Yeah, I think its a great idea. I'd personally just blow the 2JZ if I already had it, but contrary to ANYTHING either 67Bird or LadyDeath say, I wouldnt laugh it it. He probably thinks "theres no replacement for displacement" which again, is stupid to be around here for. With exactly half the bore and stroke of a 80's Mustang I can have a better, faster car (1JZ) and still have whatever money I'd lose to the Fjord falling apart to safely mod the bottom end past the Mustang. Even IF you have a 67 muscle car, you dont own the road, MAYBE the track but whats the point of having a muscle car own the track when you could build your own dragster to make it faster?

racing is not about how fast you can go, it is how fast you can get from one point to another! and no i dont think that there is no replacement for displacment, a bigger motor is better for domestics, but in imports case, it is not. and just for the info, i plan on putting a turbo on my 400 in the future  so dont try to classify me. i respect what needs respect. but if you have a 2jz already in a car, y would you want to but a 1jz in it? more parts for the 2jz and cheaper! thats y alot of people these days are putting chevy 350's into a wankel! parts are cheaper for it. and i must say to the person that said that they could mod there 1jz cheaper than a 80's mustang?  you are very mistaken. the fox body mustang is the mustang used most by drag racers than any other car around! that is because of the ford 5.0 and the fox body. those two together are a deadly combination. cheap to make power and mod the suspension. but the same for the 2jz, around $2000 gets you about 400 hp at the wheels and 11's in the quarter. i wont go on anymore for now. i wait to c what yall have to say these remarks

well said!!  sorry about the comments i made earlier, i was under the impression the the 1jz was a much less powerful engine! i did a little research and see now that i am wrong! i appologize! and i am all for you doing the ijz swap especially since you said to be different! that is y i have a 68 firebird over a camaro! everywhere you go you see fricking camaros! but like i said sorry about the insults, from now on i will do some research b4 i go talk bad about something!
