No there are kits for the Altezza, putting in a 3SGTE is not a straight swap or an easy one, but the headroom is higher with a 3SGTE than the S3GE that you have (i.e. mine is 301BHP may be able to get more with a bigger tubby, but yours will max out at 280. Although for BIG power internals are required, then you just put forged pistons in either engine.

Basically mine is ready for the next stage about 450 BHP, but as it is going to be sold in teh next year I can't justify the £'s to spend on it.

There's an engine and manual gearbox etc from an RS200 on eBay at the moment, you could ask the guy if he's willing to sell the gearbox on its own ?

There are a quite a few more off-the-shelf tuning kits around for the RS200 than there are for the IS200, although a lot of them may be more Japanese-based (for obvious reasons). e.g. just one of them is here.
