v8dats Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 i have a jdm engine and my block mounts cant be bolted on without them hitting my steering shaft. i heard that there might be different block mounts for different chassis and that the supra mounts dont stick out as far. if anyone has any info or pics,please help me out!

Z-Gad Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Juan, do your mounts look like mine? I had some 2JZGE or 1JZ mounts at first and then picked up the TT mounts and brackets in order to have clearance. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8dats Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 Here is what i have Mike. here is the driver's side. and here are the mounts that i have. they are freaking huge!(compared to yours) the passenger side is ok and would make for an easy mount to the framerail..

oatmilk Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 If your engine is an Aristo JDM engine (originally front sump) then that is probalby your problem. As Mike mentioned moving to USDM Supra TT mounts will make them not extend out as far the mounts you have now. I would show you mine but they are at the fabricator. If you need part numbers let me know. Your engine mount rubber pieces look to be correct though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v8dats Posted July 31, 2007 Author Share Posted July 31, 2007 yeah they are the aristo mounts. would you please post the part numbers of the tt brackets? thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oatmilk Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Toyota dealer part # 12315-46041 Bracket, Engine List$:83.94 each 12311-46041 Bracket, Engine List$: 83.94 each FYI: The part numbers above are for the late model Supra engine brackets (model years 97-98). There is also early model Supra engine brackets(model years 93-96). In addition the engine insulators (rubber mounts) were different for the same model years as listed above for the engine brackets. The late model (97-98) engine brackets are sligtly longer than the 93-96 engine brackets The late model insulators are slightly shorter than the early model insulators. Mixing and matching the parts can give some wiggle room on engine heights. I learned all of this from speaking to one of the Toyota dealership guys that sells parts on Supraforums. For my 240z install, I'm using the later model stuff for no reason other than the dealership could get them the fastest. I know of no performance difference between the two. I highly recommend browsing the Supraforums website to learn even more about these engines if you have the time or care to. So far your project is looking great. Congrats.

oatmilk Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I understand about Supra forums totally. No search function for almost a year now and not very post friendly. If you have any other questions just ask. I have been prepraring for my swap for like 4 years it seems so I've read up a lot on this stuff. I almost have to pinch myself to believe my swap is actually in progress. oatmilk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oatmilk Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 With regards to wiring I'm not there yet. I'll let you know what I have accumulated though: OBD-1 USDM 2jzgte complete engine wiring harness I will also be getting a HKS V-Pro harness for the 2jzgte supra. The critical things you need for a 1jz as I see it are: 1jzgte jdm engine with wiring harness and ecu if possible 1jzgte flywheel 7mgte R-154 5 speed tranny 7mgte clutch kit electric fuel injection fuel pump modifed stock fuel tank with a sump added to it fuel surge tank custom engine mounts (Mazworx if they are close to you would be good) but depending on your skill you can also do it yourself I suppose. custom driveshaft custom fuel lines (stock lines may be able to be utilized) 1jzgte ecu or a aftermarket stand alone ecu(MS2, HKS, Power FC, AEM...) The 1jz stock engine mounts should be very similar if not exact to the part numbers I listed above. If you have a specific question I'll be glad to help as much as possible.
