hi guys, i am currently contemplating on getting a sc300 and doing a 1jz drop in. what would be the idea engine for this? how reliable is this? what kind of power does it make? i want to stay in a automatic. any and all help would be very much appreciated.

 

we do have a search feature(im starting to understand more and more everyday why all the OG's always tell everyone to search, i havent been here that long and its already getting on my nerves to see these questions all the time)

 

Go down to Wendy's and get a Whamburger and some french cry's

 

then please inform me of exactly what to type in on the search and i will do so.

 

How about just look at the first 3 pages of the performance section and open any of the 12 (yes...I counted them) threads that relate to the 1J.

 

lol well thanx. i wasnt trying to be a *******. was just trying to get answers quick. thank you very much guys. MODS CLOSE THIS THREAD PLEASE

 

this is exactly why i said search, there is no excuse ofr not being ablt to find info on the 1jz swap, the most commonly discussed topic in the performance section

 

no need to get your blood pressure rising.

When you search for something like 1JZ that only has three letters in the word, use a wild card character, or asterisk. Search the performance for "1JZ* turbo", "1JZ* swap", etc...I promise you that your results will be fruitful.

The 1JZ is rather reliable. The fuel economy is good. The performance is amazing for a 2.5L. It can achieve 400whp without much creativity being required. It can handle huge numbers, but you begin to loose streetability over ~500whp as the power band becomes thin.

 

This statement is useless.

This however, is usefull

 

blizzy thank you very much. thats what i was looking for. i didnt exactly mean to come off like i did. alreayd been a long day for me. sorry if this thread offended/upset anyone here on clublexus. thanks again for the info blizzy

 

Sorry if I sounded too "agitated".

It is just that this exact question comes up literally daily!

Good luck with your swap project.

 

please see my sig....

if searching the topic 1jz doesnt help you, try searching my screen name cause im sure its in a good majority of the 1jz threads
