QUOTE (smkr3w @ Jul 10, 2013 - 12:55 PM)  I forgot about the immobilizer.. that was the other issue the mr2 guys had QUOTE (kurt95gt @ Jul 10, 2013 - 8:38 AM) How much taller than a 1mz is the 2gr?? A e153 is a must I'm guessing with the 2gr too isn't it. What the rough cost of a basic 2gr swap? Are the gears turnin in your head now?  The gears have been turning for awhile This car isn't stopping at a 1mz The 1mz is just the starting point..... -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

No lag with a supercharger, and it makes a cool whirling sound.

sc'ing your 1mz puts you in the 2gr ballpark.
Smaay couldn't do a 2gr. No way to get around AT codes with the 2gr. He's in California, so it wouldn't get past inspection with codes. |

Kurt, a 2GR will require a ton of work and it will be expensive. if you are looking to upgrade, just get a 3MZ and run it with the 1MZ electronics like I did. you will NOT be disappointed. a 2GR will require wiring, and the engine (2400 +) 3MZ engines i see all day long on car-part for about 700 bucks
