6-spd conversion for SC400?
#33
wow
This v160 conversion kit is a dream come true.
I bought the SC400 because it's beauty and Supra styling/frame. Now i wanna Pro race the thing. The 5 speed auto ('98+) is nice, but it's slow for a racing application. I even applied for my amature race license this year (pray).
Since money is tight without sponsors, I hope I can piece together this kit and go 6 speed in a year. I hope you guys will be making more and selling these kits over this year.

Off the top of my head, it looks like you've got a good handle on what's needed. You'll need a driveshaft and preferably a GS400 rear end with the 3.26 ratio. Those are inexpensive. A new clutch master cylinder, pedals, 5 speed console, etc. With our adapter the hard part is done. We can provide an adapter that lets you bolt the transmission directly to the V8, and a clutch kit that is also 100% bolt on.
Thanks again,

Driveshaftshop.com can make you a driveshaft for the V160. There have been a large number of people that have converted the SC300 to V160, and their driveshaft would be the same as yours.
The clutch master cylinder is stock from the Toyota Supra turbo as well as the pedals.
The engine that I posted a pic of is built from top to bottom. A quick rundown is 4.7L, 9.77:1 CR, destined for twin turbo action. The intake manifold is a custom high flow manifold with a Q45 adapter. Here is the link to the build:

Just to gather all the needs in the thread we need:
MVP Adapter plate,
MVP Clutch kit
Supra Pedals (clutch, break)
V160 Transmission
fabricated Drive shaft
Clutch master cylinder.
Shifter **** and gate.
Anything else needed for the conversion?
there's a 12v jumper to trick the ECU into thinking it's always in Neutral.
What about parking the car? The wheel lock and key removal, how does that work with the Manual?
I took a search on parts.com and came across two very different prices, $1,800 and about $4,800. Both have very little desctiption. Did the v160 come with the TT and NA Supra?
I'm saving up my cash now, when is the next group buy? I know tooooo many questions. I'm just excited for this chance. I'm dying to get on the track.
