I have 2 sc300s. One is going to be a 1JZ 5 speed and the other is a 2jz 6 speed.
I am doing the 1J first and the car it is going in is a 1992 5 speed unit. I was told the imported W58 trannyds are not the same as the us standard equipment 5 spee din the car now. Is this true?
Is it simply a R154 tranny?
Also i found the 1JZ engine, 5 speed tranny, uncut harness, ignitor, and all the accys on it for $1900 locally. Sound good?
Please dont bash me and say use the search button. I have done so and did find some information but the more info the better.
Thanks guys!
Glad to be here!

 

If you're getting a soarer 5 speed clip it will come with the R154. That price sounds good.

 

i thought thats what it was.
Are the rear diffs on these cars one tire fryers?
What are you guys using to upgrade the rear diffs if they are?

 

Yup one wheel open diff wonders

You can use any LSD that came for the NA Supras. OEM,TRD,Kaaz etc..

 

#1 make sure the R154 you're getting is from a soarer, not a supra

#2 be prepared to purchase a push/pull type adaptor kit for like $600 (this is needed when using just about any aftermarket clutch for the tranny)

 

I'm considering a new plan to keep these threads in the engine forum since people tend to not use it and mods have to move them.

Stay tuned!

MOVED.
