Doing similar stuff I did a head refresh on my 2jzgtevvti aristo engine checked bearings on bottom end looked brand-new so slapped some arps back in that same with the head bolts new oil pump rear sump oil pan phr cast manifold then I'm building on the side a gevvti block with ge non vvti rods going to sell that engine to pay for the cd009 adapter kit already have transmission 370 all in due time
If the 2jzge is non vvti, it has the same strength as a gte bottom end. Theyre basically the same rods/pistons. Most guys usually claim 700 to be the safe limit for oem 2jzge non-vvti and 2jzgte internals
@@sketchisolutions6728 I tried to tell people for twenty years. They kept buying GTE blocks because they were sure they were better somehow, even back when GE Non-VVTI blocks were $500.
I’m looking at doing a1.5 build for my mk3?Supra. I have a non vvti 1j and I’m looking at a non vvti na 2j block. Would I be good to send that block unopened? It came out of a running sc
Depends how healthy the 2j bottom end is. If the bearings are good, came out with good compression, id say send it. Obviously i would do some baseline stuff while you have the motor out, like main seals, oil pump, etc. Shit you dont wanna find out is on its last leg once you get it done and running. 2jzgenon vvti bottom end should be able to hold close 700. But youll be getting into gambling territory there.
Oh man, honestly im not sure at this point, i havent kept a running total, and ive changed pathways a few times with things. Id say currently on the sc300 ive got close to 8 or 9k into everything, but i have a lot of parts right now to build the 2j bottom end. Manley rods and pistons etc.
It can be done cheaper man, lots of people use the stock 2jge non-vvti rods and pistons to hit upwards of 700hp. I wanted as much security as i can get with my goals. I have a lot left still to buy as well though. 272 cams, springs/retainers, entire turbo set up, 1300cc injectors, another fuel pump, handfull of extra sensors, and lots of other small odds and ends. Its definitely a long process if you dont have a pile of cash to throw at it all at once.
@@sketchisolutions6728 im personally not tryna push more than 650 because uk roads are very small and the car i want to build would mainly be used for drifting. But when red flags start appearing ill end up doing it
Yeah i figured that was probably bullshit but ahwell. Ill prolly end up doing a gte pump anyway, gonna be doing an oil cooler and want to make sure everythings proper.
I just finished my 1j swap after getting tweakd harness yesterday, going to buy a 2j block to build overtime for when I decide to go 1.5
Nice man! What chassis did you swap into?

Hell yeah man! I was really bummed the 1j blew up but is what it is, dumb luck.
@@sketchisolutions6728 yeah that's why I opted for the 2jzgte before they was 7k lol cause they are a newer engine but my first plans was to go 1j
Have a list part to 1.5?
So i can use 1jz gte vvti water pump, can someone confirm? 😬
Exellent information there. How much power can a 2jz ge handle when mated with 1jz gte head keeping 2jz ge pistons and rods?

@@sketchisolutions6728 I have access to 2jzge only on my part of the world.
As long as its non-vvti, thats all that matters!
@@sketchisolutions6728 Thanks bro

Did you figure out any more information on the 1jz oil port in regards to if it can be left alone or it needs to be welded/machined?
I haven't touched it and no issues for almost 2 years now. This topic has come up fairly frequently in discussion and 99% have had no issues.
@@sketchisolutions6728 awesome thanks !
What your whole budget? Not including the 1jz

Gte oil pump period
Ive spent months trying to pull this info from people and it is a legit 50/50....
@@sketchisolutions6728 yeah ik but the info of pushing the front main out is BS lol

@@sketchisolutions6728 yep don't want to do it twice lol
