Default It's a matter of maintenance, 2JZ-GTE swaps

So, this is probably a question I should ask someone that has a 2JZ-GTE swap. I'm contemplating swapping out my supercharged 2JZ-GE for a GTE but am not technically adept at complicated maintenance issues (water pump, A/C compressor replacement, differential replacement, etc.)

So my question is, do you service your GTE swap yourself or do you have someone that can take care of service maintenance?

Do you currently service the car yourself?

Nothing would change with the gte swap. The engines are identical.

^ what he said.
spark plugs are easier to change on the gte though.
