hmm.. I mean you have a motor for it.. what is your gut telling you? which path is cheaper? do you have the time to work on a new one? I would FIRST look around and see if any 7mgte's are even available. you might be able to find one thats cherry just needing some TLC. in which case you have a whole shell of tlc waiting to be used. But maybe you might find the only supra you can get your hands on is a lemon.. not leamons. =) and if thats the case what other option do you have? If i had another reliable Daily Driver and enough cash to buy a reliable supra shell. I would do the swap (i have the time and the process would be informative to say the least.)
is time an option? how about mechanical know-how. is cash for problems that arise during the swap a problem? all these play into your decision.
