dibbleyuk Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 buying say this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Aristo-with-3-0-Twin-Turbo-Supra-Engine-2JZ-44k_W0QQitemZ110091409358QQihZ001QQcategoryZ18290QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Swaping the engines from an NA so basicly you end up with a TT supra and an NA Aristo and selling the Aristo on? Does everything straight swap. The Aristo is a far price if someone was willing to do the work themselfs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 If you do it yourself it could be worth it. Paying someone and then it would be cheaper just to buy a TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibbleyuk Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 the idea i had in my head by selling the Aristo back on you get some of your money back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 not likely to get enough money back to really make it worth your while imo. plus there's no way you'll know what state that engine is in (especially from an auctioneers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid Snake Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 the idea i had in my head by selling the Aristo back on you get some of your money back Not 100% sure but then it wouldn`t be an Aristo. Would it not then become a Lexus 300? Depending what someone wanted it for I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibbleyuk Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 You just tell the buyer its cheap because the twin turbo engine went and couldnt afford a replacement so got hold of a NA version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Not 100% sure but then it wouldn`t be an Aristo. Would it not then become a Lexus 300?It would be an Aristo TT with a non-standard engine, so it would be worth even less than a non-turbo Aristo, let alone a real GS300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
