Default what 1jz motorset did I buy??????

I just got my 1jzgte motorset today. but i'm not sure what car it came out of. I searched here and couldnt find definite answers. a few clues are..
the oil pan is right behind the crank pulley.
the ecu it came with has 4 plugs into it and each plug only has 2 rows of pins.

pics will be posted up later. If anyone can help identify the motor it would be helpful.

Sounds Supra to me......What did the paperwork say?

And there are a bunch of random 1JZ post's that show little differences.

oil pan right behind crank pulley? That is a front sump, right? If so, it is a Chaser 1JZ.

Looks like a chaser motor since it has the front sump and the chaser/soarer ecu.

I dont think it is a soarer ecu because I have a soarer harness and the ecu pkugs have 4 rows of pins. The one in the picture only has 2 rows. If it is a chaser engine, then is the tranny is a r154 and useable in the sc300, right??? can anyone verify this.

It is a JZX81 Chaser motor. The sump and shifter location give it away.

The JZX90 Chaser had the remote shifter location on the R154. The JZX100 and JZX110 Chasers are single turbo and have the remote shifter that is shared with the R154 from the JZZ30 Soarer.

I agree to the above statement.

Toyota Cressida guys would sell the custody rights to their first born kid to get your JZX81 w/R154 engine set. That is a direct swap into an 89-92 Cressida. Talk about a sleeper.

For the SC, you will need to swap the oil pan to mid-rear sump and build a custom piece to move the shifter location further back the drivetrain to fit through the tranny tunnel and into the cockpit with the shifter.

I am certain there are write-ups about how each of these procedures are accomplished somewhere within the Club Lexus vault.
