yokomo Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 (edited) i used an 89 supra non turbo W58, steel center. and as for the website listed above, he will take care of you. My car was one of the test cars for that setup and the owner of the company is a friend i see weekly. he has everything on the shelf ready to ship. When you get a trans, get the front driveshaft off the supra aswell, you will need the yoke and about 6"s of the shaft, then have your starquest driveline mated to it via busing. i think it was 34" overall but its all about where you set your engine, i had mine a bit forward to keep the firewall in tact.

pancake88 Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 W58 or r154 would work for me Braden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_S Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Try and pick up an R154, that way you can build power and not worry about it. More expensive and bigger but you won't break it. I don't know how much power you will end up with but if it's over 400 try and get the R154, guys are breaking the 58's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Dont Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Good luck making over 400hp with a 1uz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance_S Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I don't know what they make, if you are under 400 the W58 is cheap and should hold up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancake88 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 I plain on over 400 I have been doing some hunting and it's pretty easy on this motor with the right setup and it will be super charged I'm looking good power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuze Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) The Lexus motor is such a nice choice. So smooth. The other day I was looking at a 4.4L BMW V8 in a wrecked X5 with saliva dripping off my mouth.... Pushrod motor with a really low height.
