That is roughly what I will be doing, but I will probably stay at BPU with the stock turbochargers set to true twin conversion [TTC] for awhile, until I can afford a turbo kit, fuel system, stand-alone and tuning.

you can use the jdm harness.. just have to extend it..
I personally have my 2j running off the 1jz harness.. still have my aristo harness.. maybe eventually get to wiring it up to work

are the ecu connectors the same for the 1J/2J? i wouldnt think they were, and how is that working out for a 2J on a 1J harness what mods did that take u?
Sounds like a sciences project gone wild! If u want usdm 2jtwins ive got some for sale. Good luck with yur mean ass project.
Tissimo, what did you do to your aristo pan to make it rear sump, and how much did all the parts cost?

Rods are significantly smaller, as well as the rings and ringlands.
Those high HP VVTi setups don't use stock bottom ends.
There's nothing wrong with it sub 400rwhp. That's the point when all the IS300 guys start to worry, because that's what dyno/street time beyond that level has proven, regardless of how conservative the tune was. Sure some get lucky and might pump out 500, but how long do they last? Funny because most won't admit when they blew the motors, just like Supra owners.
After the bottom end is switched over to GE/GTE or aftermarket rods, pistons/rings, tuning the VVTi with special cams, and degree them in with a piggyback that can actually control them (limited) it gets costly to have everything shipped from Japan/Australia. I'm curious to know how many tuner shops in Japan actually keep the VVTi.
I think the gte vvti bottom ends are just as strong.. the GE vvti bottom ends are weak though
I'm using a 2j aem ems w/ a custom adapter harness.. SupraNick is running his 2j off a 1jz ecu though..
I used the parts from my 1j and put them on the 2j (oil pan, bellhousing,fw etc)

See what i mean tissimo yur ride is the crazy ass hauler, man i jealous but than again i plan on destroy allllllllll 2j competition that comes my way. So get out my WAYYYYYYYYYYY YOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAHAHAHAHAAAAA.
thanks for all this imput guys, keep it all coming. now no one except druken medic really gave imput on my idea and swap direction i had thought, but i have noticed 1J and parts are cheaper and really not that hard to find (if in stock) and now that Driftnation has also completed thier Stinger install im wondering if i shouldnt just go 1J, i admit having a 2J is almost just bragging rights but some are making impressive #'s on 1J's but im still in the debating process before i make my choice, so again if any one has imput please respond to either the 1J or 2J thx.
2JZ VVTi rods should all be the same GTE/GE. Toyota Employees, I call upon you to find out!!!! lol
