Going 2JZ-GTE will make the swap legal. It's the smog test part that might screw things up. (I think you mentioned that in the later post)
But hey most Supras with BPUs are not street legal anyways. Just know a few people in the smog business and your smogtest is taken care of. My main concern is getting the actual swap to be legal, which can be done with a 2JZ-GTE.
Swap wise, if the engine is newer than your car then it's legal (should be. I remember the law only requires a newer engine from the same manufacturer.) Smog wise, the newer JDM engines might not pass US smog tests, especially in CA. But like I said that's no biggie.
