R154 Question

>>16286984
Are you that retard who bought the R154 that wont shift for $400?

Get a fucking W55 with a steel plate for $200. Its what the MK3 used.

As far as converting. Should be easy. Its all predrilled for manual parts, just gotta cut holes.

Drive shaft might be different, trans mount holes might be different

Go ask on a Toyota forum. People have write ups for this.

no im not that retard, i am a different retard. Im trying to buy a supra but every one i find is a fucking auto transmission

Auto might be better to buy cause more likely not owned by a hoon.

If you've never done a swap it can be daunting, and if you can't find a direct donor car, pricey and difficult finding all the parts

>>16287153
Makes sense, its just easier in the short term to not have to make the swap.

finding a donor car might be hard because im having trouble finding affordable manuals in the first place. Im not gonna spend more on the donor car

I just found this guide which hadn't been finished, I haven't gone through it too thoroughly so if you see anything wrong/worth adding then comment and I'll put it in....
I can safely say, having done both, it is MUCH easier to pull the engine when doing a box swap unless you have a nice hydraulic lift!

The things you will need to convert your auto Supra to a manual are:
1. An R154 manual gearbox (You can do W58 too from an NA but this is based around a turbo box being fitted)
2. A flywheel (and 6 bolts)
3. The lower mounting brackets that attach the bell housing to the engine
4. The master and slave clyinders + pipework
5. Smaller brake pedal from a manual car and the clutch pedal
6. Front section of the prop shaft from a manual car
7. The cover plate between the engine and 'box
8. A clutch (friction disc, pressure plate, bolts, fork and release bearing)
9. A pilot/spigot bearing (the manual cars have a bearing on the end of the crank, autos don't have this)
You should get new clutch and flywheel bolts really
All the holes are pre-drilled so you don't have any major work in that regard, it is all just bolt on. You can easily do this in a weekend or if you're quick in a day.

>6. Front section of the prop shaft from a manual car
this is gonna require your drive shaft to be rebalanced.

rest looks normal

Thank you senpais, Saved for reference. Btw if the car im looking at is NA, but i would like to convert it to a turbo. will the r154 work with a NA engine or will i need the w58. If thats the case id keep waiting and find either a turbo or manual because buying a new engine and tranny for a full swap is kind of meaningless

Nice, I was wondering how that went.

>>16287056
The turbo models came with R154s and N/A came with a W58.

What that guy said at the end ^^ too many guides to be asking.
