Nice job. Would love to replace the W58 in my SC3 with this instead of the R154. Still new to SCs so I have a lot to learn. Do you have a parts list (at least for the 1UZ)?

Thanks

I think it would be easier since the flywheel and pressure plate are easier to find. All you would need is a clutch disc from a Nissan

i don't mean to thread jack, but there was a build thread just made on zilvia 10 days ago with this exact setup into a s14.

Not at all I like to see more builds like these. I can appreciate the time he spent on taking all those pictures.

I'm curious to see if those Tundra headers will fit the sc400 with minimal work.

I am watching this like crazy! As soon as you figure out the speedometer and maybe cruise control, I'll probably take the plunge and try it out on a LS400.. I cant wait!!!

Great job!

sc4doubleo, did you have to mill down your bellhousing? from the zilvia thread and messaging the maker of the thread he said it was needed. also the spacer for the throwout bearing....


did you do yours different? or just leave those details out?

Ok so you are not using a g35 nor 350z clutch setup.. so what clutch setup you someone need for the 2jz/1jz?

the flywheel you are using is a 3vz correct? since i will be going with the same i shouldn't run into a problem with spacing except for a spacer on the TOB.

sorry for the questions. this week im ordering a flywheel and conversion kit. just want to be sure.

I'm confident it could hold decent power, but I will find out down the road.
