If you want plug and play, you'll need a kit for a GE. It'll be more expensive because there's more parts to it, so keep looking.
This kit will include most of what you need, though, so if you want to, buy that and then gather the rest of the parts as you find good deals and such.

Fwiw, I agree with supra90turbo. You need to install a proper 2jz-GE kit from a reputable seller, such as this one:
http://www.powerhouseracing.com/file...rbo%20Upgrades

Imho if you go with a cheap no-name kit off ebay, you're likely to find it's badly made, doesn't fit, doesn't come with all the parts&pieces you need, doesn't perform, and isn't reliable.

Besides all that, the kit you linked to is for an Mkiv Turbo 2jz-gTe (not an normally aspirated/non-turbo). In other words, it absolutely for sure will not fit your car. If you wanted to fit it you'd have to start by cutting that header apart, re-bending the pipes, and weld a 2jz-ge exhaust flange on it. You'd have to get LOTS of custom-bent pipes for your intercooler, and even then it probably still wouldn't fit right. Starting with this kit is not a practical option, imo.

GE heads are different than GTE heads on the 2JZ's?
If that's true, that sucks.... AFAIK they were the same...

No they are different...significantly different. One has a distributor and the other has coilpacks. One has exhaust ports angled to spool up twin turbos, and the other has evenly spaced, straighter exhaust ports. I'm not sure where you heard/read that they were/are the same, but that source is incorrect.

What you posted above is 100% correct: "If you want plug and play, you'll need a kit for a GE."
