Default sc300-gs300 differences

what do the sc300s and gs300s (93-97) have in common, aside from the motors? what do they share in the suspension department? do the turbo kits fit the same on both cars? can you do the same things to the gs as you can do to the sc?
how much of a Supras aftermarket(suspension) can be used on the cars, if any?

You might want to ask this in the GS forum also...

I do know that to swap a 2JZ-GTE into the GS...things are different. There are some differences in the shape/size of the engine bay that caused issues. I'm guessing that the turbo kit would work, with maybe some minor changes for intercooler piping/mounting. Call Toyomoto (305-599-3050) and see what they say about it...I bet he's turbo'd one before.

As for the rest....I just don't know.

No longer a 13b fan...heh...have you seen the cover of "Turbo" magazine this month? There's a RX7 with a 2JZ motor in it. Best of both worlds? It's SP's project car...pretty durn nice!

yeah i saw it, it is a near perfect car.
i had an 89 turbo that was, well, a bit modified.
I was running a Haltech E6K, T66, etc. (click on sig)it was about as unreliable as they come. But it was kinda fast.
