Right, he means that a 1UZ swap into a Supra would be a good weight savings, of course And ed from V-eight.com has done exactly that, with sexy results.

Looks cool...what type of cooling fans do you plan to have in place? Doesn't look like you have enough room...and maybe need some sort of custom fan shroud.
Another stupid question: are you planning on running AC? I noticed that the factory condenser is still in place along with the dual fans.
I ran into some cooling issues with my Z32 because the air had to travel from the intercooler through the condenser then finally to the radiator.

Doh! Yea I got it backwards. Still well worth it with how easy the 2JZ makes power. You get 70 off the bat with no mods. With the stock twins you would have massive grunt down low with BPU mods.

Such a shame........1 UZ is a superior motor but doesn't get the aftermarket love the 2J gets. +1 for this swap though. I got a 240sx project coming up. It shall breathe Lexus V8 fire.
