-pure automotive in MD specializes in this swap and offers installation of everything with their wiring harness kit + stand alone ecu for 6k.
-Add 500 to cover miscellaneous expenses and I'm still sitting at 35k on the high end of things. Only 9k more than a stock, brand new frs with 125 more HP but $15-55k less than a Supra. What exactly is the downside here?

What about a tranny? Axles? Suspension? Exactly what do you think you will cover with $500 for miscellaneous? You will not end up with a drivable car for $35K. That does not include the RB kit or other body mods that would match your dream picture.
How hard have you even looked for a Supra? There are loads for under the $50K to $90K you cite. Hell if you are going to rebuild a whole FRS then you could even start with and 80s one for under $5K
