Default horsepower worries

hello i have a 92 sc300(5spd) and i am interested in making some more power,i know about the f max turbo kit and all that good stuff, and i also know about the 2jzgte swap, and the ever so popular NOS.
but right now i am interested in (air flow, timing ,ignition, rear gearing, a tranny upgrade and loosing alot of weight) ,turbos arn't going anywhere,and i'm 50/50 on nos don't hate it don't love it.
so to anyone who can help with anything at all please let me know,oh i almost forgot, will the 6 spd tranny from the 2jzgte fit my sc300 without any problem's...


thanks

Searches help, true.

I will chime in here though. Your diff is a 4.08 gearing. You could go with a MKIV Non-turbo Auto LSD and go 4.27 and end up with more torque but a slower top speed. You will also gain traction from the LSD.

If you go MKIV Turbo Auto LSD(3.769) or MKIV Turbo Manual LSD (3.133) then you will end up with a higher top speed but less torque.

The MKIV Non-turbo LSD is very rare. There were two in the country and I grabbed one of them. They are also more expensive at around $800 and up used. Actually all the diffs are going up in price since the parts are getting rarer. Luckily I have five diffs

I know this is only about the rear end but keep searching. Also look at Suprastore.com for upgrades or even Supraforums if they ever come back.
