nice nath but i was thinking more like 2.5 2.8 3.0 or 3.2 bmw stable for cheapness. ideal would be S2000 to keep the theme going but thats about £2000 for engine box and aftermarket ecu where as bmw if you dont go m power is about 3-500 quid.

the gearbox is interchangeable with most of the big toyotas and they are an upgrade engine to some of the supras and i think they can take turbo's
