My Supra ... Any Ideas?

Yeah, I've had a 1987 Supra 7M GTE - auto - for just about a year now ... odometer (and gas, speedo, etc) went out at 198,xxx .... I bet it probably has upwards of 205k miles - and now that I'm out of school it's TIME!

*Paint goes on this Friday the 30th ... did a bunch of bondo / putty and primered / sanded ... turned out really nice ... still haven't decided what
color (s) to do. ha.

* Just seeing if anyone has any ideas engine-wise (it's running really weak) : whether I should rebuild, get a JDM swap 7mgte, or if any other engines have worked out better for anyone. Maybe the Supra or Nissan twin turbo?!? I was thinking an '05 WRX STi ... if thats even possible or whatever... I'm sure someone on here has done some kind of project?

*Basically it's a blank slate that just needs the last touches. I want to make this work (have a good, reliable, fast and cool looking car) and get rid of my truck!
