hey guys i have already purchased the 2jz-gte with R154 tranny and ecu/wiring harness. i have found a shop (tech2 motorsports) to help me do my swap due to them making a swap kit (custom motor mounts/tranny mounts, custom driveshaft and plug in play with the wiring harness). i know i need to purchase a fmic and radiator, custom exhaust. but is the EGR plate worth getting and how can i get away with not putting a mass air flow on. my last question is there anything i need to know or replace. thanks

why settle for the r154? why not get the v160?

 

[LRG SOUP]

^^^ probably a lot cheap to do the R154 for his power goals. Not everyone is looking for $700+ HP.

First i believe you are trying to say "respectable" instead of "respectful", if you are going to 'dis' something then do it right.

Second... you drive a Lexus sc430 ... not a Supra. Don't flatter yourself.


and +1 to the e46 M3's with the HPF kit in them. they are absolutely nuts.

Will be watching this build. I had a Tech2 kit for my S13 as well so maybe I need a tech 2 kit for my e36 M3

Not sure if you've gone over the e30 forums much, but this is something I considered once, on an E30 instead of the E36:

One of the biggest issue you'll have is the manifold touching the brake booster (or at least on the old E30).

Keep us updated on your progress and all the work needed!


edit:
Found an e36 with a 1jz swap

Need more info man.....is this an 2jz USDM or JDM? If it's a JDM, you dont have to worry about EGR or Maf since they dont use it.....If it doesn't already have it, you probably want to replace the hydro fan pump setup with a regular water pump setup and replace the timing belt, front & rear main seals, and maybe even the cam seals.....

that is prolly the best swap ive ever seen

Thats me!
thoses are some old vids. It was still fun with the stock twins until i blew them up.
my e36 weight in at 3058 with the kids in the car.

well i was going to go with the V160 but when i spoke to a guy in canada he said not worth it unless i am going over 700-800whp so that is pretty much why also its about 2 to 3 grand in my pocket for mods. the motor is compression tested at about 25,000 miles (JDM MOTOR) and the tranny has about 30,000 km so i did do searching since i am in no real hurry. and as far as pics i will put some up within the next week or so.

 

[krinkin99]

ya i actually work for BMW in orange ca and ran into 2 people with E46 M3 HPF stage 3 told me he had about $30,000 into the car, not really what i want to spend. but it was one of the fastest cars ive been in. after searching on what i want to do to my 2jz these are the parts i will be purchasing throughout the year

-RPS ALUM. FLYWHEEL (ALREADY HAVE)
-RPS MAX/SERIES SPRUNG HUB 6 PUCK (ALREADY HAVE)
-KOYO RADIATOR (ALREADY HAVE)
-HKS CAM GEARS/BELT
-GREDDY BCC
-GREDDY TURBO TIMER
GREDDY PROFEC B-SPEC BOOST CONT.
-TANABE DOWNPIPE
-CUSTOM INTERCOOLER KIT (ALREADY HAVE)
-HKS OR GREDDY BOV (NOT SURE LIKE BOTH NAYBE YOU CAN GIVE ME UR OPINION)
-K&N COLD AIR BOX KIT OR APEXI INTAKE (NOT SURE EITHER HEARD APEXI IS BEST WITH HP AND FILTERING BUT ALSO NEEDS A CUSTOM PIECE, LET ME KNOW)

DONT HAVE ALL YET BUT ALL IN TIME
