Shaggy,

Are you familiar with the R154 at all? It can handle 600 hp easily. I don't know what your power goals are but don't knock it until you try it. What is the reason you do not want a Toyota tranny?

And also you guys gotta stop the you want this or that transmission. Your gonna have Bill ...

If this helps at all some of the newer manual tranny Chevy Colorado's and GMC Canyon's came with a more updated version of the R154. Since Spicer makes all of GM's driveline parts i'm sure they have one available direct from Spicer. I'll look into it a little more. Not sure what size they are.

Yeah Formula D is a good time. I usually go the event in Wall, NJ every year since it's closest to me. Just wish they used a slightly larger venue in the northeast.

91turboGSX

He flipped the turbo around so it faces the opposite direction. The manifold is the stock 4g63 manifold. Since it's a tangential housing it moves it away when mounted like this.

I personally can't stand how it looks.

91turboGSX

I just used the stock ones from the 4g64 I pulled out of it. They bolt right up as long as you clearanced the firewall.

91turboGSX

Nice to see the car my intake manifold I got came from.

Welcome to the site Alex, i'm sure you'll have plenty of info to share.

Definitely be down there to give your dyno a workout. Diesel torque anyone?

Sorry for the threadjacking.

91turboGSX

Bill that thing looks amazing. If i'm not one of the reserved people then you can add my name on that list. I'll send the one I have back if you'd like. Let me know.

The things your doing for the 4g63 community is astonishing. Glad we have someone like you around.

Thanks Bill! Show that man some ...

Yeah I must say I've seen quite a few all out purpose built racecars built at their own homes. You need to pay someone to make you a car for it to be considered a race car? That $40k difference is someone elses labor costs.

91turboGSX

Bill your the man! I can't say thanks enough for the effort you've been putting into these. You've helped me immensely. You ever need anything you let me know.

BTW By cutting the end plate off did that in turn shorten the bellhousing or did you make up for that loss?

91turboGSX

Check out Supramania.com you should be able to find out what your looking for if you search.

I know there are 600+ hp MKIII Supra's out there running this transmission so in my opinion it should be fine.

91turboGSX

If my measurements are correct the shifter location works out to be within a half an inch or so longer than the stock D50/MM transmission. Which in my opinion is better in this truck.

91turboGSX

I'll be running a 5 speed R154 from a MKIII Toyota Supra. Very strong transmission. Should handle any abuse I can put through it. Hopefully.

Bill Hincher from this site is the mastermind behind the custom bellhousing.

Here is my '90 Mitsubishi Mighty Max that I am doing a 4g63 swap into and alot of other custom gooderies.

Those are the 2 bolt holes I was talking about in another thread to make those brackets. That's where I was gonna try to work something out with anyways. Then maybe make the brackets come out in a way to mount a scattershield.

Just my $0.02...

Most people just drop in a 4g63 do the wiring and plumb it up and call it good. I'm focusing on cleanliness, attention to detail, and just quality work, nothing half assed.

Factory shortblock with a built head. Top mount tubular exhaust manifold with a FP Green perched on top. Custom front IC. ARP ...

Hey guys i'm looking for two sheets of rigid fiberglass core carbon fiber 18" x 36". Anyone have any idea where I can find/purchase such a piece? I searched around but can't find anything that big that is rigid.

And yes I am aware of the shortage so no need to touch base on that.

-Cory

91turboGSX

I'm ready Bill! Well sort of. Still workin' on the engine setup but I am ready to get my shifter, tranny crossmember, and convert to hydraulic clutch all sorted out.

So when do I get one of these in my hands? As soon as you see a Paypal payment from me?

91turboGSX

I have one being swapped at the moment. It's a little more than the average swap though...

91turboGSX

Very witty :roll: .
So by not answering any of my direct questions other than pricing what are you saying? Maybe your saying this is my world, I know everything, and you should buy my bellhousing based on my un-tested egotistical merrit alone? Its funny how you talk down to potential clients that ...

91turboGSX

I've personally experienced what the R154 can handle behind a 7M in a Supra and I'd say you wouldn't need a stronger tranny. The synchros go bad after a while of heavy abuse but that's about it.

You can buy them cheap enough.

People loose thier feet/legs when clutchs/flywheels/bellhousings come ...

WHAT INJECTORS ARE YOU USING? IF YOU HAVE THE STOCK MANUAL INJECTORS THEY ARE 450'S AND A AUTOMATIC COMPUTER THAT RUNS 360'S WILL CAUSE YOU TO HAVE ISSUE THAT YOU ARE DESCRIBING

Did you look into this man's statement? You sure the ECU is paired with your injector setup? Also when you say new ECU ...

I don't think a non recirculated BOV would cause those symptoms. Non recirculated BOV would only effect between shifts. I honestly think it's not metering air correctly. Hard to say since i'm not there to see it but I think it's something with your MAF.

91turboGSX

There are a couple threaded bungs on the block further behind the engine mounts. That's where I was gonna try to fabricate some braces off of.

Still have yet to get pictures and start working on this....

91turboGSX

Kinda sounds like the MAF to me...

91turboGSX

I sourced this from some website that is installing these into Volvo's.

"Note the Supra's output shaft uses a sliding spline / slip yoke affair vs for example a fixed flange attached to the output shaft with a big locknut in a Volvo. The ' yoke' information below details matching components used to ...

I would try to contact someone from Jawsgear. I guess they are familiar with the Toyota driveshafts and such.

91turboGSX

Now Bill what do you mean by non serviceable? You can replace the u-joints in a MKIII Supra. They are sealed units though. But you should be able to buy them individually. And rumor has it that they don't go bad.

Here is a breakdown of the driveshaft from a MKIII Supra if this helps at all ...

91turboGSX

I must've missed that post. Sorry Bill. But now it's all pretty clear as to what's going on. Thanks.

91turboGSX

So your putting a bearing into the crank where say in the auto dsms the flexplate center ring would be? Are you providing the bearing?

I wasn't aware you were doing this with the pilot bearing. Wasn't aware about the Toyota clutch either. Did you mention this earlier? Must've missed it.

91turboGSX

You need to machine a pilot bearing into the flywheel to accept that input shaft. And you'll need to get a custom fwd DSM clutch disk with the R154 splines. Any clutch company should be able to do this easily without hassle.

91turboGSX

Hey i've been waiting for a while too....Which bellhousing has my name on it?

Looks great Bill can't wait to see it together with the spacer.

91turboGSX

Bill i'm willing to prepay if you need some money. Just give me the good word.

91turboGSX

Well you did say it's a '93 Evo front clip so it is the same as the DSM 4g63 except for the manifolds and some other little stuff. Therefore it will be all the same as installing a USDM 4g63. I would say save your money and just buy a USDM 4g63.

91turboGSX

Looks great! I just want to thank you for all the time, money, and effort you put into this. I know you'll make me happy once I recieve my bellhousing!

Thanks again.

91turboGSX

<--------also readily waiting. Updates?

91turboGSX

As soon as you get these done let me know and money will be sent your way. Looks great!

Thanks for all the time you put into this or else I'd be stuck with just another stock Mighty Max tranny or something.

91turboGSX

Bill I would like to purchase one of these bellhousings. If you can PM me your paypal address and such that'd be great.

Thanks
