add a turbo and metal HG then you will have a SICK car... 2JZ-GE + Turbo = owns almost anything...
its still not the same as the 2jz-gte stock, but its all in the mods baby.....

scepter, please explain yourself... the 2jzgte is the newer version, and swapping that engine in would be a better idea than a 1jz. the car comes stock with a 2jz-ge (nonturbo) you can add a turbo settup and be more powerful than a 1jz swap.

there is no JDM SC300...


the Soarer twin turbo has the 2.5 liter 1JZ-GTE, so it would technically be the SC250...

as for the 400, that does have a V8 in japan, so it's all good..

whats the price of a JDM 1jz swap? whats the price of a turbo kit for the 2jz NA... what aftermarket parts are available for the 1jz? and the 2jz? weight the options... it would probably be easier and better to swap in a 2jzgte
