It's been some time since I posted an update seeing I really haven't had anything to update about. But to get to the good stuff finally getting ready to do the cd009 swap I the car now that I have everything I need. My Collins adaptor kit arrived a few days ago
Adaptor plate 6 puck sprung clutch disc Pressure plate Flywheel Clutch line and throw out bearing Pilot bearing, bolts and driveshaft adaptor for rear diff Driveshaft Serialnine shifter Borgwarner s366 for the future plans Ls400 break calipers, just order ebc slotted rotors and ebc yellow stuff pads and steel braided break linesHopefully here soon I'll be able to get started on the manual swap, also sending out the gauge cluster for new lights and needles
Made some small progress yesterday with the cd009 swap, do to it being colder today not going to work in it today but this weekend I'm hoping to have the cd009 in and working on getting ever thing buttoned up.
Let the fun begin Getting the lower part of the dash taken apart to give myself room to work getting the clutch pedal assembly installed. Made it a lot easier getting the drill in there for drilling out the holes for the clutch master cylinder Removed the center console in preparation for removing the auto gear selecter Holes for the clutch master cylinder drilled. Used a 35mm hole saw for the larger center hole. I don't know right off hand the size drill bit for the 2 smallwe out holes Clutch pedal, and sc300 oem manual brake pedal installed. The mk4 supra clutch pedal assembly worked perfect. Just had to shift the upper part of the bracket to get the bolt started. Sc300 clutch master cylinder
Well I've run into a few small issues with getting the swap done. The rear main seal that in had ordered was wrong luckily one of my local parts store was able to get one. Installed the rear main then went to install the flywheel from the Collins kit to only find out it is the wrong flywheel.
Cd009 on the left stock auto on the right Bellhousing cut off the cd009 and adaptor plate installed Stock auto U1 bellhousing and t56 throw out bearing installed Getting the wiring done jumped the nss wires black/white and black together and the reverse lights on the same plug pink/black and yellow. The cd009 reverse switch pig tail has yellow and orange/silver, to get the reverse lights wire the yellow to yellow and pink/black to orange/silver Tested the reverse lights with some extra length of wire to make sure they worked Pilot bearing bushing adaptor installed into crank And here is where the issues stared the bolt hole diameter on the flywheel is slightly smaller than the crank And the pilot bearing adaptor stick out to far past the flywheel.
Hoping to get the right flywheel asap and get the swap finished up. Everything else is ready to go just gotta get the flywheel and clutch installed and the trans put in then button up all the small things
Huge amount of work, but it'll be well worth it. My buddy's 1uz/W58 combo is such a blast I love the idea of having a manual behind that engine. I need to get a single piece driveshaft for my car I've just been too damn cheap.

It has defenantly been a lot of work but not as bad as I expected. I think the worst part was getting the bolts for the bellhousing out and it's probably going to be worse putting them in bc the cd009 is a larger trans. I can't wait to see how much of a difference it's going to make with the manual compared to the auto. Just going to be shorter geared with the cd009 and the 3.92 rear end
I'm so spoiled now with my 2jzge that I forgot how hard it is to get around the 1uz and auto trans even from underneath. You're going to be stoked on this

When I first got this sc I was thinking to going 1j or 2j then decided to keep the 1uz and go against the grain a little bit
