r154 front drive shaft, modify the tranny mount, clutch peddle assy and brake peddle assy, clutch resivoir, hydro TOB, Lines for TOB, Adapter plate or custom bellhousing. Then you need the quantum auto flywheel and clutch. then a bunch of misc items

I have everything but the clutch and flywheel. Where you located? Maybe I can help ya install it if your in San Diego area!

Get the manual SC3 pedals not the MKIII pedals. I don't think you can use a MKIII master cyl., but honestly not sure.

You can't use the oem style r154 clutch if you use an adapter plate and hydraulic TOB setup because it will be pull style when you need push. What adapter are using for your R154?

And if it is a MKIII transmission then you are going to have to modify the shifter and make your own transmission mount using both the SC4 and MKIII mounts or go fully custom.

the mk3 peddle will work but i think you have to mod/rig it. I would just get a new assy from driftmotion. they have most the parts you need

Ya the MK3 pedal works with modification, but Id go with the sc300 Pedals anyway, its very uncomfortable after a while laying under dash.

THE MK3 PEDAL IS HORRIBLE!

Do not even bother wasting your time with this. It does NOT bolt up in the correct spot and WILL NOT bolt to the crash beam. This is essential. If you make a bracket to make it work, then it should be OK, but I know for a fact working in that area of the car is horrendous, so its not worth cheaping out to me. Spend the extra and dont waste your time.

MK3 Transmission requires modification to work... Custom shifter extension and custom mount... both which require welding and some work.... Get the SC or MK4 W58.


Read the FAQ on the website.

http://www.quantum-auto.com/store/in...id=11&Itemid=9

All the info you need is there. Only thing I dont list is that you could use MK3 front shaft, SC3 rear (not SC400)... but by the time you get both driveshafts.. you should of gotten the manual SC300.


Enjoy

You made it ultra confusing by posting that information.


Here.. listen.

You want to put a W58 onto your SC400 with a 1uzfe engine, right?

This is all you need, screw that long *** list above.

What do I need to do a manual swap on a SC400?
To complete a manual swap you will need the following parts
1) Quantum Auto Manual Swap Kit (includes the following)
-W58 Adapter Plate
-1uzfe Steel or Aluminum Flywheel
-1uzfe Dual Friction Clutch (standard, inquire about other clutch options)
-Quarter Master Clutch Line Kit
-Bolt Kit
2) 92+ SC300 W58 or 93.5+ MK4 Supra W58
3) SC300 Manual Driveshaft
4) SC300 Manual Clutch Pedal / Brake Pedal
5) SC300 Manual Shifter Trim
6) Quartermaster #721-100 Slave Cylinder for W58
Quantum Auto W58 Swap Kit


SC300 or MK4 W58... either one of these will work, they came with 2 different types.



SC300 Manual Driveshaft


SC Clutch Pedal / Brake Pedal


Shift Boot Trim


Quarter Master Slave



That is it. That is all you need to make this work.
