kasier why do you use a supra throttle cable, did your front clip not come with an aristo throttle cable? also what year supra waterpump should you get? also the harness extension you speak of what vendor should i source that from?

No it did not come with a cable. Not sure why. The waterpump was from a 95. If you were able to find an extension harness it would be from a company called Fields. They were discontinued a while ago but I saw 2 for sale on the SupraForums classifieds within the last 3 months or so.

what about the diff? I am doing the swap on a 94 gs300. I was wodering if a supra's would fit if you changed the three pronged peice from the gs. I found a torsen lsd with a 3.8 final from an aristo, but would have to order from japan. I dont like the open diff that it comes with, and dont trust it with the added power.

aristo front clip
Hey guys, I'm new here. I have an 89 supra that I'm doing a 1jz on. I'm getting in need of a new daily driver though and was thinking about getting an obd1 gs300, which in a year or so I could do an aristo motor swap in. One question that i have so far is. If I were to buy an aristo front clip, would I have everything needed for the swap expect fluids. Just wondering if there are any differences in the change over from rhd to lhd that might make some parts not interchange.

My new car
hey guys.. i just bought me first GS300 i have loved these for the longest time.. and i finally got one.. i just want to know if some one can tell me what kind of suspension..motor would go good in this car???
engine
Well before everyon flames you and says search, you should search. But
a quick answer:
stock motor, turbo'd = 350rwhp
2jz-gte = 400-500rwhp easily
suspension, go with eibach/kyb-gr2 or a coilover setup from tein.
I can do the engine swap if you're interested. (but it's not cheap)
