DELIVERY!!!
Motor/trans showed up finally after a long week of me impatiently waiting.
Was surprised to see a full size semi-truck coming through a neighborhood...
Arrived packaged up pretty nicely, no damage!
It ended up being a lot cleaner than I expected, 72,533 km (supposedly) about 45,000 miles
Come to find out after looking over the motor, it was a JZX110 1JZ instead of the JZX100 1JZ that I thought it was. No big deal..or so I thought, a new throttle body, ecu, j-pipe, MAF, upper and lower intake manifolds and IACV later it was ready to go. Also had to swap out the upper and oil pans, dipstick and turbo oil drain and convert to rear sump, harder to find than I thought..found one from a local guy for a decent price.
The R154 it came with doesn't look like any I've seen before, looks like it has a shifter extension already on it.. shifts totally different than friends R154sas well. Anyone seen one like this before? If so, is there anything different internally about it?
Didn't get to see everything, but everything I saw in the bottom end looked good.
Of course had to paint the oil pan (spray paint king)
New Spec stage 3+
Easy way to hold the flywheel in place for bolt torquing!!
