@OP. Very cool. Say hi to the folks at Team Orange. I got my Supra TT LSD differential from them. I'll be watching your progress.

Interesting swap. I guess you might want to venture into the Drag scene in the future?

His setup will be fun on the street not that I condone that but highway runs he will surprise a lot of cars.

From where I come from, his set up could be too much though . My country could be covered in an hour from end to end.

This is something i've been thinking about doing. Just worried about the engine harness working with the body. I'd be afraid of things not working after the swap like the top or other misc things. Hopefully you map out your progress for us to learn. As for engine choice i think it's a great one. A lot of potential. And there's something about the sound of a 2jz when the waste gates open up.

This sounds like a challenge to set a cross country record in an SC!

Just curious if everything else still works on the car. Like the top, speedometer, tach, etc. any check engine lights?

Very nice - congratulations. Now you can swap the diff too for the one from the Supra TT! I also want to know about how everything is working. You got the ECU with the engine I suppose. Did you change the wiring harness? Cant wait to see any dyno results.
