i was thinking of putting a 2jz in my 90 mk3 turbo in the future but was wondering does it matter what year vehicle i get the motor from
is it preferable to get from an mk4 or a lexus? any small details would help, do certain years have differences?

I take it you want to put a 2jz-gte in there?

You can get a 2jz-gte either from a Aristo (Jap GS300) or Supra MK4.

Supra MK4 has the correct sump configuration to clear your chassis in your MK3, so that is a better choice.

Other than that years don't make much of a difference, 1997+ are VVTI Motors which are revised and upgraded,
however more important is condition of motor rather than which one it is, as both are very reliable and powerful.
