    Default 1jz vvti swap advice needed

    I was originally just going to swap my NA auto to a manual (r154) but have found someone selling an r154 and 1jz vvti at a bargain price.

    What does a 1jz swap in to a jza80 entail ?

    The engine is from a chaser so I already know I need to swap over my sump and engine mounts but after that I don't really know

    Any advice would be great

    The swap has been done before but I'm not sure if the build was documented on here although from memory the car was advertised for sale on here. The build was documented on Supraforums.com.au so maybe do a search and check there? It shouldn't be too difficult though considering the motor pretty much just bolts in and so will the gearbox, so that only leaves the wiring really.

    Are you confident the engine itself isn't bargain?

    Engine conversion is when you drive a shitbox which costs a whole LEXUS to own
