I'm thinking about going to them for a turn key 1jzgte 5spd swap.

Does anyone know if they use the 2jzswap.com kit? Or do they pretty much do custom work for everything?

I am looking forward to it. I have heard mixed reviews from various forums, but nothing too negative. It seems they know their stuff. Mostly positive feedback from this forum, which is what counts!

They do 1jgz swaps into

1JZ Swap Packages into 1989+ US Supra*, Toyota Cressida, or Lexus GS or SC300:

the packages are pretty $$ though, so I'd imagine it'd be more going into a 240, but I'm sure they'll do it. E-mail is a good option.

One of my friends had his swap done by them, I think he paid about 7000. I did my swap for only 2200 so he was kind of pissed when he saw how easy it was. In a way it better to have a shop do the work because he didnt have any swap related problems but I've had a few of them in the past. They seem like a pretty good shop, Im thinking about having them do some work.

They emailed me for the 1jz/5spd swap and it comes out to about $7500. Since I have no experience, it's the only way to go.

2jzswap.com says the 2jz/5spd swap is between 8-10k.

Just a heads up they did NOT hook up my reverse lights and told me the harness servise does not include that and it would be very hard to hook up as it was an auto 2 5 speed swap. I think Im still having problems with my wiring after I fried some n xat fixed it.It will cut out @ 3-4k rpm when in boost, but is fine when not boosting! Would you guys think it would be a good idea to take the wiring out, untape it look for any shorts or anything that is not right and rewire if neded and retape and reinstall it! Being poor I cant afford $70/hr right now because tax time is comming up and Im 1099 so I must pay my own taxes @17.5% when 18% it the max intrest any1 can charge in florida!
