how's the manifold and turbo fit with the motor in the car?you going to have clearance with the turbo clocked like that?i'm just wondering because both my single's(1j and 2j)needed an elbow welded on because of being close to the frame

pretty good build wish you good luck


is that the 7mgte wiring ?

will it work on a 2jzge? or a 2jzgte? could anyone explain this to me?
:1zhelp:

its the 7mgte wiring and sensors. some need to be lengthened, other than that, pretty much plug and play. if you plan to use the 7m stuff, you can use either block i'm sure, just a 2jzge head at least.

How did I miss this thread... looks great! Cant wait until I can finish my na-t 2j

for being an easier swap its still a lot of work... well, i did make the downpipe, and route all my own intercooler piping.

little update: i have to do something about the throttle cable and finish up the little things, and i'll be ready to start it up tomorrow. i cranked it over tonight, no leaks, and its full of fluids.

so, after getting to drive the car with this engine in it. i must say, it feels like it almost has more torque than the 7m. the engine runs quite a bit smoother, power delivery is nice and smooth also. plus at 4-5k rpm it sounds awesome! i'm currently at 7-8psi and it feels nice for this amount of boost. i'm having a problem with an oil leak at the cps. hopefully tomorrow i'll get that taken care of. other than that... no issues. it starts instantly, revs well, at idle even with an open downpipe its about as loud as a stock supra. so far, this engine is badass. after i installed the engine, it took about 3 cranks for the car to fire up the first time. videos are coming tomorrow.

pics...

i routed the intercooler pipes under the radiator, and there's about 4" of ground clearance. this pic shows its kinda busy under there.

Wow, that was quick. People seem to be getting better and better at this swap! Good work!

thank you sir. in all, it took my roughly a month and a half to get this done. a lot of the time was spent parts hunting. the swap itself was more like a week or so. i had a lot of setbacks too, the oil pan, the flywheel, having to modify everything and not really know about it. aside from the engine bolting in there and using stock sensors, i basically had to alter every accessory, and start to re make my exhaust. the other thing was my 7m had a lot of aftermarket things, ffim, oil filter relocation kit, (which i removed for the 2jz), intercooler pipes, the exhaust, fuel stuff, the list goes on and on. i'm just thankful to have this done, and have it work so well. i'll probably finish the exhaust up in week or so, i'm feeling lazy.

Looks good man.
So you're running the 7M electronics, but you have no MAF sensor, which indicates you're not completely using the 7M electronics. What engine management are you running and you're using a MAP sensor right?
