Thats funny because I sold my Z32TT in September so I could get an SC. I love the Z32 power but man was it a pain in the butt to work on......

Good luck on the sale and I highly recomend the SC. If you get an SC300 you can just get a turbo kit and make some great power or you can do the swap and still have great potential. Either way it will be a fun project for you.

Yeah, I made 334 RWHP and 394 RWTQ and that felt fun as hell. All I can say is tractions isn't even part of the Z32's vocabulary. The mods cost an arm and a leg too. It was a sweet car but man was it expensive.

SC modding can get expensive too especially if you do the Supra TT swap.

you can probably build a nice single 1jz setup for that price. 2jzgte I'm not sure that might just be engine tranny and ecu alone.
