Hello,

I'm still trying to source a good quality 2JZ-GE engine (non VVTI) for my Soarer JZZ31. Does anybody know a reliable wrecker who might have one in stock?

Cheers,
Toby

Dunno. I have one here, but its not worth the freight.

BMI send a lot of happy customers stuff to the NT. At least two workshops up here buy from them for customers.

Thanks Aaron. Anyone else who would recommend Brisbane Motor Imports? Apparently a guy on supraforums bought an engine from them which kind of blew up on start up. BMI advertises a 3 months warranty but he was told that the warranty is void because the engine was started...

I have a 2JZ-GE vvti at home with around 100k's on it. It came out of my Lexus GS300 when I did the 2JZ-GTE vvti swap. If interested call me on 0400 200 647.

I wouldn't mind a VVTI motor in my Soarer (which is non VVTI) but apparently it requires a fair bit of modifications to make it fit?

Im off topic here, but, Colin, have you any info on here or in another thread, or even another forum about the swap? Im looking at a personal import JZS161 at the moment, but have thought about doing the GTE-vvti swap as well.

Wanna sell yours :-)

Yeah, the video didn't work for me either. But the story itself makes me a bit cautious to buy from BMI. Just need some encouragement from people who had good experience with them. Anyone?
