    For everyone asking, I've linked the exact harness and ECU kit I purchased from ebay in the video description. Not sponsored! But I do like the kit!

    Love the UZ swap! These motors (1uz, 2uz, 3uz) are very underrated in my opinion. I just 300k on my 2uz and it runs super smooth, checked valve clearance when I did timing belt at 270k and all valves were right in the middle of factory spec still. I’ve had great luck with reliability, and those 1UZ’s can make some good power on stock internals
