I have a question, I have heard of people that will do the 2JZGTE swap for the Lexus with the transmission for 2000 if the parts are given to them ? I would REALLY appreciate it if someone could give me a number or site to someone who did, thank you.

You are talking about $2000 on labor to change the engine and the transmission...You provide the new engine and transmission...
Anyone can do it just ask you local garage. Its just a matter of taking off parts, engine mounts, disconnect the drive shaft from the transmission and get a cherry picker (engine lift)...and you're home free

since we're on the subject, how does everyone deal with emmisions etc?

The 2JZGTE is emissions compliant in the USA if that what you mean, a 50 dollar tip to your local garage that tests emissions does it too

Oh where can I get the engine mounts that are needed ? I know that their is some people that will lengthen the drive shaft.Ok this is my list of what I need.

1. Engine
2. Trans
3. Harness
4. LSD( I will be using the TRD LSD made for the supra)
5. Lengthened drive shaft
6. Custom exhaust of some sort
7. FMIC, but can't I just use the stock SMIC ?

Thanks for the help

i understand the 2jzgte is emmisions compliant, pehaps i phrased my question wrong. anyway, what i meant was that will there be any extra paper work or anything since the motor didnt originally come from that car? or can they even understand that its a supra motor?

Yes you can. We actually have the opening for this. If you remove the air box you will see the opening. I have one for sale as well if you want one.

you shouldn't need anything in the way of engine mounts. the -GTE will slide right into the existing lexus mounts with no mods.

I bought a standard MK IV downpipe (Rod Millen, or others), with no cat (strictly for off-road, of course!), and it mated perfectly with the Greddy dual exhaust made specifically for the Lexus.

If you use the Supra cat(s), you may find the fit a bit tight in the trans tunnel area, but a few whacks with a big hammer can solve that problem!

for the Getrag conversion, there's a good detail description on the suprastore.com site (I can't recommend them as a source to deal with, however)
