1jz-gte vs 2jz-gte
Someone call the wambulance. Maybe if I bought a SC400, Chaser 1JZ, $900 on the wiring alone and god knows how much else on other parts I'd be upset as well. But see just because you overspent money on your swap doesn't mean everyone else should. Just because you regret you're swap doesn't mean we all should wallow in the pit of regret with you.
Lets see your SC. Yuppie boy, go lease a BMW.
So not true. None of the maintenance will have any affect on engine failure. With both a water temp gauge and an oil level gauge you can catch either a water pump failure or large seal/gasket leak. Engine is non interference so the valves won''t hit the head if the belt snapes.
Second you speak as if you NEED to purchase an engine to swap. You don't.
Comparing those two engines
- 1JZ is missing the igniter. It's a bill something to replace it.
- 1JZ has 330cc injectors, 2JZ already comes with the 440cc good for BPU. A bill for the injectors and then two for the apexi safc. 2JZ-GE has 315cc injectors ,how smart does it seem to buy an engine with 15cc larger injectors?
- 1JZ has worse cam profiles than a regular 2JZ engine let along one with variable valve timing. Add another bill or two for the 2JZ cams with a regrind.
- Titan sells the .4L stroker kit for 14,000. Here you have .5L gain for for a 1/12th of the cost.
*1JZ 2.75in OD throttle, 2JZ 3in OD throttle.
*1JZ smaller turbros, 2.25in OD. 2JZ larger turbos, 2.50in OD.
* Head flow worse
* Lower flow in every category.
Just look at what you pay and what you get. 2JZ is a easily a better buy. What's worse is there is no such thing as 1JZ pricing. What I mean is that the cost for a water pump or a timing belt or an intercooler, it doesn't change between 1JZ or 2JZ. But because the 2JZ is a better platform the gains from an exhaust, intercooler piping or a boost control are higher. Like they say the proof is in the pudding so look at all the 1JZ with 2JZ injectors, 2JZ cams, 2JZ (1.5JZ) blocks and then of course single turbo.

because there arent enought 1j vs 2j threads already I thought I beat this thread into the ground.
Look, all I got to my name is a car, and a duffel bag full of underwear and sweet, stinky weed.
