why the hell would u want a GE swap???? i mean, its got LESS power and you have to do a ton of $$$ into the swap. now a GTE swap is a whole 'nother story but u still have to look at the dollar to HP ratio. you could s/c a 1uz (stock internals) for the same price as a GTE swap...

wow ....you gonna street race a LS400!! well.....im not sure if anyone makes a supercharger for the 95LS but there are other products like headers, intake( custom) mods you can do to wake up the motor a little bit!! take the cats out.....2.5 inch exhaust with a x-pipe.

first of all the LS4 is NOT a sports car so if u want it to act like one ur gunna need a lotta time and a lotta $$$

now, if u wanna seriously get into some power u have some options, all of which are pretty $$$ filled.
1-build motor and run NA
2-build motor and run Turbo (custom 100%)
3-sotck motor and run S/C at low boost

etc...

nobody really makes "kits" for our cars except a couple companies in australia who do ~3500-5000 s/c kits.

First, learn how to write and spell in english. Then, learn that this isnt a 'race car'. its a cruiser. you want more info on a 2jzgte swap into an LS400, look at www.retrodrive.net. He's in here, he has a ucf10/11 with a 2jzgte in it. pretty friggin awesome. and as far as i have gotten, you need the whole motor, ecu, wiring harness, custom driveshaft, custom intercooler piping, tranny cooler would be good, and i believe an apex'i rev/speed meter, or hks camp system. you'll need to have someone custom wire the car to get it running, and then you need to work out any bugs you have. have fun with it.

I agree, save your money and invest in a good education. If not for yourself, then for the sake of your kids.

You will need more then the above parts.... Lots of diagram reading and someone really know both systems VERY WELL. There are lots of little things that are not mentions. Such as AC control, instructment reading and other sensors and indicators. Prepare long down time and lots of hidden expenses and most important of all.... headaches....

if u want some sik speed, lol, put a 6' double decker wing and 50 type r stickers, cuz that will add 100 horse power wit d stckers alone. then if u still want more you can add 200 shot of naws. Add under body neon lights for added 10hp. And dont forget to change your hedlight fluid, cuz wit a high performance hedlight fluid, it will add another 15hp. but forget the ls4 it s a slow ****. go buy a civic cuz we live in a civic nation, lol, so after ur don wit d mods i gurantee u'lll break 9's in d quarter mile.

Are all people from your area suffering from IQ's less than 70?

First off -- Speak enlgish. If you can't structure a sentence, how are you going to build a motor?

Second -- You do realize you keep asking about dropping in a NA 2JZ motor right? For someone who has owned a supra, this should be pretty apparent...


Third -- Try reading before you open your mouth (see First) and making a complete *** of yourself.
