Default GS300 vs. SC300

hey guys, i've had sc300's and was curious, do the SC300's and the GS300 use the same diff? same diff mounts and location?

would a SC300/supra diff bolt on to the 1st GEN GS300?

i'm almost pretty sure the driveshaft is a different length right between the two right??? the transmission would probably be the same?

only difference is the driveshaft? i guess tranny tunnel would be a bit different too. wondering if anyone has done a TH400 swap in the 1st gen GS?

engine bay clearance on the exhaust side seems to be a lot more restricted on the GS300 vs. the SC300.

curious if anyone has went NA-T with the GS300 and which manifold (exhaust) they used?

well if u have a mani. SC300 then yes rear is diffrent VS. the auto diff its higher gears which means more top end (lil bit tho)... but mounts and everything is the same and as far as driveshaft very diff in lengths..
