G'day mate, I put a 1J in my brothers cressida at the beginning of the year, we used a JZX-83 1J and auto box, & as far as engine conversions go it wasn't really hard.
1. Tailshaft. At first we used the standard cressida shaft, with the new yoke weled onto the front of it, and that worked pretty good for a while. But the rear shaft has a rubber dampener built into it, & eventually the shaft starts twisting, & as it does this it also gets shorter, pulling the centre bearing out of its bracket & the yoke out of the back of the box. We were getting a weird clunking on deceleration, & ended up getting a new solid shaft made up for it.
I have no ideas about adapting different shafts, sorry about that.
2. Speedo. We had the ever faithful Mos do all our wiring, & he simply pulled out the electronic speedo drive from the gearbox & screwed in the original speedo drive from the old gearbox, then wired the computer up to use the electronic speedo sender in the dash. Dunno how yours is different?
3. Water pump. Not sure about using a 2j pump, as far as I know there's a 1J pump without the hydraulic fan pump available from Toyota for $200. And make sure you change it before the engine's in the car.
We're still running the original pump with the hydraulic lines looped to a power steering reservoir.
