I originally bought an 92SC300 and a USDM 2JZ-GTE, V160, single turbo manifold, fuel system, etc. to do a swap in the SC300. I have since found and purchased a 2002 IS 300 SC Auto with the intent of doing the swap. My only issue now is that I'm torn between leaving it an auto any building/buying a A650E, or doing the full swap and going with the V160. Any input is appreciated...

 

if u got $$$$ to play with and or can do most of the labor yourself, then go for the 6 speed swap....u will need many custom parts (driveshaft, etc)

check and search on www.is300.net as its been discussed about what parts are needed

totally depends on what your power goals are and what you plan to do with the car...keep it streetable/daily driver, or weekend warrior and take it to the 1/4, its really hard to have the best of both worlds, trust me on that...

 

We've talked on AIM, and I appreciate the feedback. I've had the GTE motor, single manifold, V160, etc. for some time now. I recently picked up BOTH the manual brake pedal and clutch pedal assembly off of Ebay for $80, so it's definately going 6 speed now.
