They all do. If you refer to the Drive-by-Wire Options section I wrote, you will see even the DBW throttle body uses a mechanical cable to actuate the throttle...except it just changes a potentiometer instead of the actual throttle plate. Watch the video in that section if you're unclear

Basically steer away from 1JZ VVTI's with the ETCS-I stamped on the throttle body. It can work just fine but I would prefer the mechanical one. Good luck!

As for the front & rear main seals it's the 'NATIONAL' part numbers right? These should fit a 1jz non-vvti correct?
Thanks! Yep I actually used 2JZ front and rear main seal numbers from RockAuto and they fit correctly.
