Where at in Colorado are you? I'm planning on going NA-T or doing a 1JZ swap myself.

I live in Castle Rock and work at Kuni Lexus. I think instead of a kit that has a lot of junky parts, sourcing individual parts would have been better. 2JZGTE swap is not a bad idea after all the issues I have ran into.

Sweet dude maybe we can meet up some time to check out each other's rides and bull**** about our boost dreams. It's been a hard decision deciding NA-T or 1JZ for me. I'm going to compression test and possibly get a leakdown test done on my GE to see if it's healthy enough. Only 137k miles I think it'll be fine.

I'll be sure to PM you if I'm ever looking for parts. Have you had any luck finding any NA-T stuff locally? I sure haven't.

Some parts I have been using Siliconeintakes.com in Colo Springs. Where in Colo are you? Would you like to see my build, I am on my last stages but you can see what you will be getting into before you start. I am in Castle Rock.

SC 400 do not originally come with a manual transmission. It is only available on the SC 300!!!!!!! I have a 1995 SC 300 with a manual 5 speed tranny; original. Exterior color is teal mist metallic with interior spruce leather. The spruce leather is only available with that exterior color. Also, the teal mist only came out in 1995. How's that for rare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
