Hi Benen, when I installed a 1G-GTE into a RA28, I used 1G-GZE engine mounts, with the standard 18RC isolation mounts. I used a 4mm spacer under the RH isolation mount.
I have seen aftermarket isolation mounts, which appear to be a little thicker than Toyota's, which I could have used, if I had one on hand.
The reason for the spacer/larger mount, is to gain clearance between the stock exhaust dump/Ox sender and the steering box.
Yes I re-strapped the radiator to move the core forward by about 10mm. This was purely to get a pair of 10" thermo fans between the engine and radiator.I was not using A/C. The Standard 1G intercoler was fitted low, in front of the radiator. The only body mod, was a hand roll to the top of the front apron.
When I did the 1JZ-GTE VVTi into the RA23, I put the thermos out front, and shifted the core back 15mm. Again no A/C, but this time with a bigger custom intercooler
Hope this helps.
cheers Chuck.
