I have a EXCELLENT condition 89 Cressida and another thats a little rough. I want to see about an engine swap to get the 1jz or 2 jz. What would be the easiest to put in my car if im doing the work myself? Wiring??? I am a Certified Honda M/C mechanic so I do have a clue.Just replaced the stock head on my ex MX 83.Proball shoud of did the engine swap instead of the Blown gasket job?? Thanks Mark

ok before you are blasted by members make a intro thread and there is a search button on here members will suggest you use it but it doesnt matter which jz you go with they both fit snug just know your wiring and get jzx81 mounts or mounts from 7mx63 cause he is making mount mock ups for the jz motor in the x83 but other then that use the search button on the forum it helps alot
