Default Which is easier to swap (not engine related)

I'm in the market for an SC3. I want a black interiro and a manual.

Which is easier to swap, given the choice. Is it easier to swap a manual tranny and pedals/ecu, etc. Or is it easier to swap the interior colors...

you realize this completely contradicts your siggy

More go fast, less look fast.

BTW, the manual

I'd think it's easier to find a used 5 speed transmission than finding a full black interior. One CL member had to buy a whole parts car to get the black interior. I'm pretty sure you'll need the 5 speeds ecu too.

As far as the install, I bet the interior is easier like OLT said.

Doing a tranny swap would be harder BUT cheaper then a black interior swap . I bought a whole car to get the black interior... your chances of finding one for a decent price are slim to none!

You can find an NA supra tranny, and all the parts to do it on supraforums pretty cheap, you just have to watch out for them!

Did SupraForums move it's Classifieds section to some obscure back alley of their website, or did I just become really blind the last couple weeks.

I just can't seem to find it anymore.

You may have to login to a name to view it. Try that, or look right above all the regional forums.
