Question 2jzgte ENGINE SWAP

If i was wanting to do a 2jzgte twin turbo swap in to a 1998 - 2002 Lexus GS, does it matter if it was if it was a GS300 or GS400? Should i be going with the VVTI or not? Can you pls help me find out this information a.s.a.p?

Thanks Uber for answering my question. I'll check out the meet.

Damn. I was hoping to get a GS400 or 430 then later on do a VVTI Swap.

Not worth the chesse IMO. Just get GTE internals and boost. Too many things to move around and the wire harness is not fun. Anyway, why don't you just buy an aristo instead? Can't you buy one where you live twojzgte?
