Well sideshow thanks for the offer, i will get some quotes and maybe take you up on an offer like that.
I have heard a GS300 crossmember can be modified or fits possibly, and the GS300 sump may just work as well.
The wiring did concern me a bit but i have a full supra (ie not a cut out of a car engine and gearbox so that should help, well sort of a full supra, engine etc intact but i would guess just about every panel is stuffed)
I know there is a lot of work but i just wanted the engine done and gearbox, things like the big supra brakes or r34 brembo's i have etc and suspension i was all going to organise myself, i just thought somebody with a clue to do engine and box may have made life easier.
If it all gets to hard i am sure it would be easier to do a 3s-ge conversion as atleast the gearbox should be same, but not sure how strong they are.
The balance, front heavy thing is a worry as well, but i figure it shouldn't be toooo bad (hopefully), the is300 is nice enough to drive so the turbo shouldn't add too much weight. I can always move battery to boot as well.
I would have expected 3 weeks would be a decent time, say 120hrs x $60 = $7200, + parts and fabrication. I planning to strip the supra to start with for the parts required and even the IS if it helped them.
$10-12,000 i thought would be not too far from the mark, brakes/suspension, after market computer etc all extra of course but i would handle that myself anyway.
Any more thoughts ?
