Wow i've abandoned my thread for quite some time. I feel ashamed lol =/ but any who...I just got word that my adapter plate is finished. I just need to go check it out and see if there are any finishing touches that it needs.

-ihiryu
The flywheel i'm using is the 3sgte flywheel. As for drilling the holes i will be taking it to the same machine shop to get it redrilled.

I got all the parts so hopefully this weekend I'll have the swap done. So excited! i'm aiming to have it done for the lexus event at the Toyota Speedway in Baldwin Park CA. Although my car looks like crap cause it has no paint job I still wanna show up. I missed out on registration but hopefully they can work something out for me. (doubt it) =/

Won't you also need to re-weld the ring? 3SGTE starter ring is facing the wrong way.

You are better off getting a 4runner/pickup V6 flywheel and re-drilling and machining that to fit. I already have a machine shop set up with a jig to do all this, PM me if you are interested.
