Default GS300 to GS400 swap

Is this possible for me to swap out my V6 with the engine from the GS400? How hard would it be? Any major changes needed? Help because I am seriously thinking about doing this mod. (Have a great deal on a GS400 engine from friend!!!)

Im sure its pretty hard considering you will also need the GS400 tranny, and GS400 steering wheel. Yuor better off buying a 2jzgte or doing a turbo upgrade

I think it'd be cheaper just to sell your GS3, and to buy a GS4.

Sell the GS3 and buy a GS4. Cheaper and no legal hassles. Oh, you don't have a V6. You have a I-6.
