2JZ-GTE Celsior waiting for a manual conversion...(need advice)

[Dr Love]

Need some info as to what i will need in terms of parts so i can start buying up. If anyone has done this conversion before your help would be appreciated but im looking for all advice and please be comprehensive (newbie modifier at work)

I don't know if you have the car already but the early GS300 is a better place to start cuz it with a 2JZGTE in japan. Aristo cuts can be had for 2K--you'll need this if you go with the LS anyway. It has the necessary front sump. wiring up the tach will be a doozy though--8 cylinder to 6. Big fuel pump will be needed. Might wanna go external Bosch 044 w/ a surge tank. Motor mount will need to be researched/sourced. I remember there was a guy who did a full write up with pics.

Anyway, that is as far as I can help ....kinda sad I guess . . . :tapedshut:

Cheers

Thanks.
Already have Celsior which has undergone 2jz conersion, but the standard auto box had crapped itself (never happy with it anyway) and i am going to convert it to manual rather than fix it...
