I've never seen a single instance of a 3RZ being swapped into a 3.0 truck. The 3.4 is such an easy swap into an already-V6-powered truck that it's not even funny. With a W58 bellhousing, the 3RZ will bolt up to a W56 tranny and then all you have to figure out is motor mounts.
Yeah if it came with a manual.
I haven't heard of anyone hooking up the automatic (whatever tranny that is ).
But I don't see the need for huge Horsepower numbers. Just like he says in that article, we make up for raw HP with gearing. I mean unless you are worried about pulling people out of some deep mudholes all the time there's really no need for anything more than 150 HP. If you think about it, a lower HP engine is going to last longer than some high strung, maxed out firebreather.
Plus after you go polished/ported head, aftermarket cams, O/S pistons, etc. it becomes a lot harder to come by parts. What might have taken a day to get in, could take weeks.
I personally can't wait till I get the money to do a 3RZ swap. I think it's going to be awesome. Throw on a easier flowing exaust, and a nice air filter and I'll be chugging along just fine .

That's right! That bus is owned by the Man!
I need to get my sharpie and start putting anarchy signs on my body now....!
the R150 only came with the 3.0, not with the 22R. the 22R only came with the G58 or W56. even then, bellhousing adapters are too much $$$.
i'll have to look again about the 2.7 swap, but everything i've read about it being "bolt-in" pertained to 4runners/trucks originally equipped with the 3.0, not the 4-cylinder.
I never said that the R150 came with the 22R. I said that MC makes a bellhousing to bolt the RZ to an R150 (or any short-shaft R series tranny for that matter), making the transmission aspect bolt-on.
And while on that note, there IS an R151 transmission behind turbo 22Rs, and that would work the same.

i was under the impression that since the O.P. was asking about N/A 22RE's, information about swaps into a different model (3.0/22RTE which came with R-series trans.) would be random irrelevant facts.
Okay over the weekend I figured out a way to finally gain about 20-30HP for free!!!!! I took the 4Runner rear top off!!! It was like a turbo button!! That and with a real good tailwind the cab acts like a parachute!!!
Seriously though, take any weight off that you can. It's night and day!
Well, i have a '94 toyota pickup.. i bought it completely stock, and now its looking at around 250 hp.. all that i can remember that i did to it was: Turbo kit,turbo camshaft, ARP head Studs, New Head Gasket, 8.5" plug wires, MSD 6AL ignition box, Crane LX 91 ignition coil, Mishimoto Intercooler, Turbosmart Veeport BOV, Greddy Turbo Timer, New Valve springs, Split Second Air/Fuel Timing Calibrator, MAF conversion, 42 lbs Injectors, and a new turbo back 2.5" exhaust. i know im forgetting something, but watever..
I decided that the interior also needed some love, to match the power, so i converted the inside to a 4-runner setup, then took out the seats, and put two Bride Zeta III seats with Sparco Competition series 4-Point Harnesses, New MOMO steering wheel, 3 gauge pillar with all autometer phantom gauges, and all the standard gauges that were already there got a white face put on them..
the 22RE motor definetely has potential, You just have to have the time and money to put into it.. i think it was definetely worth it. Its already taken down LS1 Corvettes, I was very Surprised..
"around" 250hp? how did you come up with that number? have you had it on a real dyno? from the looks of what you listed, you have a nearly stock 22RTE, which only had 145 HP, and had different shaped combustion chambers specifically for the turbo motor. most of the stuff listed will not get you any more HP. the head studs, BOV, timer, valve springs, head gasket, plug wires, "calibrator", MAF, coil, etc. will not get you "more" HP. the intercooler doesn't get you more either, but it allows you to run higher boost before detonation. same with the injectors. i could see where a claim could be made about the MSD getting more HP, but i think it's more the fact that it cures an old and weak existing system.
on my 2.8 liter inline 6 turbo motor (which came with 175HP stock), 225-250 is really pushing the limits of the stock ECU/EFI, and that's at 14-18psi. with your compression ratio and relatively minor mods, i doubt you're running that much boost, or at least haven't for very long.
[QUOTE=EviL inside;50971907the intercooler doesn't get you more either, but it allows you to run higher boost before detonation. [/QUOTE]
Actually, the intercooler would give you a denser air charge into the cylinders. Therefore, if you could supply enough additional fuel, could you not make more power at the same boost levels?
the pressure drop across an intercooler negates any gain JUST from a cooler charge. unless you raised the pressure at the turbo to counter, then again you are raising the boost, so no gain just from the intercooler alone.
My Cuzzin send me a video of a guy in japan that had a celica twin charged.
It was... well amazing when they ran it on a dyno they came up with 369.36 ( never forgot this number *wow*) horses and torque dont remember of the bat but it was well over 400 this was about 8 years ago.
The guy was running a 22rte with supercharger for the 22re on the thing
I he had it set for a drifting they also said he had alot of tunning left but he was thinking of getthing the horse up to like 450-500 he also was setting up a all trac celica all-trac for raley racing with a twin charged engine to
im gona look for the video guys it was in casset
wow im late to the party Lol

Yeah, back in the day a guy named Dana Westover had a turbo 22RE running consistant 12's in Vegas. I'm talking back in the early 90's. At the time it was the fastest toyota truck out there. Now he builds 7 second supras.
As far as I know my 93 block 22re powered carina is the fastest 22r powered car in the United states. Going as fast as 10.63@ 128mph. There are a few videos of it still floating around on youtube running 11.70's on low boost. Back then we didnt have cellphones with cameras on them lol Stock block stock rods stock crank shot peened and magnufluxed je pistons 8.5 to 1 compression running my version of a lc stage 5 head arp head studs..big lc stage 5 cam 304 stainless turbo manifold hks race gate t68 turbo sds engine management 1000cc injectors.. act 6 puck clutch and flywheel combo..bla bla bla.. just like anything it's not what you buy it's how you build it this car has been sitting for 8 years and I just pulled it out the other day because I'm thinking of swapping the motor out of it into my drift/street miata ..why not right.. anyway saw that some one asked how much power or how fast figured I'd share. Oh and about 480hp to the wheels on 20lbs of boost. Pump gas 91injectors and fuel system are good for 750 never dynoed it at 30psi
im curious and i cant really find anything about any fast 22re, besides the lc engineeering, any clue on who has the fastest 22re or what the max hp and torque number these engines can handle? idk if i want to build a strong 22re or do an engine swap, what u guys think about high hp 22res? any links u guys got would help. thanks, another thing is im concentrating about a NON turbo engine.
I built a 22re. Had 80over 14 to 1 forged pistons,h-beam lighted rods, light weight stroker crank, aluminum flywheel and all balanced. The head had stainless steel swirl 48mm intake and 44mm exhaust valves titanium retainer and dual springs. Of course port polished and shaved big time. 4 barrel offenhouser intake holly 650 double pump. Stainless header flow master exhaust. Underdrive pulleys. Ran sunoco 114 leaded race fuel. Not positive on hp. But could turn 9800rpm all day long in mud bogg and smoke my 38s on dry pavement easy
