[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

hay guys

im thinking about getting an 1s300 lexus as a run around but they are all auto and i prefer manual. what would need to be done to convert it to manual

obviously i would need

a gearbox

clutch

clutch master cylinder

pedal box assembly etc

but what gearbox would i use

would i need to modify the tunnel

would i need to modify the tailshaft

i was told that it is a na supra motor in them so could i just use a supra gearbox

thanks

R154 gearbox gets used for the 1s300 when the 2jz motor goes in pretty sure it is compatibile onto the standard engines as well, failing that use the 1s200 gearbox or buy the 1s200 will be a little cheaper and better on fuel
