Haven't done anything else to the GS yet since it was purchased with a bad trans. I haven't even transfered the title into my name or registered it yet, no need until I get the T56 in there and get it on the road.
Also I can not talk about the intake manifold since Im not a vendor here. If you would like to know more about it then we'll have to find another way to talk about it outside of CL.

Just a little update. Here's the beginning stage of the adapter plate to make sure it'll work. Right now its made out of wood and not trimmed to the shape of the trans.....but it's gonna work. As soon as my machinest gets his CNC back up and running I'm gonna put him to work


MKIV supra clutch pedal assembly is in. What a pain this was since the firewall has a curve to it. Had to get a little wild with the air hammer to flatten it out as much as possible. No mods necessary to the pedal bracket, just a support bar for the top of the assembly welded to the factory under dash steel bracket. Still gotta trim down the brake pedal to the size of a manual pedal. Unfortunately the Supra brake pedal is shaped wildly different, so it wont work



Also picked up a set of Lowenhart BR5's off a fellow CL member. Staggered 18" fitment. Pretty excited about getting these! Next will be a set of either Megan Racing or Ksport coilovers to bring it down a couple inches. Also waiting for my LED interior kit as well.
I'll keep you guys updated as more gets done

Get a supra Mk4 brake pedal rubber boot, and cut yours down to fit it. Works?

Thats what I have. I actually have the outline traced out on the steel part of the brake pedal but didn't take off the rubber for the picture.

Another update:

Plans have changed for the T56 swap at this time. Had a V160 fall into my lap!! Just need to do a rebuild on it and it'll be good to go. I still plan on putting together a conversion kit for the T56 if the interest is there but for now I'm gonna keep this sucka all Toyota
