Not cheaper anymore as the supply is drying up. Not easier to find as we never got the 1JZ here. Trans doesn't matter as the R154 will bolt to either so long as you have the right bellhousing. The real issue (as usual) is getting everything working (if the dash doesn't 100% work, it's a shit swap IMHO). If you're going standalone to get everything to work, and you're going custom on the turbo install, it's a hell of a lot cheaper use a 2JZ-GE long block and boost it (or build it for boost). The GTE head is nicer but it costs a lot more... |

You can get 1jz's up here all day for 1000-1500$, which in american cash is what, 100$? Buy one up here and ship it down, not hard. 2j's run 4-5000$ without a trans.
