I did this with a junkyard bought 2jge.
New bearings, rings, valve seals, lapped the valves, gte headgasket.
The engines compression ratio is half a point higher than a Gte.
Megasquirt 2 ecu, t4 turbo, 15psi on thr wastegate.
Damn thing pulls like a freight train. 💪🏾💪🏾

*5-6 years ago, a 2JZ GTE was around 4k. During the pandemic, they skyrocketed to their prices today at around 8k. But now everyone knows that the 2jzge is everywhere in America, and it comes with a car for about 2-5k on average*

[Devil]

What sucks is how the price for GTE skyrocketed. I wish i had just got started on a swap project like 6-7 years ago vs debating it now, i played myself lol. It’s hard justifying $6k-$8k for a jdm gte motor and still need a trans and all the work, NA-T might just be the play nowadays

[JustPhilTv]

One thing that’s important to mention. Compression ratio is a large factor. Ge is high compression

Make videos for your GS300 build. So we can watch your magic on it. All the best & have a great life.

I’ve seen on many forums online the internals between the GTE and GE are exactly the same aside from the piston tops

2 of my friends are 2jz guys I'm a rotary guy myself but one has a se300 na/t build with a cd009 trans and the other has a 350z with a 2jzgte swap both run amazing but my rotary swapped forester still pulls on them by a car or 2 every time but at the end of the day I'll be rebuild mine at 80k miles because rotary problems while they can just keep going

[mr.carguy]

Ahh. Toyota inline 6 cars. They ALWAYS pull to the right when doing burnouts. 💨 💨
I love it!!

[RaulRodriguez-lgmt]

Nice I found a Lexus sc300 I’m ab to swap everything from that car to my mini truck

[PhillyDee]

Two different engines....but how did the 2jz....compare to the 1UZ-FE v8 as far as strength and reliability?

[heyitsfranklynn]

No way. I 2jzge swapped my mk3 supra "on a budget." I can build and boost it later, right? Im like 15k in and its still being tuned.

When we getting a part 2 I’m looking to build my GS

Hello BCG,
What you asking to sell and install a Supercharger on a SC400?

[robertmontalvo]

The 2JZ will never truly be an LS killer. Just for the simple fact that. For the price of the junkyard 2JZ. You can get a junkyard LS and turbo it. 2JZ is just too expensive to build now

[Awesomehh]

Arp studs require a line bore which adds up on price just saying

[meechgstupid]

I know you’ve done the LS460 motor but can you do a good build video for those with the 1uz? Over engineered v8 with forged internals just as bulletproof as the 2jzGTE

[dannyis_]

you forgot to mention that the non vvti 2j comes with the same pistons and rods as the GTE and will be cheaper to get those instead of looking for GTE pistons and rods

[xannnnax]

my homeboy just sold me his 2jz ge and trans for $250, it is now my mission to build a race car

[Fernandonelu]

How much for everything you mentioned just in parts not labor?

[Rokasas]

Porting head? Valvetrain? Why buy forged pistons, forged rods, aftermarket cams and keep stock head...
