I've been real curious about this swap and I have been searching but haven't found all the info i need, can you answer just a few ?'s for me:

1. is that from a soarer front clip or is that the american 1jz?
2. does the car throw any CEL codes
3. did you convert to a MT, if so what tranny did you use?
4. were you able to keep any parts form the sc400 engine setup (ac lines, power steering lines, coolant reservoir...etc.)

Any info would be more than appreciated!! and if someone could also guide me in the right direction on what to search for for the sc400 1jz swap. I've checked other forums as well but no one is really clear...

Great looking swap so far and thanks in advanced!

thanks for the compliments she was a flood baby so all the electrical had to be changed (thanks to gazi).still waiting on a a taillight from Shadow sc

.Cherplex i cant get enough of the 400 gear ratio on a six the only downside of the 400 rear end is going at 80mph at. 3800 rpms so she is not too highway friendly but on a 1/4 mile she boogies .i got the mines from a place called prolink japan .i got the motorset from him also .i used my intercooler from my last setup

Vegas sc300.The car needs a respray because of some minor scratches and a ding on the fender .i got this car especially for the color combination silver/black .and she only has 53000 miles on the clock .

21ce.do a search under my name and you will get info on this swap .like cherplex said the 1j never came to us soils

bigmalik .i jus cant stand looking outside my window looking at her like that .looking all sad and down .i bet you if i had it in a shop they would thake forever ant the bill would of been really wild .still lots of work to do ,cant wait for the weekend
