Yes it is very possable, which you would have found out if you checked out the other sections, cause I just answered a bunch of 1jz posts exactly like this one. As for the bracing, tell your freind not to waste his time, the MKIII is 3600lbs because it was built with strength i mind. Drifing.. come on tell him to quit watching so much Initial D and try racing the right way, it takes twice as long to go around a corner sidways on a track as it does to do it right without squeling the tires, but to each there own I guess.

Re: engine swap

Not extremly fast by any means, but it does have 280ish stock, but it's all about the potential the engine has. So it has the potential to be extremly fast with the right upgrades and tuning.
