This is a sweet ass build. My truck looked about as clean as yours when I bought it...

 

thanks, I cant wait to get it finally finished at lease the swap done.

 

The wire harness I got from the donor truck and getting the rest from ORS. ORS was quoting me about 650 for the harness which would make the 5vz harness plug n play...

 

While i wait for my parts to come in, here is what i have done in the mean time. Looking to do the LCE rear brake conversion and just prepping when the time comes. Also Mike at ORS almost has my wire harness complete and it only took him about a week to complete.

 

I have been looking for an r150 shifter, all the junk yards trannys dont have the shifters with them... does anyone have one or know where i can get one?

 

Update:
I finally got around to ordering some headers for the motor, it will be interesting on how they will fit and what i would have to modify. Next week is when i will be making the BIG purchase of the Supercharger, Wire harness, and lots more. Stay Tuned.

 

That driver's side is about the wildest header I can remember seeing. This should get cool in a hurry with a blower...

My 1JZ just showed up today. 3 cheers for engines!

 

Ya crazy right? I just hope that it fits...only time well tell...hell ya 3 cheers for engines!

 

Supercharger officially ordered!!!! and lots of other things as well. While i am waiting on all the parts, i decided to buff, wax and install new rims on the DD. My wifes 07 Toyota Camry Se

 

Nice build man. You really have me interested in this 5vz motor now.

 

So im slowly getting parts in....Today I received my electric fan with controller. I already mounted it to the radiator.

Yotarip- thanks, your build aint to shabby as well.

 

Some more parts coming in... The others should be here sometime next.... Also ordered a transmission as well!

 

Where did you pick up that e-fan?

 

Amazon and only for 50 bucks i believe.

 

Update-
So after coming back from me and my families Vacation back from Cali, i have waiting at the front door some more parts.


Parts - 5 Speed Manual Transmission w/Shift lever, bellhousing, Fork and Trans Mount.
Rear Brake Swap from LCE which is from Little Shop MFG.
Also from the yodajims junkyard is the Soft and Hardline for the Clutch.






Also while i was gone the Supercharger was supposed to be delivered but needed a Sig, so tomorrow I will be picking that up along with other parts.

 

Which tranny, and is it a PITA to mate like a lot of other swaps?

It breaks my heart, the amount of incredible powerplants in the Toyota family that basically refuse to go manual without a huge fight.

 

Last but not least.....here it is the Supercharger, I also picked up the Flywheel as well. Early this morning i went to go pick up the parts as well as drop my rear calipers to get chromed and that should be the last of the chrome plating that i will be doing. After i got back i quickly opened the boxes and started to assembly the supercharger on the block and started to button up everything. Tomorrow i should be getting the wiring harness from Off Road Solutions and get the 7th Injector with spark plug and Tstat. I hope that i can get the motor and trans in this weekend for a test fit, I would be lucky to get this thing up and running by that time.

 

So i got some more parts in today and started to install some parts as well. I had to reseal the front bearing of the tranny, it seems that it was leaking gear oil pretty good. Installed the 7th injector on the supercharger and changed out the old oil and put some fresh oil with filter on the motor. Also installed the new spark plugs that came with the 7th injector and installed the power steering belt. I had to lift the bed up to gain access to the fuel pump to install the more powerful fuel pump to go along with the 7th injector. With that i had to drain the 5 year old gas, Hopefully i can find good use for it. I also ordered a short shifter for the transmission, i hope by this weekend i can drop the motor and trans in for a test fit.

Here are the part i received today




Resealing the Trans and draining whatever gear oil was left.



7th Injector Installed


Installing the new fuel pump for the 7th injector.

 

Naw that the beauty of this swap the 3vz and the 5vz use the same manual trans, so i can use a trans from a 5vz or 3ve with no issues. May run into a hiccup for the reverse lights but thats about it.

 

Beautiful man, that is one sweet looking engine.
