Hi

New to this forum
But not new to new to LC80 and offroading
I own 1995 FZJ80 with the original engine and have driven it for a few years, it has 306k miles, now the engine is weak and will need to be rebuilt or to be replaced very soon.

I got 1fz engine from 2005 LC105 with the transmission no ECU or wires

Has anybody done this engine swap and can shed some light on this?

thanks

Hey Desert Dino,

I have a friend that looked at doing this and he had issues. From what I recall, whilst they are the same engine, the electronics is quite different (pretty sure they have a coil on plug setup) and there may be some different pickups and Input sensors (possibly the crank and cam) that were different.

Sorry that all a bit vague but not a straight swap.
