IMO, keep the 1uz and do a manual conversion. That'd a be conversation piece for meets, rare, and extremely cool.

I've read that it can be done on the cheap or run you a few grand, all up to you though because its your car.

I would LOVE to do that, but I've researched it and I think its a little outta my league lol. I wouldnt know the first step to take in that direction. I'm still pretty much a noob when it comes to engine mods, so I was wanting to do a simple turbo in the sc300 when the time came. But as for starting something like that now, I'd need some expert help..
