i'd also be happy with a 2jzgte swapped SC like the red one you just finished too hahah
those cars can be bought for under $25k. i could get one from car max, and buy their warranty so they can fix anything that breaks. lol

Sorry to butt in, but Yeesh German cars, yeah......Just seems like a step backwards from reliability, just my personal experience. They look fantastic have great performance, just too many Tupperware engine parts for me and just like a hot woman, even though she looks great for her age usually that means she's been worn fairly hard for those years before you met her.

you can have a good 2JZGE NA-T daily driver if you don't want to spend more. If funds is a concern on a swap, there is no point of going 2JZGTE if you are really not aiming for a lot of power.

I like your hot woman that is worn out analogy though

Junan - there is your chance for a proven cheap NA-T. I forgot all about it. That setup made 600rwhp I believe. It used to be on my black 1997 5 speed when it was owned by a guy in Ohio.
I am towing Rey's white hardtop SC to my place. I don't know yet what to do with it to be honest since as you locals know I already have 5 SCs in my place in Duluth. At the same time, I didn't want Rey to part it out and get almost nothing so I told him I will take it and bring it to my place. It's a hard top 5speed shell. The hardtop SCs are quite rare too .

You have been really nice for letting me keep that 5speed white SC, thanks. Thinking of keeping that since it is already white and just let go of the beige . That saves me a paint job. Damn I already upgraded all rotors / calipers on the beige. It even has the drag tires package now thinking it will be my Blue or White SC. I guess not. Need to get the red SC in the back yard out so I can tow your car to my place. I hate to make my place look like an SC junkyard having 6 of them in one place.Jared of Speed for Sale paid me a visit the other day and we talked hours and hours about cars.We had fun sorting on the parts I had around and gave me a lot of cool tips. If it was not too late being past 10pm , we would have gone.. on and on talking about cars. Really nice fellow.

I always thought 20s on an SC looks retarded if you don't have a body kit. For a change decided to try the 20s on my daily driver...This car will look even better with the side skirts though but the shine AC kit with these 20s will look the best in my opinion
