Engine swap for SC400. Suggestions?

[SCnewbie]

What engine should I swap? 2JZ-GTE? twin turbo 1UZ-FE? The reason being my stock V8 has a wopping 200k+ miles!

yet it's a 500,000-750,000 mile engine. lextreme.com
turbo the stock 1uz-fe

What's your goal and your budget. Putting twins on the 1UZ aint cheap!!!! Best bang for the buck is dropping in a 1JZ-GTE. 2JZ-GTE's are somewhat pricey from Japan and downright crazy for USDM. You can also pick up a USDM 2JZ-GE and just go NA-T.

Twins on the 1UZ is the most exotic route.

Oh, my stock 1UZ currently has 204,000 miles on her and she she still purrs like a kitten!

A turbo V8 sounds badass.

i knoe of a few turbo'd sc400, best bang for the buck would still prob be a 1jz swap..with a r154 5 speed..then single it...

hey i had my sc400 stolen and they wrecked it
ill sell u my motor for 500 has 150,000 and runs strong as ever!!!

that motor still has lots of life in it man. 200k is nothing.

upgrade your head gaskets to thicker ones. go single turbo on the 1uz install an SAFC or an emanage and your good to go.
