1pz Swap with 1hz engine

Hi. I would like to know if is it possible to Swap 1pz engine(4speed gearbox) with 1hz engine(5speed gearbox).

Assuming you have bell housing you should have no issues apart from prop shafts will be different lengths due to the 5 speed gear box been longer than 4 speed.

I have never seen a PZ with a 4 speed box, where is it from and what year?

My pz was made in japan. But i use it in mozambique(africa) is from 1990. And i have prop shafts of 1hz, if necessary im going to change my 1pz prop shaft with 1hz prop shaft. Is it possible to cut a prop shaft and weld?

Yes you can shorten a shaft but it must be cut at the either end and re balanced afterwards. If you have 1HZ shafts they should fit no problem. Any mods to a shaft should be carried out by an engineering shop which can balance them properly because any in balance will make it feel like a washing machine and will cause damage to transfer box and diffs.

Is the 4sp a R141?
It is on a plate on the firewall.
