1JZ swap in my 88 fc
I just ordered my 1J from osaka jdm motors and was wondering if anyone has any tips, ideas or anything for a 1J swap into a fc. has anyone ever done this swap? i am just doing this swap til i can save up enough money for a 20B swap, but if i like it then who knows i might just keep it in. but any advice or help or tips are appreciated

just so u know if wanna do a 20 b swap later, this is a complete waist of time and money, im half way through my 1j swap right now. and once its in which it will go in, she pretty theres pretty much no point in swapping it again. all the fabrication to the cross member new drive shaft tranny mounts and wiring..........................i dunno man its up to u

yeah i know but it is going to be awhile until i do the 20b swap. i have my cressida an my 240 to tend to after the 1j. i am thinking more than likely it will be like atleast 4 years until i do my 20b swap. but i understand what you mean.

and i am in the process of turbo/5speed swapping my 5MGE MX73.
I just think that a 1J will be pretty sweet in a fc so i am going for it, i have the running 13b out of the car that i am going to put in a mazda b1800 if i can ever find one.

come on guys, no more help or advice? anything that i need to take extra care into doing or pay extra attention to anything, or is it pretty much a straight forward swap.
were is my best option for getting my mounts, driveshaft and is there any thing else that i need to get that is a have too? what is the deal witht he front sumps and rear sumps? will both fit because i was told a front sump would not fit?
has anyone ever done a 5 speed swap in a mx73 cressida? i am about to takle that when the fc1jz is completed.
alsoo i have a 91 fc shell that is completely stripped. i mean no nothing. no hood, fenders, interior, no suspension no nothing, apparently it has a small rust spot on the frame, but i am sure it could be fixed pretty easily.( i'm guessing i said im no frame expert) anyways someone needs to come this thing, because i have to get rid of it and i really dont want to have to take it to the junkyard and sscrap it because i just cant really bring my self to do it. but ill let it go for 100 bucks obo if its gone quick.
