i am getting my 1jz corona finished. Price depends on how far the car is. eg. my car didn't have the normal bits like tailshafts, exhaust etc. so i will have to pay extra for that stuff. For your conversion ideas: do they require cutting firewall or moving radiator? if not, then i guess it would just be getting engine mounts, cutting tailshaft to fit, most likely need a brake upgrade for engineering, and getting the wiring done.

Try Robin Berado at Perfourmance Motorsports over at Slacks Creek ... he's a great guy and does quality conversions.
www.pms.net.au
You may pay a bit but you do get your money's worth. If you're on a budget, you can try Anthony Kellam based in Capalaba ... haven't met him b4 but he's the other person recommended for conversions.
Don't have his details but you can get them from the twincam16 forums.
