Those solder connections will be better than crimps.

just buy a engine gasket set for the 1j, ppl hate parting them out, and besides they'll come in handy and aren't too expensive. do a search online a bunch of vendors have them, try carsons, or champion, or driftmotion.

i found a 1jz-gte gasket set from http://store.driftmotion.com/Static/...egasketset.php
165$
I dont want to cut my transmission tunnel for the shifter to come through(or the 2.25inch from where it used to be). where can i buy a r154 ball hinge so i can cut and extend it?http://www.clubna-t.com/forums/showthread.php?t=744

I started extending the harness on mine, but got like six wires in and decided it was a lot of tedious work. You can also extend the body plugs, which I hear is a lot less daunting.

i called carson toyota today to see if i could order some parts from toyota japan, i need the shifter housing(part#33521-24040) and shifter control lever(part#33570-24010). well he said he would call me back after he gets an email back with pricing from toyota japan. he calls me back in like 25mins and says that they dicontinued one of the parts but he doesnt know which one.my question is. does anyone know what the part number is on a r154 shifter housing and shift control lever? other then that i still need to.....
1.extend the harness(i am half done)
2.mod stock exhaust(should i cut out the cat and resonators??)
3.cut tunnel or buy supra(dont know what year???) shifter housing to cut and extend.
4.pedal conversion(waiting for kit)
5.gaskets (really should replace a few gasket)
6.drive shaft

also how would you guys go about finishing this swap??

i picked you the sc300 OEM manual pedal kit 270$ it came with brake & clutch pedal and the mounting bracket assembly. also picked up a walbro fuel pump 98$.the only thing holding me back is two small leaks coming from valve covers and front main seal or oil pan(havent taken on timing belt cover) i am think of just droping it in and when the gasket set comes in pull the radiator out and do it with the engine in the car.1992 sc300 1jz & r154 swap-picture-366.jpg
