Here are the fuel lines cooming together at the rear.

This last fitment is a go. Keep in mind this motor set does not just drop in as its from a supra. we were able to use a combination of motor mount brackets and with a few more tricks, Its in there where you couldn tell if it was factory or not.

after not liking the placement of the shifter on the last test fit we reworked the trans tunnel for a perfect fit.

well this did not fly as expected,

I scored a diff from a gs400/430 and it is the correct gear needed for the 6 speed 3.2X. was hoping to use this supra lsd diff but the ring gear would fit over it. So im open diff correct gear for now.

some more progress was made . Precision intercooler and some Grip custom aluminum pipes, along with a aftermarket aluminum supra radiator.

there are some pictures on page 5...... After hacking away at my stock one i think we used one from a cressida/supra , (just the upright part ) as it was longer and was a better fit.

It clears the dead pedal pretty good , i was going to wait for a test drive to see if it becomes a problem. definatly looking to do a handbrake just have to find a few and see what i can come up with , maybee one fronm a SC would look at home?

Good luck with the hand brake, I'll probably do that later in the year.

I've been doing some reading on this, I guess you bought a 6 speed torsen diff? Everything I read on Supraforums stated that a NA Supra torsen LSD (rare) or a TT Auto torsen diff with fit right into that rear end, the 6 speed one won't work. I'm trying to locate a GS400 rear now, didn't the GS430 have a torsen rear from the factory? If so is the gearing 3.26?
