Like someone mentioned its a cost analysis. I'm banking on no stand alone ECU. That's the most expensive part in any engine swap.

IMHO, its not even worth it to shove $20-25k for a 2JZ/LS. Engine swaps are expensive and I hate it but I love it.

We don’t know enough. What oil pump is in it? Are we going to have to worry about oil pressure again? Cost is not worth it if it has the same issues, the power difference is not that substantial enough to justify having the same problems.
