Mon, 27 October 2003 01:27 They seem a little enthusiastic with the pricing there... -Fitting the engine and box is the easy bit providing you have mounts etc. -It shouldn't cost that much for a Supra box, as you already have an RA65 I'd be inclined to use that (its probably a W55 or W58). The manual conversion parts wouldn't cost as much as they say, the parts themselves are ~$850 plus shipping from CRS and you'd have to factor in about $450-500 for the clutch. -As you've retained your original box (or even if you must get a W58 or the like) your original tailshaft will fit fine. -I don't know exactly what they mean by rad and accessories, but I'm getting my original radiator triple-cored for about $350, I don't forsee any problems happening with it. -The wiring and tuning sounds about spot on. -What diff conversion are you planning!? Admittedly you're likely to need an LSD (which from a MA61 Supra would bolt straight in) but as long as you aren't someone who is going to try to break their diff, the F-series will be fine. -What are they planning for the fuel system? I could understand a helper pump if you're having troubles, but the fuel system in the RA65 is essentially the same as a MA61 Supra and their pumps would be more than capable of a stock 1UZFE. Even an aftermarket replacement pump wouldn't be that much. The other things you have to price up are all the engineering and registration fees. What I'm trying to say is that no, engine conversions are never cheap, but if you shop around and do your research, you can save your money and not buy things you really don't need.
