true - 3sgte - good motor!!!
they also used a yahama head on the 1JZ (which is the 2.5litre straight six). they say the head is better than the 2jz head, so guys swap the heads out on their 2jz's, and they called it a 1.5JZ or something.
apparently makes huge power?

Gearbox bolts? How hard can it be to find? Is it a special size? Maybe someone can help.
Would like to see your car go, if it wasnt for wanting to keep the body and engine the same make, I would also have gone for the 2JZ, can aperantly make close to 500kw on std internals. Getting all that power to the ground might be a problem.
