What you are buying

Unleash legendary Toyota performance with this ultimate JDM 1JZ-GTE Non-VVTi Twin Turbo Engine and R154 5-Speed Manual Transmission Swap Package. Imported directly from Japan, this premium full powertrain conversion is the gold standard for high-horsepower drift, track, and street builds. The Non-VVTi 1.5JZ and 1JZ platform is globally renowned for its ultra-robust factory forged internals, heavy-duty parallel twin-turbo setup, and a high-revving cylinder head configuration that handles abuse far better than single-VVTi variants. Paired with the legendary, bulletproof R154 5-speed manual gearbox, this complete turn-key swap package comes absolute with the factory ECU and un-cut wiring harness, making it the perfect engine drop-in kit for your Nissan 240SX, Toyota Supra, Lexus IS300, or SC300 project.

Installation & Project Conversion Notes

  • Shifter Positioning: Depending on your target chassis (e.g., standard vs. extended housing for SC300 or Supra MK4), minor R154 shifter tripod housing modifications may be required for perfect interior center console alignment.

  • Wiring Setup: While the engine harness is complete and uncut, dropping this setup into a non-native USDM chassis will require a standalone patch harness or professional wiring integration to link the JDM engine plugs to your factory chassis dash cluster.

  • Clutch & Flywheel: Includes factory-spec used clutch components (when available). However, installing a fresh heavy-duty performance clutch kit, rear main seal, and fresh transmission gear oil is highly recommended prior to dropping the unit in.

  • Maintenance Recommendation: For peace of mind on high-performance builds, we recommend renewing the timing belt, water pump, valve cover gaskets, and spark plugs before final installation.
