1JZ REVISION HISTORY Generation 1 Block Straight 6 cylinder, iron block 7 bearings, 2 bolt caps, fully counterweighted crank

86 mm bore x 71.5 mm stroke 2492 cc displacement 8.5:1 compression Head DOHC 24 valve Shim-over-bucket valve actuation Turbos Parallel Twin Turbo (CT12A) Ceramic turbine wheel, floating bearing Front mount intercooler Tech TCCS ECU MAP speed density air metering Sequential 6 coil ignition Batch fire injection Side feed high impedance 370 cc injectors Electronic controlled hydraulic cooling fan powered by two-chamber water pump Visual Apperance Dark grey valve covers with "2500" and "TWIN TURBO" printed respectively on each Vented coilpack cover Throttle body will read "TRC" if equipped with traction control Short crank case ventilation tube, connecting from valve cover to "Y" inlet pipe 45 degree outlet pipe from turbos Known Issues Some ECUs will pop their compactor caps cause unpredictable running conditions Turbo bearings notoriously fail causing smoking Ceramic turbine blades chip if running over 16 psi for extended periods

Low oil pressure at startup IACV will sometimes lockup or freeze Generation 1.5 Exactly the same as Gen 1 but has long crank case ventilation tube, connecting from valve cover to front inlet pipe Generation 2 Block Same as Gen 1 Head Same as Gen 1 Turbos Same as Gen 1 but with improved bearings Side mount intercooler Tech Same as Gen 1 but; New ECU design with new plugs and a new harness Visual Apperance Same as Gen 1 but; Long crank case ventilation tube, connecting from valve cover to front inlet pipe 90 degree outlet pipe from turbos Known Issues Some turbos still suffer from bearing failure, but less frequent Ceramic turbine blades chip if running over 16 psi for extended periods IACV will sometimes lockup or freeze Other Changes New engine mount bracket design

Generation 3 Block Same as Gen 1 but; New water jacket design for cooler combustion temps 9:1 compression Head DOHC 24 valve VVT-i variable cam timing on the intake side Shim-over-bucket valve actuation with titanium coating Turbos Single turbo (CT15B) Ceramic turbine wheel, floating bearing Side mount intercooler Tech New ECU and harness, but ECU plugs remain the same as Gen 2 MAFS air metering with temperature sensor Wasted spark 3 coil ignition Sequential injection Top feed high impedance 370 cc injectors New water pump with thermal clutch fan (hydro fan discontinued) Visual Apperance Silver valve covers with "2500", "TURBO", and "VVTi" printed on center spark cover Throttle body will read "ECTS" if equipped with traction control Single turbo piping with a 30 degree outlet pipe Known Issues VVT-i solenoid will sometimes stick with bad oil (sludge) High boost might cause ceramic turbine blade to fail Other Changes New engine mount bracket design

Generation 4 Block Same as Gen 3 Head Same as Gen 3 Turbos Same as Gen 3 Tech Same as Gen 3 but; New ECU and harness, new ECU plugs ECU sits in engine bay ECTS-i electronic throttle system installed IACV removed Dual Electric fans (thermal clutch fan discontinued) Visual Apperance Throttle body will read "ECTS-i" with new servo controlled throttle gearing Known Issues ? Other Changes New engine mount bracket design
