lol Thanks Paul , well been waiting on some Grade 12.8 bolts to come in for the last items for the 6 speed swap so in the past little bit i picked up a "Brap Brap" lol to work on while i wait on parts

here is the trans mounted to the adapter



with it painted



and while I have been waiting , here is the "Brap Brap"



and just pulled the motor out , because the rear rotor had no compression ,


and dont mind the pics but picked up a couple items that are needed for the shop

Awesome thread so far dude! Loving the progress!

Are you bolting the t56 onto the 1uz, if so what are you doing about manifold and piping etc? As I have a gt4294R Im thinking of bolting onto a 1uz, but unsure what to do about the manifold lol.

Nothing to new these days, once i had the T56 in I noticed i could't go into 4th without rev matching it , found out the T56 i have had the wrong input shaft in it , has a GTO/Corvette one .... so I can only shift 1-3 and 5-6 , but ordered up all new bearings/sync/ and the proper input shaft from "The gear Shop" great bunch of guys



Here she is in winter spec / winter tires on my MAE's
