it probably would cost more considering the greddy parts I found are over a grand per set(pistons/rods).. So I would probably just keep it stock for a while and have a fun driver..

The 1.5 jz thing really gets expensive, thats why my supra project is on hold!!!!
