My Aristo, your Reppin' NELOC to the fullest.....Keep up the nice work. I didn't get a chance to feel the power of that beast. But at the next meet, I would love to go for a ride. The work looks better in person. The car looks as though it came that way stock.

and if you dont mind my asking (i want to be doing this within a year or so) how much did the swap run you? I'd be looking into a USDM swap motor i think primarily but if i couldn't find one i'd go JDM like yours.

this may be a stupid question but i'm going to ask it anyways. Is the JDM 2jz-gte legal here in the states, especially in Ca.? I know it's a JDM motor, but unlike other JDM motors like the sr20, rb-series, or B-series, this motor actually came to the states in the Supra, but not the GS. Would a swap between a USDM 2jz from a Supra to a GS be possible and legal?

I don't want to get into specifics but i can say the clip can range from 2k to 7k depending on mileage,etc....

Cost of Labor: can range from 1200 to 5k...It really depends on what you want and the parts you decide to go with...

You can get a quote from Farley I am sure...The job was extremely clean..
The engine bay looks like the way it would from a Aristo IMO...

I can take detail pics if needed.

fwiw, the 98+Aristo stock twins are steel not ceramic. Good looking car/swap, VERY clean.

This is an older thread, however there is some good stuff here. If you go back and read the 1st post, it will give you the name of the shop, location, phone number, and name of an individual to talk to. IIRC the speedo reads off of wheel speed sensors. I would see if you have any stored codes for the VSC.
