Default 2jz swap

I have a 92 ls400 and i was wonder is it possible to swap in the 2jz which is the supra engine..im into circuit racing and very new to luxury car and figure the 2jz would give me alot of power and they are plenty of parts for it..are is it better just to fix up my old motor and supercharge it..ps my car got about 160000 milages so i think is about time i give a run for it money..thanks

Cool

Other than people wanting to be "different"
To each, his own.
Why one Earth would anyone want to swap a 2jz-gte when they start with a 1uz-fe which, for the same money & effort in modification. Is the better choice.
Eh, I tend to agree. You'd likely be much happier with a second car doing circuit racing.

I'll take a turbo over a supercharger, but there are some affordable M90 supercharger adapters coming out of australia if you check on lextreme.com.
