You'll need the 2jz-gte itself (of course), the ecu and primary wiring harness from a LHD (US) Mkiv TT. You'll also need an ignitor, and a resistor pack.

If you source the 2jz-gte from an Aristo, you'll need to get the oil pans for an Mkiv 2jz-gte.

The only things you'd get from a whole RZ front clip vs. a 2jz-gte from an aristo would be the correct oil pan, an ignitor, and a resistor pack. You'd still be missing the correct ECU (US-spec), and the primary wiring harness...although in theory you may be able to use a JDM ecu with a US-spec harness, and JDM speed density (no MAF). I'm not sure if a JDM 2jz-gte supra ECU would mate up to a US-spec harness...some re-pinning may be required *shrug*.

You may also have a driveshaft issue depending on which transmission/diff combo you plan to run.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
