These guys totally hooked me up. They are supra experts. I needed a very specific 1JZ-GTE to do my swap, and they went out of their way to ensure it had all the details I needed. I needed a front mount oil sump with the 5 speed tranny. The engine was very clean and the inlets were covered with tape. The price was very competitive to local shops and ebay. They shipped it directly to my house on a pallet that was well secured. They're offering tech support with any questions I might have with the swap. I totally recommend these guys for any supra related parts. It's cool to have enthusiasts helping enthusiasts.. Tell them where you heard about them and check out the pics..

nice

actually people say the same thing when I get them what they need, customers are often very happy and like to spread the word, nothing wrong with that.

He got the service we normally provide and he was happy about it, and that was the special deal. I would never pay someone to talk good about my company.

Serously.. Bigaaron did get me a damn fine engine. This was a big step for me to make this swap happen. I saw a bunch of junk out there, sifting thru web half-cut yards. It was hard to find the right sump/tranny/price combo, and they found it. I pulled the old engine last weekend, selln' the leftovers now, and I'm going to start test fitting the mounts this weekend. Typical weekend warrior.

if you dont mind me asking... what did you pay for all of this? if you dont want to make prices public, PM me. if this place is as good as you say at sourcing out pieces to make the swap easy as possible... i may go to them if the price is right.

Doh! I dont remember. He has a white 87 4runner, if you ever see it around the base, that him.

they are great business people, i picked up a 7mgte w/wiring harness and ecu a while back for $300 and they included a stock mk3 ic and ignitor for free :) . they do some awesome work too, seeing those 1j's in the ma70 and mx73? was a cool extra treat.
