+1, Jeff at Champion is one of the best resources that we have, he'll be glad to help if he can, and he usually gets us parts at a great deal, even after shipping costs!!

For the ground, I used one of the bolts that mounts the black platform in the trunk (the thing the rear wooden deck is hinged to). I just sanded the paint down, and put the ground between the car and the platform, without the rubber spacer that is there initially. And for the power, I ran...

thats really funny, i had to stop reading after a few pages of bashing

+1, thats what I always do to test a starter. If you can hear the starter clicking, it will most likely start after a few whacks..but that means your starter needs to be R&R'd, which sucks. GL with it.

and it sounds like you have a good condition GE that you could sell/NA>T

keep your targa, with nice condition interior and go turbo. you already know everything about your car, I wouldn't want to jump in a (sounds to be) beater and spend a bunch of money fixing it up, imo. The wiring harness is also real scary too, who knows what isn't hooked up right. unless you...

That supra looks to be in really good condition, good find!! GL with the swap, there is plenty of info on here to help you along, the Search button will be your friend soon... Do you have any interior pics?? BTW, what year is it?

That looks like a beamer to me btw

Don't mean to thread-jack here, but I bet nobody knows what this car is :naughty:

I'll let you know for sure bigzavs

Yea I should have, lol. Thanks man. I see, thanks for the info. BTW, I am thinking about sending you a set of USDM 2JZGTE cams to machine for me; a buddy of mine has a spare set that I can buy. I'm thinking if I am going to get a set machined myself, I may as well get that extra 9...
