    a fair bit of work to do it properly, but if your spending the dollars why not go to a 1jz? more power, more torque and more reliable.

    ive done 1g's into luxes b4 and im in the process of doing a 1j at the moment and it actually seems easier with the 1j as there are no sump mods needed.

    cheers

    im getting there dude, just trying to get some of that desired space.

    mgfe,
    you could spend as much money as you want depending on what you require out of the conversion. anywhere from about 5k to 10k depending on what sort of job you want.

    ??? arent you talking about the complete conversion? ie engine gbox exhaust wiring fuel system?

    if its just swapping gboxs then its an easy job and most components will bolt straight in. maybe mod gbox mount and tailshaft but the rest should be a bolt in affair.

    cheers

    Depends what you were looking for, and whether you already have most of the bits needed or not. If I had a moment of sheer madness, I'd maybe offer to look at it for you, not sure about that though.
