That engine swap and tuning is going to cost you more than the 7K...Go with what your comfortable doing and what you consider valuable or better yet a must have for you...

^$7k should be enough to get the OEM TT setup up and running with the OEM ECU, turbos wiring harness, injectors etc.. And, its good to have a baseline

For me it'd be definitely a set of coilovers, bigger wheels, TTE lip and 3UZ conversion (I so wish we got the 430 here
)

If a GS300: turbo!!! And less expensive used wheels & lowering springs if possible.
If a GS400: wheels (~1500 used), coilover suspension (~1000 used), body kit (~2000 installed), exhaust (~800), tails (~300)

Yeah you can make a quick turn of the head and blow this amount and still not be half way done with what you want
