I been looking around for a GTE motor and saw this in the classifieds:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc4...mines-ecu.html
Im looking at this engin and wanted to know if it will drop right in my 93 SC300. I know that there are front sumps and rear sump engines, ours needing a rear sump. By looking at the pics, is this the rear sump that I need? What do ya'll think about the rust?
Another thing is that the seller says that the ECU is a 6 spd Mines ECU, will that ECU work with my W58?

Techically it is a drop in and techically its not.. Its a JDM Motor as well. ANY SWAP u will need to buy alot of extra little things on the way. The price is good tho, but be prepared for "WTF I NEEED THAT ALSO!?" and that is quiet a bit of rust.
Whats good is that it has all the parts for the sequential turbo system from the pictures I saw.

That motor is a front sump so youll need to swap it out to a rear sump. You will need to switch the flex plate and its bolts as its pretty rusted and do a front and rear main seal change while your at it. The harness is cut so youll either have to buy a new one and then rewire the harness or pay a crap load to have someone repair and rewire the harness to fit the sc. I bought my motor from jdm engines corp for 1900 shipped. The motor was pretty decent. Uncut harness, good compression test (changed hg anyways), came complete basically.
