It will, but you will need to change to a 90+ cross member, have custom engine brakets made, you can use a R154 trans with a 1JZ bell housing and flywheel if you want a stick. When you buy you will need find a front clip. Just buying an engine/ECU combo will create a lot of extra work and parts hunting. The car will need to be rewired to accept the new engine. This is not a simple drop in swap. You need to be an extremly competent mechanic and electrician to make it happen. Be prepared to spend at least $5000 on the swap.

Now, just how serious are you?

One more thing; it is a 2JZGTE. Nissan uses two Ts to indicate twin turbos. Toyota does not.
