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.
