2JZ GTE 6-sp manual swapped into 1998-2000 SC300 with auto trans?
Hello!
I've been trying to find some some info on swapping a 2JZ GTE 6-sp getrag manual swapped into 1998-2000 SC300 with auto trans. Is this possible? Lots of headaches? It seems everyone has done it on a 92-97 SC300 with manual trans. Any info is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

It is possible.
1) The resistor mod does not need to be applied.
2) The 400s had the regulator moved to the gas tank and run a return-less system. If the 300s are like this as well then the gas tank will need to be swapped from an easier SC.
That is it.
My advice is if you have a 98-00 SC300 to get a 2JZ-GTE VVT-i with the 6 speed transmission. You will have a lot of spare parts like ignition coils, vvt-i actuator, tb motor, etc because of the stock VVT-i engine.
