Both of them motors are basically identical, aslong as you lower the compression on the one in the car now.

You arent going to get much for 6,000 from a swap. 6,000 into an existing motor is alot easier and cheaper. Do as kirk says and go to his website, loads of info. Hes personally converted his NA 2jz to a NA-T.

Its very straightforward. Pistons (for compressions) as well as rods if you want anything insane. Injectors, fuel system and of course turbo/oil lines and intercooler. There are other little things however for the most part its going to cost a whole lot cheaper than swapping a STOCK 2jzgte in. Everywhere Ive looked has said either turbo the existing car or look for a turbo model, in this case turbo the existing motor.

Jims alittle pricey but hes honest.
