im about to do the 1jz swap. i have an 87 non-turbo automatic and i ordered a front clip with the 5 speed so that i could kill two birds with one stone. i have done my fair share of engine swaps and i know how hard it can be when you are trying to peice together a swap that is why i got the front clip. im just wondering if everything is going to be as straight forward as i think it will be. let me know what else i might need that the front clip wont have. thank you!

Is ur 87's body in perfect condition? The 87 will be pretty hard to put the 1jz into u need to get motor mounts and such Bic Performance makes some. If your 87 isnt in the great of shape i would suggest getting a 89~92 hard top N/A for like $1500, there the lightest of all the supras and the 1Jz would drop right in.
