will that actually fit? I mean just dimentionally? And why don't you just go with a 3SGTE? Being different isn't always a good idea...

ok, then why stop with the 1JZ, go with a 2JZ. It's just a bit taller :evillol:

it is the same block? there is a .5 liter difference and i thought that there might be a bigger difference then the height, i didnt look into the 2jz

from what i remember, 2JZ are only taller than the 1JZ (in dimentions). 2JZ is one of toyotas most potent engine. Check it out.
