1GGZE conrods are the same length as 1GGE, only thicker. I would think that the same would apply to 1GFE.

VEry expensive if you bought them new I would expect. A 1GGZE minus blower should only set you back a couple of hundred though. Just ring around the engine importers.

ok thanks for the advice..
found JE forged pistons (new) and 1gze conrods for my car $1440 in total. I think it's a good price.

That sounds way too cheap!!
It should be at least $1440 for the JE's let alone new 1ggze rods as well!!

there was a shop in brisbane that planned on turbocharging their is200 as well, everything was ordered. but in the end the guy decided to ditch the 1gfe and installed a 2jzgte into the is200. So the pistons and rods are useless to him now.
