Customax Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I own a 1997 Toyota Crown Royal Salon 3.0L, I believe Ls400 and the jzs151 is based on more or less the same car. Importantly for me they share some of the same engines and gearboxes.' Engine in the car is the 2jz-ge 220hp, non turbo supra engine. other model came with the ls400 V8 4l engine. ** My goal with the engine swap is to get a car with between 300 - 400hp running on LPG (GAS) Today I have this installed. Engines I am considering is 1. 2jz-gte Turbo supra engine 2. 1jz-gte 2.5l turbo 3. 3UZ-FE (LS 430 engine) 4. 2GR-FSE (lexus is350) 1) Any body done similar swaps with or without LPG? 2) Engines here are sold with gearbox and ECU, will all these engines fit into engine bay? 3) Will I get all instruments to work? 4) What engine should I go with? Anybody how experience with turbo engines on LPG, read somewhere I need a spesial type or my car would be a possible gas bomb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of the 2JZ-GTE, and I think it should fit just fine. Can't tell you about LPG though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't tell you about LPG though... a decision has been made, I went with the 2jz-gte non vvti 3 hours later and the old engine is now out of car! 2jz-ge vvti is now for sale The new heart of the car waiting to get installed, 2JZ-GTE The new diamond in the rough, or engine on the rough floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
