Has anyone done this before or have experience?

I understand the have different engine mounts, heavy duty gear boxes, which were longer to, so im trying to source a heavy duty box to fit in my truck if anybody knows of one?

Just wondering if people could advise of potential problems doing this? And are the 94 3L D Turbo engines any good?

I've dropped a 96 3.0 1KZ into my 93 2L-TE Surf and theres quite a bit too it.

You'll need the 1KZ engine mounts + complete engine loom + ecu, exhaust + radiator etc..

The old loom will need complete striping... dash... the whole lot !!

Get into it :)

Do you think the improve in performance was worth the work? how does the fuel consumption compare to the 2l-te?
