Default using is300 maf on SC300

i did a quick search but didnt come up with anything, but my friend said his is300 plug is the same as my ugly *** maf. i was just wondering if its possible to use a IS300 maf because it would look a hell of alot better on a turbo setup than this big hunk of metal that we call a maf

what year SC do you have? because it might be possible to upgrade from the metal MAF to the black circular one (im not sure of the years on both just that my 92 has a metal rectangular one and my 97 has a circular one) it might have better flow, ill look into it and the plugs later

You should be able to get one from a 97~ SC3? I know that my Soarer (VVTi 1JZ) has an AFM instead of MAP like the earlier 1JZ's so you could even possibly use the one off a VVTi 1JZGTE.
