thanks for the tips. did you mean the 1jz swap? If so, thats a bit out the price range i would want, this car would be strictly budget, as in full exhaust and intake + head gasket and a used full stock turbo set up plus a decent intercooler to keep engine temps nice and get a few more ponies. and im fairly confident I could do the turbo myself with the help of the TSRM. the 1jz appears at LEAST $1k plus shipping. i can hopefully get all the turbo parts for $200 used, intake $150, exhaust will be more but i would be doing it if i went 1jz anyways.

i will read more and rethink my options though.
