savageskaterkid Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I've just been fooling around with engine swap ideas lately, and i've decided that im not gonna b able to do the RB swap at the moment because of limited time and budget, so im gonna swap over to an L28ET and 5 speed. But, my frend has an mk3 supra with the 7MGTE engine in it, and im trying to convince him to go 1JZ...so i look around the internet and find sound clips-and the 1JZ sounds BADASS, and i wanna get one(i hafta get one) I looked around, and it seems a few ppl with toyota trucks put the 1JZ in there, i'd get a supra, but i want sumthing thats gonna b a total sleeper, and alot of ppl around her know wht the mk3 is, cuz everyone has seen my buddy's. The general question is, does anybody make a mount kit for the 1JZ toyota truck, i've looked on all the toyota forums, but alot of them dont have the search function, so its hard as **** to look it up. Does anybody else know anything about these swaps? i've seen a few threads on here about them, but nuthing about the swap itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Taylor Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 The motor is a very very tight fit. A good friend of mine has one in my old 86 turbo pickup. He had the mounts made locally. Did most of the work himself. Had to cut some stuff out to make it work. The truck screams.....ran a 6.80 @ 96 mph in the local short 1/8 track.....that comes out to about a 7.1 @ 101 in a true 1/8. It has a to4 series turbo, 23psi, and a 100 shot of gas. He ran the 6.80 @ 16psi and 100 shot. Look down a few posts to the 280z v/s Z06 thread for some pics of the toyota pickup.
