Thumbs up The Swap Has Begun( is almost done now)

i am a newbie and i have had my sc400 for about 2 months.i bought it used with 69000 miles on it but it needs paint. i am doing the 2jz-gte swap with a single turbo. those of you who check the gs first gen will know my buisness partner Nazar. we are building a custom aristo for him. i will keep you guys posted on the swap and info. i am doing some things that most people dont do. i am using a supra tranny in this car with the supra auto shifter. next week we start working on paint. feel free to let me know what you think

what size is that turbo? 67? It looks like more than enough to get your car flying down the road once you are wired up and tuned up.

good luck man.

looking good ,thats gonna be 1 fast sc Goodluck on the supra tranny swap I know they can take more power than the 1j but i can't tell you about the wiring .I think the 2j supra tranny use a solenoid instrad of a kickdown cable. The tranny is shorter so you might need a auto supra front half for the driveshaft .It has been done before on here if you do a seaech you might find something.

i spoke to Josh at phoenixtuning today and my harness is done. so you know the ins and outs of this whole deal i will give you prices and all. i payed 400 plus shipping and sent him my sc400 harness and my jdm supra harness that was already extended. i recieved a call from him to let me know that if i wanted my tach and spedo to work right i would need to puchase a dakota digital interface for 120$. that seemed fair. i also needed a alternator plug and i was missing a plug for the a/c. that totaled 30 dollars. he also removed the abs plugs and trac control plugs seeing that i didnt have either anymore.
i would recomend this guy to anyone so far due to his customer service and no pressure attitude.


as for my tranny......the supra one is in and seems that it will work well. it does not have a kick down cable like the sc. i will soon be getting a spare tranny to do a higher stall converter. i will keep everyone posted. it may be a little while because i am currently painting the car and putting a new kit on it. next will be getting it running then the full custom interior.

if you want to see it try to keep track of it at www.wickedcas.com we will be posting there more often
