motor swap: what kind? how much?

[guspeed]

Okay my new supra has 198,000k miles and a motor swap would probably be better. What motor should I swap in? Any websites I can go to see the prices and stuff? And how much would a motor swap with all the basic stuff done to it so it was last a long time?

I'm really stupid so I need all the help I can get. Thank you for your help!

jdm, motor world. If money is no object you would like the 2jzgte

^^ 2jz, is more difficult but would be well worth it.

The easiest and most affordable swap would be another 7MGE or going turbo with the 7MGTE. Here's a site with a detailed list on what you will need to do to swap to a 7MGTE:

go with the 2jz if you have funds to blow. the 7m is nice but no where near the power of the 2jz

I spent 1900 on swappin my ge(give or take few dollars)

950 for ge shipped to the shop
Oil pump
radiator
Hoses
Clutch
Throttle Cable
O-ring
Misc. Gaskets
Oil
And Labor for 550

Im sure theres things im forgetting but a for about 500 more i could have done a complete gte swap, but that was extra money i couldnt accumulate at the time

tachyon perfromance, a local shop here.There young guys really bout my age, but they know there stuff. The quoted me 500 to pull and drop the motor and the 50 was for taking the motor off the truck, cant blame them thther than that i feel like i got over on them for doing so much work for so little, but i guess it all depends on how ya look at it

I just replaced my engine with JDM engine that had just had a new MHG and major engine work done. I won it in an auction on eBay for 500.00, and had it installed locally for 630.00 at Drift Tech in Vista CA. Drift Tech did an awesome job, the motor purrs, and so far feels really strong.
