The engine is massive, heavy and take every square inch. I still have to stuff the radiator and fan in there. But it seems fit great. I need to make mounts. The engine will be as low and back as possible. The stock supra mounts might hit the steering...
I want to tell everyone who talks about american big, heavy, V8's need to pick up this little 3.0 inline six.... I figure it is heavier than my LS1 V8. Now this is crazy but the shifter seems to come out farther back than the stock floor hole, which if you dont know is way back! I should document this and sell it in a book. ZTF...Z's-That-Fly. |

that is soo sick. As soon as I got my 240z the first thing I thought of when I looked at the inline 6 is, man I wish i had the money to put a 2jz in (my first 2 cars were mkIII turbo supras, so I have a soft spot for them).I know there is someone else near me in orlando who is doing this swap, i wanna go for a ride in that. good luck, post the progress.

Wow....impressive and beautiful....I'm looking forward to more updates, especially the motor mounts, tranny mounts and steering issues.
By the way, if that's you in the pic with the white T-shirt, anyone tell you you look a bit like Ben Affleck (I mean that in a good way  !) If that's your dad helping, that's cool. I wish my dad used to help me wrench...Good luck! Yasin

well I'd go with "Mr Scottie's" oppinion here and buy a huge and expensive intercooler....if you have the $$$.
But the other option is possible, my supra friend that loves to build things took a huge truck intercooler, ( that thing is huge and heavy) he cut it and re-welded it. He basicly re made a new intercooler with the existing core. Be sure to pressure test it !!! He said it wasn't so hard if you are able to weld, and that is a cheap option. So if you like to weld, go for it, just for fun. Dayz |

Man Cyrus, that is sweet. I have been procrastinating slipping my 2JZ into a 240z. I am awaiting a home for it, I just have to get my ducks in a row...
Regarding the intercooler, you don't have to make it too huge... 1100 cfm Spearco will support nearly 800 horses here's where I picked mine up.... http://www.roadraceengineering.com/i...lers-print.htm You also see them on Ebay pretty regularly as well. Keep the updates coming Mike

SWEET!!!!!
I love the supras, the only down side to a supra is that it is so heavy. however you are putting a supra engine is a really light body as I am sure you know. You'll be able to leave burn marks up and down your street.  By the way, how much farther back does the shifter come out?

Awesome...give any thought into removing the stock mounts from the Z and swapping in the kmember and other motor mount arm from the supra instead of trying to fabricate mounts to fit in the stock Z location?

 I want to use it with my RB26 set up, but will have to have the end tank cut off and turned around so that the inlet/outlet will come out on oppisite sides. I wish I could find someone to swap me one, or buy mine so I can just buy one already set up the way I need it to be facing.... |

Here is my progress, (Marcos may host them...) Engine was moved back .5 inches by moving the brake lines. I do not want the steering to be to stiff due to a heavy nose. I thought of massaging the firewall with a sledge hammer about .5 inches more, so I can move the engine back further.
As you can see the shifter will exit behind the stock location. The turbos my bake all the brake lines and electrical. |

Here are the images that Cyrus sent to me. The shifter is further back but not too bad. Keep the images coming.

So it will fit in the stock mounting location of the original motor?
Any thoughts on scrapping the stock twins for a large single...would clear up some room for you on the pass side frame rail area.
