Whats up guys
I was pounding on this thought for a little while now, and wanted to know youre thoughts of 6speed manual tranny from Xrunner in the SC400.
I've read that this tranny is very common in a few other vehicles and its beefy as well.
Does anyone know anything about this swap or transmission?
I know w58 is more popular around here, but I am kind of having a hard time finding one.
Any comments, input and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

 

ay6 i think go to x runner underground fourms they have alot of info my buddie has an x runner man is that thing fast he wins all the time when we race up.

 

i think the SC/Supra crowd would be much better off if someone would make a T-56 adapter, hella strong 6 speed used by many domestics and it's like $1600 new, vs paying $3500 for a used 94 supra trans..

i don't know why someone hasn't done it yet, people use TH400's on our cars.

 

I thought Neil Griffith was offering a T-56 adaptor. Yes the Supra 6 speed is a painfully exspensive swap but it is a lot of fun.

 

hrmm i haven't seen anyone with a T-56 on a 2jz or 1uz but i'm searching as of now.

 

Go over to Lextreme, Search T56, I found 3 different versions from a Full Billet bell housing to a couple adaptors, Also if you email Neil at Rush imports he can help too.

 

I believe if I am correct that the 6 speed from the x-runner is also available in the FJ cruiser. My friend has a manual one and his transmission crapped out on him twice. Just a little heads up.

 

I had that thoughts a year or two ago, and did a bunch of research- the final conclusion was alot of X-Runner folks have problems with that transmission when it's 'raced', especially with added power.

Go for it if you're set on it thought! I would go T-56, or a V160 if you really want a 6-speed- the parts are 'out there' already, instead of needing something completely one-off.

 

any more info on the t-56 adapter or that guys contact info. I was thinking about this a while back but without the adapter its pretty much a no go. I really don't know much about gm bellhousings.

 

has anyone really used any bmw 5 or 6 speeds?
i know alot of the 6 speeds are getrag...i know the older 540's v8 are very close in design to are 1uz's,and i am starting to see alot of them around crashed or parted out recently...maybe some adaptor plates for those would be nice..

 

im interested as well

 

The Xrunner 6speed is garbage, even if you could you don't want that tranny in your car period!
