I know I've said it already but I'm so thankful for your vids. You're doing the same build I plan on doing myself so these are just priceless. Also hoping these save me some forum lurking lol Keep em coming!
Be careful when tightening the cam cover bolts...don't go nuts, just lightly tighten the bolts and use some sealant for the back as oil tends to seap out over time
Also, if you’re swapping into an ETCS-i car (later IS300s and GS’s) that’s probably a better choice. I have a 2004 GS300 that I’m planning to do a 1JZ swap into, and I’m pretty set on an ETCS-i version.
maf goes on the side that says etcs, which is actually the intake side. the side with the turbo is the exhaust side. other than that, the motor looks decent externally. good luck with the project.
Your 100% wrong, MAF is an air flow meter, Measuring air flow into the car before the turbo. It sits on the turbo side usually just after the air intake.
Debating vvti or nonvvti. Heard vvti is an interference motor with the timing belt, what are your opinions about it? I want the vvti but being an interference motor I’m a little concerned
I ended up using duel electric fans, hey do you still have the old turbo and if so do you want to part with it, my turbo is leaking oil big time, it's only a matter of time before it goes kaput.
good motor choice.Ut I like all the charm of the L28 slightly warmer over. I really enjoy naturally aspirated dual carb Z motors. I also love love love my license.the stock motor warmed up has all the power Indeed for the street and occasional track driving. And is very very very low-cost and maintainable to service with out computer to check the computer no relays and multi sensors.no CPU...My choice is a analog vintage car. Good luck with your drive chain source nothing like HP!
Eduardo Alvarez not any more, able racing here where I live likes the VVTi over the non VVTi because of the ability to come into boost quicker ... anyone who says they have trouble tuning VVTi I wouldn’t let them touch anything ..
Stewart Motoring wow cause I had a 2003 Camry and it was burning oil after 120 k miles you think I could have swap it and do I need to change the tranny

A lots of 1jz selling at jdm store and most cannot be trusted because no one knows exactly km on it. I bought parts from jdm store and most parts they sell are junk.
hey man. been watching your vids nice work on the body work, your biting off more than I would of. where did you get the 1j and what did you pay for the package? I'm building a 78 280z. I would like to upgrade motors some day pics @sicripp78
Thank you! Got it from an eBay importer JDM shop USA. All together shipped, I paid 4200. I actually talked them down a bit too. One thing I forgot to mention in the video is front/rear sump. It was very hard finding a vvti rear sump and r154 together. The one I bought was only one on eBay, which is why I paid dearly..
So what exactly makes Drive by Wire hard to be used? I kinda want to go 1JZ for a swap and don't mind Drive by Wire but if it's something that would make it a headache to be used then I would like to know before I go 1JZ over a 5.3

Etcsi is fine to buy it’s only $18.99 to convert it to work with cable throttle
Yup I was looking at one from driftworks
Does that work with a standard ECU?
thats the kicker it doesnt work with the stock ecu unless you know how to disable it which i cant find that information i been looking

Vvti is not interference or does not detonate if you mess up the timing until you have an upgraded cam
VVTI or Non VVTI I would like to have the option of 600hp in the future.. i have a 240z Datsun 1972-ish(not sure about the year).
Both will make that power with modest upgrades. Vvti biggest difference is quicker power band down low on rpm
Built Not Bought TV Ok thanks man i chose the non vvti version as i plan on going high hp and forging it!!
I was thinking about 1jz swap my dad car because the fuel consumption is pretty bad, how is the fuel consumption on 1jz??
Good question, I suggest reviewing the cars fuel economy these engines came out of
all i want to know if jzx100 or jzs171 the same or not.

Devil Z! Would actually love to build a high speed precision driving machine.
Can you put it in a mk2 Supra ?
How much power are you aiming for?
Watch dyno video
2:42 what happens if it doesn’t say anything
Then it may have been replaced or letters cleared off. Have to look at other clues like the ecu. The ecu will have its own additional plug for etcsi
Does this engine coming with twin turbo or single turbo?
Single
How about the front or rear sump?
No difference in performance. You just need to know if you need front or rear sump to fit your cars steering rack/crossmember
Built Not Bought TV Thank you. Do you have any video of how to wire it up?
Yea, watch my first startup video. I go over wiring
Is that jz oil pan a rear sump? Whats needed to fit in a 280z
Rear sump
my mans said antifreeze piping
You're now at 2,000 subscribers.. 👍
what website did you find this complete engine on?
Ebay
Is the trans 5 or 6 speed thks
5 speed r154
really helpful thanks so much
Imma put one of these in my Yodahome
Gracias
How about fuel consumption? VVTI vs Non VVTI
No idea. Who cares about mpgs? Lol
Vvti harder to tune im told compared to non vvti. Mpg vvti get a decent amout more mpg
Eduardo Alvarez not any more, able racing here where I live likes the VVTi over the non VVTi because of the ability to come into boost quicker ... anyone who says they have trouble tuning VVTi I wouldn’t let them touch anything ..
What were the compression test results?
All around 165. Cold cranks
Since it's a Nissan 280Z I would have went with an RB25DET Neo.
Can you put that in a 2015 Camry Se 6 speed
Yea of course
Stewart Motoring wow cause I had a 2003 Camry and it was burning oil after 120 k miles you think I could have swap it and do I need to change the tranny
@@mikemuniz9808 no it bolts right in it's all Toyota brand.
VVTI is Toyota Vtec
Yeah, I've heard that comparison before
CK_32 vtec moves the actual cam to a higher duration/lift lobe at a certain rpm, while vvt advances or retards timing.

VVTL is Toyota's VTEC. VVTi is different.
Vvti is different vvtli is toyota vtec
