Getting ready to pick up a 1jz motorset. Already tried searching. I want to see side by side comparison of the 1jz motors that are available in various cars. I'm trying to source a 1jz from a car that requires the least amount or the easier prep work necessary to drop it into my 92 sc300 5spd.

Thanks in advance.

PS: focusing on oil pan, ECU, distinctive characteristics.

 

no matter what dropping the soarer engine set will be the easiest from a wiring standpoint, otherwise they will all fit in the engine bay with equal ease.

 

what are you looking for exactly? Call me if you have questions bro.

 

do what i did call Jhot and ask for the next 92' 1jz 5speed.
and they will do the rest.
and the easiest is the motor from the same year as your car. i.e. 92

 

I'm pretty sure the motor mounts are different on a different vehicle other than the Soarer.

 

There's a soarer clip on ebay. WIth a 5spd too.

 

anyone happen to know the inter-year differences?

 

btw, that 5-spd aint on ebay anymore
well it might still BE there when if you look at it soon enough, but i just changed clips to that one this morning.
(previous clip was from them, and i hadn't had it shipped yet.)

 

I can care less about the wiring because isn't all the wiring the same? I just wonder about the oil pan and alternator I've read about? I'm just looking for how much flexibility I have at choosing a motorset.
