Which one do you like better? 1JZ or 2JZ? Drop a comment below letting us know!

1jz rods would technically be stronger being they are shorter :) ......and the argument starts

Just got my first 1JZ-GTE this weekend. My turbos are almost perpetually spooled. This engine is so smooth.

I would love to have either engine. 1JZ is a really cool swap for any early toyota like the AE86 or early 90's celica

1JZ sounds better and makes decent power still. Back in the day an old D1 drifter had a 1JZ powered Chaser making 900.

I drove a factory standard 1jz in a Soarer and was struck by its incredible smoothness, i remains the only motor I’ve experienced that is as smooth as a 1uz which I chose because I’m a V8 lover(apparently the jz is heavier than the uz?) I’m learning that Toyota’s mission to reduce NVH is parallel to it’s mission to build reliable engines. My thinking is that these motors being so smooth goes hand in hand with their strength. Almost like they don’t rub and shake themselves to bits because they don’t rub and shake. So much smoother than any other engines I’ve experienced. They’re the first engines I’ve called beautiful and I never even knew combustion engines could be this smooth.

The 1jz vvti is an absolute torque monster dude, it has tons of torque down low. I can accelerate uphill in 5th gear at 2000rpm part throttle and out of boost in my 3700lb chaser. I can floor it on the highway going 90kms n hr in 5th and be in boost instantly. I get full boost before 2500rpm and the car hauls ass until around 6500 where it dies out a bit until the 7200rpm limiter. Cams, and a slightly larger stock position turbo with a standalone ecu should see this motor to 350whp, probably equal torque figure, with a similar looking powerband but full power out to 7500rpm.

I'm no car person, but a few months before this, a youtuber car builder was convinced to put a 1J in his wifes car for drifting purposes. It sounds really good and she's getting really good.

i had a 1jzgte in a 95 SC300, now i have a 2jzgte vvti in my 99 SC300.......i prefer the 2jz, but you cant go wrong with either

Can you do a video on difference between vvti & non vvti 2jz ?

The part I've always hated,was ignorant trolls assume a 1j is a piece of 💩 simply because it isn't a 2j😆!! One day,I would love a 1gz swapped Chaser! A 1GZ can be seen as a pair of 1jz's. Love you,man.

How to solve the 7mgte problems: replace head gasket with a MHG (metal head gasket) and torque the head bolts above factory specifications (of ~56lb·ft if i remember) to ~75lb·ft. You also need to either add chimes (I think thats the word in english) to increase the oil pressure, or change the oil pump. The oil pump doesnt make enough pressure at higher rpms which leads to oil starvation. Im preparing to work on a mk3 supra with a 7mgte (since 1jzs are rare... And people like to make em way more expensive. People who've worked with the 7mgte will tell you it has better potential than the 1jz stock bottom, but idk personally

3jz confirmed

hmmmm good info. i might actually get a 1j instead of a 2j now lol. gonna have to change my name to boosted 1j haha

I'll take the 1.5JZ, goodbye✌🏻

One things is for sure, companies are making power out of their engine every time, reliability is its twin. Overkilling its parts for reliability. Later in years, people/builder both from the company and customers finds that a particular engine is kind of strong as they imagined. Now cross cutting comes to play. I'm not saying that first gen engines are greater that the later ones, I'm just pointing out about how most of us desires of power made us hungry. This is subjective, just my opinion if its just okay to give one.

Really like the channel. Keep up the good work man.

Very helpful, is there also a video discussing the difference of the Lexus IS300 2jz-ge VVTI to the Supra 2jz-gte

Awesome video bro

Do a video on a 1jzgte none vvti vs 1jzgte vvti thanks

Series 2 RB25det vs RB25det neo?

NONE The 1 GZ FE is the best engine Toyota has ever produced. Its basically 2 1jz's bolted together. Tho i LOVE 1jz's / 2jz's and 4age's also.

