Default Manual swap or 2jzge swap

Looking to get an SC300 but was wondering what would be less cost, manual conversion or a complete engine with manual transmission 2jzge, or are they the same in price, dont really want to go with a 2jzget since i already own a supra and really just want the sc as my daily, plus would rather put the money for that into my supra, been looking for prices online but haven't found a shop in my area.

Im confused. Why would you swap a GE into an SC300 if it already has one? Try to find a manual SC300, or jsut swap in a W58, shouldnt cost you more than $1K

Nah, I've seen W58's go for $300 around here. Just get the transmission and save yourself the trouble of swapping out the engine. That it unless of course you have a high mileage engine thats in rough shape..
