Saw a Supra rear end, really nice on ebay, it wasnt too expensive either, wonder what kind of work would be involved and has anyone pulled this switch off

Supra TT rear? It's been done by at least one guy - he built a Zupra out of a 240Z ;D However I never saw pics of the rear end nor did I ever talk with the guy. The rears are pretty strong but the ratio might not be to your liking. In the 3.21 range I THINK depending upon if it's an Auto rear or a 6speed rear. Auto is deeper. Dunno if it would have to be narrowed but I'm pretty sure it mounts on a nice subframe so be sure to get that.

 

Scottie, did you ever measure up a Supra rear when you were looking?

Damon did not say which Supra. I was looking at the Mk IV which has a 3.13:1 ratio with the manual trans, perfect for me but probably not desirable for a L6 or even a V-8. Do not have the dimension off the top of my head but it is definitely too wide for a stock-fendered Z. By my measurement I recall I would not have had to narrow it for the 3" flares if I used wheels with a deep backspace.