Alright, I’m really interested in getting a 1JZ powered car

1jz is short block .. low end power to mid .. 2jz long block ..high end power .. its depends on how u setup the engine .. but 2jz is square engine is the best for speed .. for drift 1jz low end to mid power ..

That was a great video. .great info that I was curious about

1jz gte vvti 3rd gen didn’t have twins it had a single

Here from RB land to satisfy curiosity about putting 1JZ into GTS-t The block is pretty impressive huh. Bloody shame how they sound tho.... pretty average compared to an RB20/RB25, to put it nicely. How do you make them sound better, more like an RB?

Well done

Prefer the low end torque. When i step on it, i want it to go.

You're talking about sequential turbo's & showing pics of a compound setup.

1jzgte in a 260z..scream!

2jzgte is better in every way from the larger displacement to the superior sequential fuel injection. Nobody has ever removed a 2jzgte and replaced it with a 1jzgte... many have removed a 1jz and replaced with a 2jz. Ive owned a 1jz, built a 1.5jz with a big single and had several 2jz’s.

l have done a lot of work on both motors over 1200 hp. The 1jz is weaker in the block and the crank than the 2jz

How can you explain the 1.5JZ GTE with bottom end 2JZ block and the Glorious 1JZ Yamaha Head?

Basically, the 2JZ is just a Stroked 1JZ with a couple of turbos added rather than just one .

If u ask me...in daily driving through city street driving...1jz is better...the fuel consumption not so high and has better response during low to mid rpm...if somehow you're working from city to city or cross states..i'd go with 2jz..you'll feel the difference if u own one of these engine..

Sounds like I should get a 2JZ THEN LOL THANKS

Do 3gr vs 2gr and also 1jz

Dude where would I even be able to order a 1jz from a reputable dealer I wanna put 1 in my 2009 s60

1jzgte all the way, my reasoning is simple but true as had many of both said engines, 1jzgte twin turbo, 1jzvvti single turbo, 2jzgte twin turbo non vvti.first and foremost the 1jzgte sounds much better than a 2jzgte, especially mid to high in the rev range more ballsy something the 2jz engine lost in the extra capacity.second the 1jzgte both variants run much cooler than the 2jzgte (proven many times) the 2jzgte engine is a bigger to keep cool no matter what fans, shrouds, radiator you use they run hot as a 7mgte lolFinally the cost of the 1jzgte twin turbo engine and auto, ecu, harness etc can be had for as little as $500 from a Soarer, try 2jzgte $2500 (twin turbo non vvti) to $3500 (vvti)Also the 1jzgte has more torque in stock twin turbo than a Nissan rb26dett ($4,000 to $5,000)

does 1jz have forged engine block like 2jz?

VQ37VHR vs VR38DETT 🙏🙏

Hello can i fit 1jz engine into an escudo 1996 plz help

Can you do a video on the qr25de???

Didn't understand 1 word I always thought 1 jz meant 1 turbocharger. & 2jz meant 2 turbocharger Whatever

7M is better. according to it's reign of service

I want a 600hp at the wheels car with a 1jz, is that possible to reach?

2jz

1fz is the the older brother of 1jz , 2jz.

1jz is stronger do to shorter rod.

2jz engine durable... Strong

Nah bruh 1.5 jz. 1jz head with 2jz bottom end with cams single turbo 1000cc injectors on e85 revvin to the moon and boost for days

NEITHER-get a barra up ya lol.

Talk about a 1.5jz

1.5jz ??

very good video

Why does nobody talk about the 1.5jz when they talk about jz's??

What about the 1.5 jz

Nx videos sr20de vs sr20ve

2jz is better period lol

Vvti or non vvti ???

I have a 1JZ... wasted my time. Should have gone 2JZ.

looks like your reading a script and never touched a engine in your life

2jz is make with estronger materials look it up

simple answer is 2jz for purists & 1jz/uz for enthusiasts
