Its a 2wd but still a lot of custom work to make the gearbox fit. Being manual made it a bit easier to fit the Link ecu but someone on this forum has fitted a Link to their auto S2 C34 . A Link is a viable option for your M35s but there is no "plug in" available - you would have to buy the wire-in version and make all the connections one by one as this guy did.

Looks like this one:

250rwkw's out of a VQ30DET manual though!!!!

what are you pushing at all 4 wheels again with the auto and a VQ25DET Scott?

VQ30DET is an old motor, compared to the VQ25s and VQ35. it was the first of the VQ series engine AFAIK

looks like it drifts commodore style- in circles

my guess would be that toyota 5spd would be hurting, not the strongest gearbox, but a popular one.

Very nice look to it.

old supra gearbox??

[lilcrash]

I'm pretty sure it would take alot more then a vq30 to hurt a Toyota gearbox

[garetb16]

looks rad

W58 or more likely a R154, I dunno. Fitted to the old late 80's Supra's turbo and NA.

The R154 goes behind a 1JZ too i think. Don't think they have the best reputation, BUT, compared to a 2JZ Supra Getrag trans, anything might be considered fragile.

lilcrash, its not the power but how you use it... this one looks like its had a gentle life

[lilcrash]

I agree that he has done his best to kill every syncro ring in the box but at 250kw the power alone wont hurt it.

But "On my C34" it's easy .

It might be different if ANY 4WD version of ours came from the factory with a manual, completely ignoring the ECU side of things .

As for custom making a gearbox bellhousing, well; you up for it? Hmm.

Hmmm... got better things to spend $10k on thanks (if I had $10k to throw around lol)

Only AWD VQ Manual that I know of is the VQ40 Pathfinder which should bolt up (transmission tunnel & bodywork notwithstanding).... but I'm not so sure the gearing would be suitable.
