#Mr.Stance :
Uz's come with automatic tranny and the best tranny to put is the 6-speed getrag from the 2jz , and those gearboxes are expensive , you can buy a very nice car with that money , and i didn't mention the clutch , flywheel , all the conversion and the ecu swapping and programming , at in the end of the day , uz's didn't have much aftermarket support , cuz are engines for offroad suv's like the 2uz from landcruisers , or are engines from luxury sedans like the 1uz or 2uz from the celsior/ls400
And is a v8 , that means heavy front af
3SGE , 1jz or maybe 2jz or an RB would be great because are inline 6's (except for the 3s that is a 4 banger , so more light) and the car is designed for use inline 6 , so the w8 distribution will be almost the same or better...
My opinion : 1JZ-GTE / 3S-GE-T (i put ge-t because the engine originally is n/a but the ideal thing is to put a turbo on it because o the smaller displacement) /RB25-26 DET/T
