but its a lot of work for just 4.0, I will look into it.
..

It'll be a whole let more work for just a 4.5lt over the 4.0l.

I dont know what prices for wrecked sc400's are in the states but I have a buddy here who just bought a whole car for $1700Aus. If you want more displacement cheap, this is the only way.

I can pick up a 1uz over here for 350 bucks, but not sure if the 1uz can handle my power goals.

I want to make 650rwhp, the 1jz would be easier to achieve this goal but power band would suck.

I think either way to reach your power goals you are in for alot of time and money. There are people with complete factory motors producing around 500hp on factory motors in Australia, with the correct component selection I would believe 650whp is possible. In NZ a F40 replica company was making 800hp on 1UZ.

Hate to state the obvious but whats wrong with a 2jzgte or a 2jzge-t? I know it's common but at least you won't have too much drama getting information on the swap.

Someday..I will do the LSx in an rx7 :)

Not sure if its worth 1.5jz just to gain 500cc, unless I can find a 2jz-gte bottom real cheap.

tough choices...

I have seen people over here make 600+hp on stock 1jz...not sure how long they lasted though and I am sure the powerband sucked!
