na supra will have a different gearbox/diff and may not be able to handle the power of a 1J or 2J.
Better off getting a JZA70 which has a 1J in it already. I've seen one in the tradingpost lately.
Performance times of a JZA70 with the usual mods should be maybe late 13s. Not totally sure. 2J should be less.

Usually about 2-3 grand dearer than a MA70 Turbo.
Go to the tradingpost online and have a look for supra, then go through and see which has the 2.5L twin turbo

It's not often you see a jza-70 in the SA trading post (but I haven't looked for a while)
Because I did the manual n/a MA-70 to 1jz powered MA-70 conversion
You'd need a manual front cut, and there is a bit of work involved so you'll have to weigh up if you want to do all of that. There are a lot more parts/mods available in SA for the Silvia than for toyotas, but if you want something a bit rarer, probably faster, and more comfortable go the Supra.
The n/a manual has a LSD G285 diff (from memory) which has a 4.3:1 ratio. Mine has been going for a year with the 1jz (and R154 gearbox) without a hassle although I don't thrash it that often. I suspect it sometimes slips more than it limits too (and one black line is a bit darker than the other)
I haven't had it at the drags yet, and it runs virtually stock boost and airfilter, so I can't comment on the times you'd expect. It goes pretty damn hard though and will step sideways/lose traction when you hit second in a drag. Losing traction can be a bit of a problem overall!

But if you want 2jz...I've heard there is a 2jz six speed front cut at jap-parts (www.jap-parts.com.au) on South Road. Whether it'll fit in the transmission tunnel is another story..

The 6sp will fit into the A70 tunnel with no major problems, slight mallet work and you'll be fine. A friend has one in his Supra. Goes well with the 2J.
There's nothing really wrong with a 7MGTE Supra as long as you get a good one. Not to mention them being a LOT cheaper.
