Your car already has a 2jz in it. It is however the 2jz-GE. It's the NA version. If your swapping you want the 2jz-gte. This is the lil bad boy that's in the supra tt. The differences between the GE and the gte is compression and the gte has extra oil sprayers to keep things cool. From what I understand if you are aiming at less than 700 hp it's not a bad idea to keep the GE. Search for NA-T. It's pretty impressive what you can get out o the GE

Why did you answer a completely different question? lol
To OP: Some sumps are different, that why you keep yours from your 2jzge and bolt it on. Some plugs and ecus are different across the different cars. You're going to need a re-wire anyway since the wires won't reach where the ECU sits. When in doubt...search button
