This should be interesting, best of luck

^^^^sketchy^^^and sold it for such a low price.... idk about there but mk4 supras in the states are what about 15-30 dollars? for a tt 6 speed model anyway
The JDM MKIV market is a true indication of what the JZA80 chassis is actually worth. The USDM Supra market is simply overpriced because the Supra tax (USDM brakes/turbos play into it too!). Market demand has pushed it there and with so few remaining, I doubt it will change. However, 9k could definitely buy a decent JDM JZA80 chassis for what the OP has planned.

Actually, you should be able to use that A03B 3.26 torsen in your Sc300. It'll bolt right up. I have one in my sc300, that I thought was a 3.77torsen


my oldest friend is from Lima...

That supra is hideous! Can't blame you for doing what you're doing.
