4AGE swap

I was wondering if anyone has attempted to swap the 4AGE with a 1G-GTE 2.0L l6 twin turbo? It came out of the 1986-91 Soarer in Japan. I was thinking about it cuz it produces between 185-210 hp and its much smaller than the 1JZ 3.0. I have seen a few on ebay. Anyone think it can be done or has anyone done it yet? If not, it would be awesome to be a one of a kind things, you know?

Of course it could work. Problem in this case is accessibility to fab/parts.

I have a few buddies that work for muffler shops here in town. I can get them to make me a custom exhaust and manifolds if I needs them to. Also, my cousin races at the local dirt track so he has almost everything possible to weld and cut, we just need the supplies. All I would need is someone to help me that has alot of knowledge on swapping engines cuz I have no clue of what to do, lol.

why go with the 6 cylinder? seems like a ton of work for a motor that won't fit very well and only makes 210 hp why not get something with 4 cylinders that makes the same power or a v8. if you really just like 6 cylinders just go with a jz they make tons of power and are easy to get parts for in america
