    Have you heard about the 2jz swap, for cams?

    You can swap in 2jz USDM cams and get them ground to fit in properly. Can be had and ground for a decent price.

    I'd say 'machined' as opposed to ground... to make 2jz cams fit 1jz

    Chris's thread on the maching required is relevant

    Also see this thread for 2JZGTE JDM (not USA, but pretty close) vs 1JZGTE... will give you an idea of the 'upgrade'
