1JZ swap list
Yeah, I've searched a bit... perhaps it's just Monday but I can't find what I'm after 
For the SC series, what exactly is needef for a 1JZ swap? The reason I ask is that I still have a 1JZ motor that I bought for a mk3 project but never used. I was going to NA-T my SC but never did, lack of time at the moment. Since my goals for the SC300 would be right around 300hp, I figured a 1JZ swap would be a pretty easy thing to do.
I've got:
motor
2 pairs of extra turbos
tanabe dp
smic + piping from mk3
I'll unload my mk3 1JZ harness and pick up a soarer harness. Also have 3 1JZ automatic trannies to choose from, one I know has the soarer tailshaft on it.
How much lengthening of the harness is needed? It looks like the tach signal will be a problem, just like NA mkiv GTE swaps.
