do you have any idea what sort of gearbox you're going to use?
you hoping to keep 4WD, or going to go back to RWD?
have you measured the engine bay to see if the 1jz will fit?

Apparently Hilux transmissions are very similar to the R154, so if you use a 1JZ bellhousing it will just bolt up. That makes the job a lot easier!
