Up for sale is my custom, 5 SPEED LS400. The LS400 never came in 5 speed. It was only offered as an automatic luxury sedan. The 5 speed swap was done by a shop called Daft Innovations in Modesto,Ca. It utilizes a w58 transmission from a 92 Supra and a custom adaptor plate and custom tranny mounts. To recreate this swap would cost about $2700. The previous owner had the swap done a few years ago and he told me that it was the first one ever done. The engine is very healthy, 1uz are pretty much indestructible and can go for 400xxx+ miles with proper maintanence (with the previous owner has done). I got this car in a trade and it's fun as hell to drive but I am looking for something else.

Here is a list of what is used for the M/T swap:

w58 transmission
3sgte flywheel modified
arp 4age flywheel bolts
3sgte mr2 pressure plate/supra disc
howe racing slave cylinder or quartermaster
toyota throw out bearing inplace of the howe/quartermaster
pilot bearing 7mge
1uzfe to w58 steel/aluminum adapter/slave spacer
drive shaft single piece 3 inch diameter beefiness
drive shaft adapter to dif "eliminate the rubber bushings"
transmission crossmember "custom" energy suspension/toyota hybrid bushing "designed by Daft"
in car under dash 3/4 bore master cylinder/clutch pedal setup/with external reservoir/braided feed lines
remote bleeder for the slave in transmission
w58 extension to center the w58 shifter in the factory ls400 shifter hole "over 7 inches back from mk3 w58"

Thanks. Previous owner said it was the first, but I have no proof about it. Was it the video of the LS doing donuts?

The previous owner can vouch for all the work and maintenance done on the car.

Long shot being that this thread is old, but has this been sold?
