Default TH400 Tranny question (High Horse Power Guys)

Th400*
3 vitesse a place de 4*
7 clutch*
shift kit*
bellhousing 1jz/2jz

Is this a daily drivable transmission, and if so! What kind of work and i seeing for the install? you think it would be a straight up bult up no problem?
its going into a 1991 Toyota Soarer 1jz Gte Automatic? Would i need to get a new drive shaft?

What am i getting my self into!

For the future can you please post threads in their proper location? This is your second thread I had to move today.

$200 for a TH400 is a steal. I dont know if you've ever been in a SC/Soarer/Supra with this tranny but when you're cruising at highway speeds you can definitely feel the sacrifice. For a JZ block you'll definitely be needing the adapter for it. Im not exactly sure about the driveshaft but I'll go ahead and move this over to the Engine/Performance section to see what the others think.

You're gonna need a new driveshaft. Just had this conversation earlier today so I'm passing on the info- the SC is longer than the supra so you'll need a custom. I've heard you need a GM spline but the jury is still out on that one.

These guys do. They are pretty familiar with the Supra. Just call them and tell them what you have so they have a general idea of what you're working with. Then they will tell you how to specifically measure it and voila! You have a custom 1 piece with metal spacers instead of rubber bushings that crack over time.
