Seems to be alot more work than swapping into an SC. Attempt at your own risk kinda thing...

Do a 1.5jz swap, send GS and 1jz harness to Dr. Tweak and go from there. Once the wiring is done everything else should be ok. Does the GS have a VVTI motor 2jz now?

Sound's liek it'd be a hassle when you can get a full Aristo engine set from Jhot for a few hundred more than the 1jz.

I'm guessing it'd be best to find an Aristo swap that's the same year as your gs300.
