Default Any vids of Sc300 w/ GTE swap

Title explains it all! I am thinking about attempting this swap, and wanted to see some vids of racing, driving, or just showing off the car.

Also I had 2 more questions reguarding the swap:
1) Anyone know a reputable place to get a USDM supra engine w/ less then 50k miles and Good Getrag 6spd tranny?
2) Can you use a Supra's exhaust when the swap is done?

Thanks alot!

Here is a video of my car running the quarter. Sorry it's a minute or two into the video. My buddy is working on a dvd for our car group, and this was the teazer.
I'll have plenty more video's come next spring

Answers to your questions

1. much more difficult to find a complete US spec motor, just have to call junk yards, look online, and keep your eye on supraforums. Speaking from experience, it takes some luck. It won't take much to make a jspec motor, close to us specs, so you may be better off with that.

2. You can use the aftermarket downpipes offered for a supra, however catbacks will not be a direct bolt-on, if you search CL, I think someone modded a supra exhaust to fit.

Yeah, if you had something like a vpc to control the mas (or lack there of). Matter of fact, it would be the more appropriate decision. I myself am using a jspec ecu and jspec harness. Eventually i'd like to get myself a usdm harness and aem, but for now this will work.
