Vehicle Fitment

This 2GR-FE JDM Long Block is a direct replacement for the following USDM models:

• 2007-2015 Lexus RX350

  Installation & Technical Notes

  To ensure 100% compatibility and avoid Check Engine Lights (CEL), follow these JDM-to-USDM conversion steps:

  • The Long Block Rule: This engine is sold as a Long Block (Block and Heads). You must transfer your original USDM intake manifold, exhaust manifolds, sensors (Crank/Cam), and wiring harness.

  • Oil Cooler Note: Some Highlander models come with an external oil cooler. If your original engine has one, ensure you swap the oil filter housing/cooler assembly to this JDM block. (Secondary Oil Pan May Need To Be Swapped)

  • Emissions & Vacuum: Use your original USDM throttle body and vacuum lines to maintain factory emissions standards and ensure proper idle relearn.

  • Essential Maintenance (Pre-Install):

    • Water Pump: This is a known service item on the 2GR-FE; it is much easier to replace while the engine is out.

    • Spark Plugs: Replace with Denso FK20HR11 Iridium plugs.

    • Seals: Replace the Rear Main Seal and Front Crank Seal.

    • VVT-i Lines: Inspect the VVT-i oil lines; if they are the older rubber style, upgrade to the all-metal Toyota OEM lines.

  • Fluid Capacity: Requires approximately 6.4 quarts of 0W-20 or 5W-30 synthetic oil (verify according to your original oil cap).
