Orion; yea bro been a while. hope you get your mk3 and start those "Turbo Dreams". no joke.
Poppa Gargamel and stinky cat friend; if you already have a car and just want the greasy work done when you(or I) get the clip(dont buy a motor set. you need alot of shit from the clip, TRUST ME!) also, you will want a clutch installed when the motor is out. dont want to fire it up and find 1/72137653 parts clutch goodness left. a good clutch is 3-4-500. rps is good and 400. os gikken is way more, so is exeddy, but both ow3n most others. dont even think the stock DP is even get life in the USA. it morphs into soda cans after trash day. the stock radiator failed after 3-4 months use. i highly recomend spending the 400 on a koyo. overheating would suck. the 1jz is strong, but there is no reason to let overheating be an issue IMO. As with all performance engines. you really need to invest about 3k on a clip and then go from there. the harness is the only real "critical" part of the swap. i would think if i was to supply the car around 5-6k. but i would make sure it was worth 5-6k as a sports car. be fast, look good, and go fast.
