    i run sporty 225's and it can fry them at will if you want, but still gets off the line okay, the auto certainly helps, as did the lower softer springs, its now not as deadly in the wet (it was fricken rediculous before that) but will still light the tires at 80 if you jump on it too hard.

    you also need to find somewhere for the cooler if you are going sleeper..

    the 2.7L thing (forgets engine designation) should go close to bolting in (i think it was in that model in the us) and give you a hell of a lot more room.. if you were staying manual i'd consider that..

    the 1J is a big engine and heavy too.. noticibly heavier in the front.

    (im not trying to talk you out of it, just trying to think of all the goods and bads i've encountered)

    if you run the 1j supra auto you can use the factory speedo cable otherwise you will have to convert to electronic speedo, but unless you have the matching ECU, you will need buggerise around like we had to forever.
    id keep the AC Compressor...id just not connect it...easier than phucking around making idler pulleys and custom belts..

    tow legality is of little concern...im talking a max trip of 40-50kms to mallala and it tows fine now...

    In regards to rear tyres id probably up the rim size to a 15" ford steelie and get it widened to a 9 at the rear (galpro can do it here for under $200 a pair) then whack on some nice old school BFG street 295 15's

    i dont do "3RZ"...1JZ is factory turbo...

    The thing handles like a wet fish now...i recognise its no circuit warrior and never will be

    -good plan - just be aware some engines might have that odd-bod no clutch setup?

    - i did say "IF" wouldn't bother me either.

    -make sure they are the right offset or you won't fit them, also they need to be appropriately load rated for rego - get a big brake setup too.

    Welcome to the dark side Mr 1JZ. There's a few different ways of putting a 1JZ-GTE into a Hilux and it depends on what generation the Hilux is, what the 1JZ came out of and the owner's tastes/what it's wanted for. You can check out my thread http://www.toymods.net/forums/showthread.php?t=16089p or 1 of the other ones on toymods a search should show a couple more.

    My luck is getting better
    (minor update)
    just pulling off the turbos to replace the head gasket /clean the sludge from the head/valve stem seal and guides and have found that the front turbo impeller has the blades chipped off on the side of all the blades on the intake side and also has a lot of shaft play
    Does anyone know what causes this?
    Is this an indication that this motor has been thrashed ?
    Should i do a complete rebuild to this to make sure its ok?
    Does this mean my motor may be stuffed (blades going through engine)
    Would it be possible for the blades to get stuck in the intercooler and not make it to the engine(hope so)

    Looks like im looking for new turbos as well (not happy but oh well)

    also i have bought a brand new carter lift pump for the fuel setup

    I fear this has happened to my rear turbo also. It makes some scraping noises on occasion, unfortunately I don't have the time or money to replace it at the moment. I haven't seen any ill side effects yet and would imagine that any pieces would be caught in the intercooler. If your replacing the head gasket you should be able to see if there is any damage to the cylinders or pistons. Not sure if it would be from thrashing or just bearings worn with age.

    I'd chuck a set of turbo's on it, (or use it as your chance to go big-single) you could take the head off and have a look, but a VRS kit is heaps.

    with the price of bare 2J's being reasonable, i'd chuck it in..

    and you need to cut the rad support if you are going to attempt to do it with the trans on, or pretty much at all..

    i have bought a new set of good condition turbos thanks to byteme on these forums
    also picked up a spare gearbox too
    i want to stay twins for a while but also for engineering purposes (so i dont have to do an emissions test)
    but will go single eventually
    have you guys just bolted the radiator support panel in or rewelded it and hope the motor doesnt come out for a while

    no touches to the radiator support panel here, i just angled the motor in and took the crossmember out, and made sure the gearbox was off.

    Mine had the Radiator support cut at @ 250-300mm either side of center and the piece was bolted back in. I think they slid the gearbox and motor in as one.

    so i have removed the head off my motor
    Does anyone have any pics of a stock genuine piston
    This motor has had oil pump and sump off and the bores look in good condition
    A little too good infact for the amount of kms so im just wondering if they are stock pistons or not
