ive not done it myself so im not sure. i dont own a supra yet, but im looking into options of engines & gearboxes etc frist. ive done a few Auto-manual conversions & NA to TT swaps, 200sx & 300zx tho. i know the 1JZ will fit in the supra engine mounts, there probably is a way where you combine the 2 looms together, rarther than put the whole EFI loom, connected to the ECU, then running a 12+ supply to it, and connect to the dash. im up for a bit of a project too, thinking automatic TT Supra, then doing W58. or you think it cheaper to get manual NA supra, and swap engine?

Auto ECU with Manual gearbox = OK Manual ECU in a Auto converted to manual = OK Manual ECU with Auto gearbox= Not OK the 1JZ will go straight onto the 5speed NA Supra box (W58) what box is currently on the 1JZ? they rarely came manual, but if it is manual (R154 box) use that! the R154 box is better than the W58, but they both work 1JZ vs 2JZ - price! you can get 1JZ everywhere, there are loads & loads of soarers, there are hardly any 2JZ engines alone about, and if there are think their about 3k? (not sure as im yet to come across 1) you can buy a TT soarer for a grand (their more or less all autos, and manuals are gonna be 4kish) i was thinking of just getting a shell, and doing something similar, but think its rare jsut to find a rolling shell? but you can get a nice kitted NA for about 3grand, then you could just do 1JZ and be sorted. thats the tight arses way tho but you still have a TT Supra! and the 1JZ is a very good engine.

been searching the gearboxes for a couple of days, the price of a 6spd TT is a lot higher than than the Auto TT. are there many complaints or many people happy with the R154 or W58 box? i know the R154 is better than the W58, on a basic stage 1/BPU supra

battery is a battery, jsut swap the terminals over? ive got the battery from a ford escort on my Fairlady Z.

yea i think it was white, and blue superman logo. it wasnt that yellow one pictured.

cant remember what the car was like, but remember thinking it was a cool idea at the time

does anyone have a pic of a car, i remember seing it years ago, may have been in max power? was a supra with this on the front

ive always fancied a supra or a GTR. ive had 3 S13 200's, and 2 Fairlady Z's (twin turbos) ive recently come into bit of money (10 grand) and got a lot of options car wise. thinking of a manual TT Supra, anyone got any advice etc for me on models? toying with the idea of getting a NA auto or just a shell, and building it all up, may be cheaper doing that way?
