Used Supra engines from Japan. Are they OK?

When you look at a 1JZ next to the 2JZ in the mark 4 supra they look almost the same. This is because they are from the same family the 1JZ was the start of the 2JZ. Most of the parts for the 2JZ here in the states will fit the 1JZ and they have a metal head gasket from the factory. Pretty much from what I have seen most of the turbo kits for the 2JZ also say they are for the 1JZ as well and I have pulled the manifolds and the bolt hole match up. But there is actually a lot of stuff out there for that motor just have to go to the right place like here www.RHDjapan.com .
