Dude this video was beyond informative. I thank you for all the time and patience you put into this video describing step by step all the important stuff. I'm going with a 1j swap in my IS300 as well. Much more affordable and all the 2jzgtes come with the 6 speed aristo automatic tranny and the 6 speed manual is like 10gs!! But the 154 most likely comes on the 1j or at least is only like 5-1500 to buy which is much more feasible and original. I know I could put the 154 on a 2j but I like how the 1j is a single turbo and i see a ton of 2js going to single turbo. Beautiful car brotha thanks for inspiration!!
