sc300 question

[LS2_KID]

i found a sc300 with a blown motor and auto tranny for 3k, body is in good condition blah blah blah but if i wanted to drop a 2jz and 6spd in it would i need to get a custom driveshaft and supporting parts, thanks

I believe wiring is a bitch, I thought it would just be a drop in since the SC supported a JZ also... I dont know.. Ill just leave this to the experts.

[GGP2JZ]

yes

[LS2_KID]

yes

yes i need a custom driveshaft and/or wiring is a bitch?

what kind of power do you want to make? you would have to swap over the entire rear end from a supra too, but its all bolt on if you take it off a supra except a custom driveshaft would be needed. you would probably need some wiring done as well.. i dont see why you couldn't run the stock harness with a standalone... but then again i haven't done the swap. for more concrete info, search on clublexus.com, supraforums.com and na-t.com

Standalone, custom driveshaft...call it a day.

well after i did the swap it would stay stock for awhile cause im figuring 3k for the car, 4k for motor (hopfully thats with tranny) and do all of the work myself then whatever for the shaft.. oh and i just remembered motor mounts, they would be the same correct?

[GGP2JZ]

Motor mounts should be the same,

[SMURFM]

I highly doubt you will find a GTE motor, with the 6-speed tranny, rear end, and all for 4k...you might...but I doubt it.

back 6 months ago i believe i found a motor and tranny for 4k not the rear end, i see no need to swap the rear end cause the motor would be stock for awhile, ya know? but it would also be smart to get everything done at once, but here is another thing i probably won't even get a supra rear end, my of my old man's best friends is dan elliott, the brother and rear end/tranny builder for bill elliott, nascar driver so i might get one of those. just going to have to see how this all plays out

its the TT motor and a 5 spd tranny which could do for now i guess, but has anybody bought from there or heard of anything from this company?

[SMURFM]

dont do the 5-speed..do it right the first go :)

[LS2_KID]

:icon_cry: hah i know but still that 6spd is gonna kill me

It will be it will be well worth it in the end.

[JackBurton]

IMO... 3K IS TOO MUCH... for what you are getting... shop around for a better one...

[AnclyT]

true, if you look hard enough

you might be able to find one running in good condition for 3-4k

[CarbonGS]

you can easily find one with basic turbo set up in running condition for 6k
