They are: Sump Clearance - made custom steel sump in new location Oil Pickup - made new pickup to suit new location Engine Mounts - made custom mounts using VL rubbers on bottom Electricals - fitted 1JZ computer in same location as VL computer Speedo & tacho - was lucky and had an analog half-cut which made the swap almost direct connection for these. Exhaust - can only fit 3" dump pipe past steering box Gearlever location - cut new hole and bend gear lever to suit. There are also the usual mods required for this swap including custom tailshaft, radiator etc. Other problems are that the oil gauge and temp gauge must operate at a different voltage than the VL ones. The temp gauge runs very hot on the gauge and the oil gauge shows full pressure when running. I can't get to the oil pressure sender to change it now without pulling the engine half out of the car. Change yours before fitting the engine. The results are well worth the effort. The power from a worked 1JZ far outperforms anything for the same dollars. Doing most of the work yourself you can fit a 1JZ for under $5000 in stock form including buying the half-cut. I assume that the VS would be slightly wider under the bonnet than the VL. There are problems getting to the oil filter - you may want to fit a remote filter while the engine is out of the car. The weight of the motor is another consideration - it is very heavy when compared to the RB30 that came out. It will almost certainly be heavier than the V6 motor. [Report message to a moderator]
