If i recall i think the x90 doesn't have a extended shifter housing but just has a shifter with a bend so it it doesn't hit a/c controls and such but bippu's first picture is the Soarer r154 that i was referring to and that should be in the same place as a sc300/supra mk4 w58 so i would think that tranny would work in a 147 without any problems

Well jus got the gs inspected...major nees are strut rods, and rear rotors. Anyonehave any roubles replacing just the ushings? I saw a thread on here where a few people chimend in but it was froo 07' Anyone recent have anopinon onjust doing the bushings? I couldnt find the actual strut rods anywhere other than my job (lexus dealer) ad even with my discount its still 131$ a peice. I just ordere bushings like **** it. Think I may go back and ook for stronger stiffer bushings.

That is just a wrthless swap and I wouldn't do it for nothing. Just get an aristo swap. Electrical (in-dash) is all plug and play. To answer your question, yes, you have to figure out what interior wires goes in the 1j ecu.


Bippu: i got it all cleared, ty.

Yeah its just i gotta have a budget and i wanna use my Holset for a single setup don't even want deal with the duals breaking. But if i knew what kinda numbers me turbo would make na-t i would just go that but i really want to have the safety of having a turbo prepped motor. But for now the plan is to get a Aristo auto swap unless my tax refund is just s*** which im just covering my basis and 1 will go 1j
