a 6spd out of a supra will cost a few thousand by itself.

look around for VVTi full swaps (engine, turbos, tranny, ECU, all wiring). They are not 2400 dollars as originally stated. Maybe you did find one, congratulations. But there are very few out there that cheap, and personally i'd assume there's something wrong with one that is that cheap.

I'm in florida buddy they have alotta people that sell motors and you would be surprised how much they get those motors for. When everybody was on a nissan craze and looking for sr20det motors, 2j aristo motors were sitting for months, now that you got everybody wanting one the rape artists tack on an extra 1-1.5k for a motor just because of hype.

Agreed I'm going to use Greddy E-manage for my turbo setup.
