Did you end up picking up the car? wat did you think?
If i was you id leave the stock interior that would be a nice showpiece.. 1976 red vinyl throughout mmmm.. i so wanted those seats ..
If you want to be able to do a legal conversion a 12A turbo would be the smallest and easiest in my opinion for performance and if your dad has the experience, then even more help with problems and rebuilds. Also more likely to get legal with lower capacity,

BUT: if you had the money to do a 1JZ job anyhow on a dead stock ra23, why not go 1Ggte single turbo, stick with toyota motors cos they rule, and get it engineered with all the mods you plan on doing. My mate got his 13bt s2 rx7 engineered finally for about $1400 all up i think, and we never thought that thing would be legal.. ever. money can do anything if you have enough of the shit.. Sad

OR better still, go for the 3Sgte four banger, not many do this swap and its still 2 litre four cyl = probably easier to engineer than a 1G and would handle better, and still - pardon my french - would go like the f*cken clackers, with lots of future potential and hitech gizmos for you to setup like the 1j.

i think first tho, that car needs a full body restoration and respray, while its in such stock layout.

my uneducated 2 cents worth.
