QUOTE (mkernz22 @ Apr 17, 2013 - 10:10 AM)  First off, welcome to the forum. Secondly, read up on some of the swap threads on here too, lots of useful information. There is no "Toyota Supra" Beams Engine with VVT-i, it's the Beams Redtop Engine with VVT-i that was in some of the SS-III Celica's and possibly a different version too. The Caldina motor is the ST215 engine (3SGTE), which I do not believe has been documented too well yet on here, but I know a couple people have messed with them before. Your best bet would be to go with the ST205 3SGTE engine, which is out of this generation's GT4. You could also go with the V6 route with the 1MZFE if you want to keep it N/A as well as have an engine that is in the USA and has parts that are easy to order at any auto parts store. But there is a VVTi Supra Engine  2JZ VVTiAnyway, welcome to the forum Logan! I recently completed my 3rd Gen 3SGTE swap. It has been done numerous times on this site and is well documented. You can easily do it with the resources on this site. I came from Subarus so all I really know is turbo haha 3SGTE was my best option. V6 turbo? Now that's an option haha Good luck
