Default New Here...have some questions

Hi All,

New to the forums. I have a potential sc400 to buy and before doing so looking at the potential of this.

It is a V8, prefer a 2jz or 2jzgte in there doesn't matter between the two.

however how is this swap performed, any issues with:

Motor Mounts - anything to expect
Manual transmission conversion - difficult?
Wiring - I know this has to be re-wired.

Several SC4 owners have gone 5-speed, or swapped to a 2J, and a few of them have been documented, just gotta search.
