Default toyomoto ?

what do you guys know about toyomoto? what kind of reputation do they have? and do they sell 2jzgte's for a complete swap ecu and tranny and all ive been having some problems with the company my shop ordered my engine from (they sent the wrong year engine with no tranny) and im about fed up with them and the shop im going through, they dont seem to be trying to much to get things done for me. but ive noticed some ppl saying good things about toyomoto in miami florida which isnt too far away from me so i might considering taking a trip down there for my swap. also any one have an idea about their prices
ive been trying to call them for the past 2 days one of them i was too late and they had closed another i just didnt get an answer

prices are up there, one of the few trusted shops. of course you will hear the bad and good. i would do a search on is300.net, supraforums.com, and on here about them.

Toyomoto is good stuff. Pricey. If you can get a hold of them do it. Your local so it shouldn't be a problem.

my friend had an auto trans built there for his turbo IS300. from what i felt when i drove it, it was pretty good. the shifts were hard, kicked you back in the seat. i don't remember him having any problems with the trans either.

so far ive heard nothing but good about them

so do u guys think im gunna spend over 10k on one of their engine swaps with conversion to 6speed? i guess i would expect to spend a little over that any ideas?

im starting to get frustrated about getting my d@mn swap done

by now had things worked with the shop i was previously going through i should have had my engine half way in by now

i think im gettin ready to say screw saving money and just opening up the bank account

10K wont get you anywhere, unless you do it yourself!
