1JZ / 7M Starter motor compatibility

Ive got a 1jz cressida which has just managed to kill either the fuel pump or ignitor. As it died in a very dangerous spot I used the age old trick or cranking it in gear to get it off the road... in turn im pretty sure killing the starter motor.
Simple question, can you use a 7m or even say a 1G one in its place? I happen to have have easy access to both of those over a 1J one..
Car in question is 1JZ GTE R154 manual cressida.
Cheers,
TJ

Presuming you're talking about the smaller, backgeared one, then you can swap a variety of starters in place of it. I did this yesterday with a 4A(F?) starter, just swapped the cast piece off the front of the 1JZ one onto it, and all was well. Find a Toyota starter that appears to be the same size etc. and you should be able to piece one together.

5M on left, 1JZ on right.
Both bolt up/fit to a 1JZ (auto or manual should not make a difference).
