Can I swap a Twin Turbo 2JZE engine and 6 spd tranny into my 88 Supra? Any info or experiance on this swap?

Thanks for your time

For the transmission, you will need to bang out the tranny tunnel as well as cut the hole where the shifter comes out of an inch or so because the tranny is a bit longer than the auto. It would take extensive modification on the wiring harness to make everything work correctly. You would also need to bang in the firewall a little. The rear turbo wont fit.

But yes, it is very possible. And there are quite a few guys out there with 2jz MKIIIs. Just need some money.
