# Even a New Toyota 2JZ Short Block Is on Sale for Black Friday

*\<em\>Toyota, composite by the author\</em\>*

The Toyota [2JZ](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/toyota-aims-to-surpass-2jz-with-next-gen-high-performance-engine>) engine that powered the [MKIV Supra](<https://www.thedrive.com/article/15308/this-mkiv-toyota-supra-in-texas-has-a-turbo-hemi-v-8>) (and a quite few other vehicles) is one of the better-known engines of our time. Vaunted for reliability and a lot of headroom to make power with modifications, it's been a fan favorite for decades. Believe it or not, it's also still in Toyota's U.S. dealership parts catalogs—and you can score a little discount on one right now.

One of our site developers dropped [this link](<https://autoparts.toyotaofgladstone.com/products/product/block-assy-short-1140049088#popup-1>) into our chat last night as we were joking about Black Friday deals, and I got a kick out of it. The idea of impulse-buying a 2JZ [short block](<https://www.thedrive.com/cars-101/37487/short-block-vs-long-block>) on a holiday deal just feels hilarious. Now you can send this to your own car-friend chat, or significant other if they need gifting ideas for you.

Toyota catalogs its short block assembly as [part number 11400-49088](<https://autoparts.toyota.com/products/product/block-assy-short-1140049088>) and lists it for $3,726.89. Toyota of Gladstone out in Oregon is [doing 15% off on 'em right now](<https://autoparts.toyotaofgladstone.com/products/product/block-assy-short-1140049088#popup-1?driveline=2WD%203.0L%206-Cyl%206MT&grade=Turbo%20COUPE%20LIFTBACK&series_name=SUPRA&model_year=1997&model_year_code=1997:2383>) so if you order from there, the price is $3,167.86 at the moment. Looks like there's a promo going on at the dealer until the beginning of next month, too.

That's less money than I would have thought a 2JZ block would cost, but a little cursory research indicates it's not really a screaming deal—Googling "2JZ for sale" turned [another $3,200 option](<https://www.mvpmotorsports.com/engine/engine-blocks/toyota-oem-2jz-gte-short-block-engine/11400-49088/>) up as one of the first results. But hey, pretty cool that you can even still get these straight from Toyota. And, again, I just love the idea of rocking up to a Toyota parts desk to grab some accessories and thinking "hey $600 off 2JZ short blocks? Can you throw one of those in my cart too?"

The monolithic Japanese automaker might be [struggling to assemble engines properly](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/explaining-the-toyota-reliability-crisis>) nowadays, but the hardware it was building in the '90s was the stuff of legend. Hell, if I had a Tundra sitting in a service bay right now for [an engine recall](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/dealers-are-refusing-toyota-tundra-trade-ins-over-twin-turbo-v6-recall>) I'd have half a mind to get on the horn with my service advisor and ask if they could slap in one of these 2Js instead (they won't).
