kl will got on it shortly.

 

how much (round figures) for a auto to manual change on a turbo?

 

If your going to buy auto then later changed to a manual, it depends if you are going to be 5speed or 6speed. The 5speed gearbox will be cheaper and the 6speed box will probably be around £2,000.00+ and once thats over you will have to decide if your going to use a 2JZ GT engine or buy a 2JZ GTE engine for a turbo conversion.

 

If your going to buy yourself a 2JZ GTE engine plus stock turbos that would probably be around £2,500.00??

 

Maybe bigger brakes??

 

So just for the conversion your probably need £5,000.00 or more

 

or you could just buy a supra TT so save yourself the agro and time unless you want to create a project car.

FFS..!!

 

Buy a turbo manual, or an auto if you that way inclined. Modding is always more expensive than buying the original spec outright.

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned before. It's enlightening. If only there was a way to view posts that had previously been made.

Ask mawby for a search button for Christmas. IMO all forums should come supplied with one.

 

hello. is it better to buy a turbo supra or to save money buy a non turbo manual and put a turbo on it?

Not sure how mechanically-minded you are, but don't be under the impression that the non-turbo car is the same as the twin turbo but with 2 blanking plates where the turbos would usually go. There's an awful lot more to it than that. :)
