Engine swap

how hard is it to put a jdm 2jzgte motor in an american 1993 lexus gs 300 and what changes would i have to make to make it work—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.156.162.177 (talk • contribs) 21:33, 7 February 2006 (UTC).[reply]

it would be fairly easy. best thing to do is buy the front clip of the vehicle you are getting the engine from. that way you would have all the little things like various clips and trim pieces. other than that, it should bolt right in (i think). also, get the wiring harness, transmission and driveline.

Redaction of 2JZ-GTE

To the user who redacted my rewrite of the 2JZ-GTE section: thank you, but it is encyclopedic beyond reason for a relatively small section.

FYI: Whoever provided the false/ineffective data prior to my revision must have been mental. Whatever you see in this section was provided by me. Citations could not be made for lack thereof (could I cite my brain?).—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Setsunakute (talk • contribs) 19:22, 31 July 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I think citing your brain is original research so it's not acceptable. I don't question what you wrote (I'm not the one who altered it), but it's a lot harder to protect the article from vandalism and misinformation without sources other editors can check.~ Dusk Knight 22:31, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

2JZ-GE

The article says the 2JZ-GE was available on the Supra only until 1998. Was the naturally aspirated Supra not available in Japan after then?~ Dusk Knight 22:31, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

3S-GTE's in JGTC JZA80s

When the JZA80s were introduced to the JGTC, the JGTC JZA80s were powered by bored out 3S-GTEs right from the start. Toyota switched to a tuned version of the 3UZ-FE for the Supra for the 2004 season onward. —Preceding unsigned comment added by HashiriyaGDB (talk • contribs) 00:07, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing of output figures

Please keep this section clean--it is, after all, a rather oft-visited article--by omitting references of output figures. It's already well-known that the engine is notorious for high output in tuner culture, but it isn't the only engine in the world that is capable of it. So don't glorify the 2JZ block; avoid the juvenile "has been known for... 1600HP" et al. This gives Japanese motoring a poor reputation of very primitive tuning principles. --Setsunakute 20:01, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
