Yes, it can be done you will need custom Motor mounts (eBay might have a set).wiring harness out of a Lexus GS 300 or buy one pre made by dr tweet. The best ECU to use would be a aristo 2jzgte or go standalone AEM. Your transmission will work but you will need a 1jz r154 bellhousing and flywheel r154 clutch will work. That all I can think of at the moment. I did this swap 2 years ago.
