Engine Swap?


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

My name is Rich, I am obviously new to this forum.... I do Not currently own/drive a lexus SC300/400 but am in the market. I have been looking at these cars for a few years now, and there is something about them that draws me to them, but i dont know what.

I had a few questions about swapping in a 1jz-gtte motor (which i believe is the soarer and 89-92 supra tt motor), Now i can find the motor(turbos +all the nessesities) and engine harness (uncut) pretty cheap, but then comes the tranny, i can find a 5 speed cheap...but my question, would a six speed from a MKIV supra (2jz-gtte) bolt on the same, and what mods would I have to do to make it fit (motor mounts, moddify the bell housing)? How much would it cost to have a Pro do the motorswap for me (rough guess)? Or should I just swap in a 2jz-gtte and raise hell with the local cops? :D

all help and support is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rich

thanks, I found a link to that swap guide (www.fly-hawaii.com/lexustt/) but it is $89 bucks!!! but if it really helps then I would do it... now i just need a SC3, 2JZ-GTE, a garage, more tools (the best kind of shopping in the world), a dyno... Now will it be good for drifting??? im sure it would be similar to an actual supra except heavier... if it cost $10-13k Im in!!!
