6/5/15- Update!

The motor got here last week and me and the guys at the shop were able to throw it in. The 2uz was actually out of a Lexus, not the Toyota as the ad had led me to believe. We gave it a full rebuild including new gaskets (oem of course) and all fresh fluids. About 2 days ago, all of the drivetrain parts that Mister_Softee sent over made it to the shop, and made it's way onto the car yesterday. Upon the first test fire we found something out.. this motor sounds like an absolute monster!





Today me and team took the car over to MPI to run a couple of tests and to break in the new motor. Mitch threw in a used TRD differential for this test day, And since he is the better drifter (currently lol) I let him take the first hit. I am so excited to get behind the wheel of this baby when it is closer to completion. I am still looking for a Dif that fits a Toyota JZ drivetrain if any of you have one available for cheap! Here are pics from testing today:
