Had the same issue with my 2jz. In the end i had to use a oxy torch to loosen the bolt, which resulted in having to replace the crankshaft pulley.

Impact gun is the way to go. If not possible, you MUST fix the flywheel. I did it by putting a bar between 2 of the flywheel teeth throught the starter engine hole.
Managed to get it off last night (er.. the bolt)!
A high-tensile bolt in place of one of the pressure plate bolts, and a chain looped around one of the top gearbox bolts... in the end it came undone fairly easily with a 2 metre bar!
Now I have to buy a balancer puller.. I seem to buy one every time I work on a car but can never find them afterwards!
Must.... avoid.... urge... to... upgrade... parts I haven't.... used.... yet.....
Good workGetting a big-ass breaker bar + some kinda extension for it is usually the best (or only) way to get them off.
If there's one thing I know, it's never to mess with mother nature, mother in-laws and mother freaking Ukrainians
