This is just a thought, I was wondering about, wouldnt a 1GRFE engine be shorter and improve weight distribution, paired with a weight reduction, and move the SC400 closer to 50/50? the V6 also produces the same as the 1UZ engine..

a couple cars like the 4runner use both 2UZ and 1GR engines so it should definitely bolt in, its just wiring youd have to deal with, and the bolt on SC...

Too much mods if you ask me. Just drop in the JZ of your choice, 2 or 1.

the GR engines make more power than the 1JZ, and I was just mainly wondering about pushing the mass of the engine back behind the strut towers to improve handling, as people seem to speak of how a weight reduction just throws off the weight balance.

more room for turbo's too! although the engine in stock form doesn't like boost to much from what i've read recently.

there would be to much hate since it would be so different than the norm, if I truly had the time and money I'd try this. but how tall is the motor it may not even fit under our hood, after all it is a truck engine

the height is a really big factor with a 1GR, they are just as tall as the 2UZ and although the 2UZ can fit in our cars, they would either have to have the hood removed/modified or swap on 1UZ heads and intake to get it to clear the hood at the very least.

if you want better weight distribution you can always do this:

thats a little ridiculous , I am just talking about pushing the number a little closer to 50/50, along with having a unique swap


I have a lot of time on my hands and think of realistic out of the box swaps..
