Check this out. For those who are on a BUDGET and would like to boost your 2jz GE read this. So basically you can do this for 1600 bucks easy. Here are the following parts you will need. Cxracing Intercooler kit Cxracing 2jz GE NA-T kit Boost/AFR/Oil temp gauges 5 PSI wastegate Spring You have 2 options drill and tap the oil pan on the block and or drill and weld a 10AN Steel Bung adapter to the lower oil pan (I currently am running a 10AN steel bung on my oil pan and it feeds oil to the turbo just fine. This option is cheaper) And that's it! You can run everything without touching the ECU or the rods. The ECU will take up to 6 PSI and that's it if you go over you will fuck up your engine and lean it out and begin to experience fuel cuts! So a good 5 psi spring is safe and you will be able to run the car as usual and the 2jz will be woken! Happy Boosting!

Faaaacts bro and niiiice choice, every one bashes it but if u want to build a 2jz just get a ge, all 2jz’s accept the same rods, pistons and cams, vvti or non-vvti respectively. Or you could simply get a non-vvti motor (has same rods as the gte but different pistons) from the 90’s lexus 2j cars and swap the vvti head on it and boom 700hp capable motor
@haroldcampos96613 жыл бұрын
Although the older non-vvti blocks were better for boosting. As these 2jz cars are taken off the road, a lot of these motor will have to end up somewhere. I like to imagine they all get rebuilt for boost.
@tagallstar3 жыл бұрын
Thats a super good point, you’re right, eventually any JZ would need to be rebuilt for power or even simply reliability
@haroldcampos96613 жыл бұрын
On my 2jz-ge, I had new timing belt, seals, and anything that spins replaced on the front of the motor. If I’m not so bad to it, it could probably last a long time without needing one! I’m in the middle of building my first motor as well. to build a subaru motor that came naturally aspirated sohc and that’s going to be more spec’d with machining of the cylinders with a nice hone, forged rods and forged lower compression pistons, an sti nitrided crank and a super damper and arp head studs. hoping to make 300hp! aluminum blocks are a pain!!!

The weak point of the 2jz is if you put anything that’s not distilled water and the oem red toyota coolant, it will start pitting and rusting inside and possibly overheating.
