roger roger, will do some research :stupid:

People claim some impressive numbers with simple SAF-C tunes on 1J's... I have a mate who was keen on a 1J into his laurel but was put off by cost estimation. Would be keen to know approx cost of the loom.

What are your guys estimates on a completed 1J conversion not incl exhaust and front mount?

depends on how much of a cheap ass D.I.Y-er u are :stupid:

changing the engines is pretty straight forward, as stated above custom engine mounts have been produced in s.a for a very cheap price( same as normal mounts) den buy ur self a 1jz engine loom and use the front engine plugs by just cutting them off with sum wire left 2 soldier onto the rb loom wire,

the loom plug mite be tricky.... if theres da same number of wires to the loom from the 1jz and the rb it shud be easy

do the custom mounts bolt up to the RB20 cross member? full aftermarket computer would easially be the way to go about it, instead of splicing, cutting and correcting with OEM looms.

i might do some sums and see what comes up :(

best price i could do for a 1jz manual half cut was 3k from a jzx81

btw my 2JZ in aristo made 255rwkw with an SAFC tune, exhaust and FMIC and thats through and autobox :(

would be easy another 20rwkw with a manual

A31: 3K for a manny hc from a JZX81 is f**king cheap man...has the right sump config you need too :D

what about it?

the inlet is no dramas whatsoever...as for the exhaust well a 1JZ has the dumps in the centre of the engine leaving you PLENTY of room for a decent front pipe and exhaust, if youre going a big single there shouldnt be any dramas either :thumbsup:

just asking because i wanted to know :laugh:

some interesting info here. ive been wanting to do a 2jz cefiro conversion for quite a while now, but have been told by people (who arent very credible mind you) that it will cost an arm and a leg. may there just jealous :laugh:

given that it drops straight in, and ive even been told u can use standard mounts, and the loom is available, i cant see how hard it could be?

im not including labour mind u, im a cheapass d.i.yer as well

dude you cant use stock mounts...you need to buy the 2Jizzle mounts...

loom for swap is expensive and not worth it...get an aftermarket comp and be happy :(

    • I like they don't raise their hands into the air when they shift their sequential boxes, seems to be a thing here in Australia lol...
    • I'm not normally one for posting random videos, but I thought we'd all appreciate the honesty about how broken our cars tend to be lol. Genuine skyline life here.   
    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
