What he said. This has been covered a bunch on here. The 300 or the 400 can be done. Easier is the 300. Especially finding a manual one already.

SC300 are lighter then the SC400's bonus, mostly drive train weight. however the stock 2jz is not a v6 it's an inline 6. has only 2 manifolds on the car intake, and exhaust. also easier to do the 1jz swap, manual swap in the SC300. if you want a manual that needs 2 new axels lmk i got one local that the guy would love to sell.
