Were you also able to get your gauges functioning as well. We are about to finish up the testing on our LSX harnesses incorporating the stock gauges and should be able to adapt our 2jz harnesses to do the same.

Question for Travis... Is your 2jz have a front or rear facing oil pan? Is there any clearance issues associated with either oil pan while using the swap kit?

i am using the front sump...it has no issues and sits higher than the VQ's pan did....as for the rear sump, it will not fit due to the crossmember...

Tony did say he has a front sump for sale if anyone doing the swap needs one!
