In this episode I figure out what still works on the BRZ and what I need to figure out how to make work. Next I start attaching the engine mounting brackets to the 2JZ and start moving it in place to mount it in the BRZ.

"Idk if it's not grounded it seems a little sketchy" lol
How much more would it cost for a standalone ECU?
I just found your channel and I am VERY GLAD I DID ! Keep up the good work man !! Learning allot from you 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I put a 2jz in a rx8… How do i add power to the original ecu.. I have no idea how to work electrical systems.. My engine is mounted permanent..
I love that you wanted to do this build!
when are you restocking the shop?
Where did you get the 2jz from? And how much hope you don’t mind me asking? New to this channel
Small question , why does the AC have to go ? is it cause of the lack of space ?
Lmao 8:04
for AC and Heater you just need to keep the compressor, evaporator and Heater core, evaporator can go in front of the radiator, heater core most of the time goes under the dash in the firewall and the compressor goes to the engine, use the stock compressor of the 2jz and hook the brz lines, thats it i guess
2nd price pls
We're you at gridlife? I'm pretty certain that I saw you there
these videos have been such a big help, thank you so much for posting this series
Bye Felicia!!!😂
I looked into putting a Electric power steering in my 66 Mustang and found a guy in Iceland that makes a stand alone controller to use on a Saturn Vue EPAS system. I did a quick search on eBay and found one for a toyota. Might work or at least start you on the right path to find a standalone controller. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Prius-04-09-Electric-Power-Steering-Column-Controller-Unit-kit-EPAS-/262400460977?hash=item3d184948b1:g:qVwAAOSw3mpXGlSA&vxp=mtr
is it possible to keep things like air conditioning when doing a swap? or is he just ditching them to cut cost down?
I found a low mileage 2jzgte for $650. Should I buy it?
wait…. battery wasn't the first thing gone?? even if you change a stereo…..
So very curious as to the power steering end result as I am going to be doing a swap soon also
make sure you do an OIL filter relocation or it will be a pain in the ass to change the filter.
have you looked at pure automotive's plug and play kit for thease cars everything works like factory and it mite make the job a bit less of a headache like the mustang. love the show by the way
Chop the topp offf please
If your getting stuck look up backyard built on YouTube he's a 2jz genius he will really help you swap the brz!!
Look at mercedes electric power steering, really easy to do 🙂
Hi, I'm putting power steering in old hot rods of mine, I used to work in a classic rally garage and they use the electric power steering from a Corsa. I also use this set up. I can make a unit that will sit into your existing steering setup by cutting and welding it it…. Then you will only need a live and Earth wire and it should work perfectly for what you need.
Chris I really enjoy your channel. It propably is my favorite channel. I always make sure to click on the ads just to make my own part for you to be able to continue making these videos. Keep up the good work!
Maybe you could fit the engine with the gearbox in attached the. Re fit it once the engine is in place? Loving the build!!!
You should invest in a mic 😉
You need more subs!!!!!
if the power steering is anything similar to the mr2 electric steering because it's such a high draw in power the ecu won't activate untill the engine is started. possibly because it requires in excess of 12v. some of us in the UK have the power steering on a switch. it may be possible to give it its own power feed?
I don't understand why you're losing the heater doesn't have a heater core have an inlet and outlet there's no reason you can't hook the 2JZ up heater core in the not let up to it and retain the heater where in the Pacific Northwest man we have to have a heater to have defrost in the windshield when it rains that's when you want to be drifting anyways Lol
LOL "the motor will probably have to come in and out 5, 6, 7 times…" you mean…the motor will have to come in and out 567 times. HAHA
love this channel. how does he not have more subs than some of the other dudes out there. this is much more entertaining than watching a 350z get wrapped in highlighter yellow ..
A bracket for the brz alternator to fit to the 2jz will prob be the easiest solution
What i don't get, (please explain it to me):
Why do a budget build on a 2JZ? why not tear everything out of the engine bay, put in the 2JZ, twin turbo it (like you did with the mustang, but actually make it work 😉 ) and make a show/track car?
for an alternator you really only need 2 wires, one big going to the battery + and one small wire for the D+, the D+ goes from ignition + to the battery light in the instrument then out to the D+ on the alternator which then grounds it trough the engine, when you start the engine the alternator puts positive current on the D+ thereby eliminating the ground and the light shuts off, that is litterally all that is needed for an alternator 🙂
your heater should work as long as you running hoses to the heater core
