ok guys, here is the secret to my T56 swap. I have had a custom main shaft made. This is the main shaft of the T56 (Viper transmission) but with the output splines of the Skyline R32/R33 (5 speed) transfer case. Whole operation took almost a year and I am already fitting the engine with the...

yup, perfect. But it was quite some work to get it working perfectly and I doubt it's possible in a supra in the way I did it (using all the original ecu's from the MR2 and including the steering sensor from the MR2) If I had to do it again I might go a different route.

I built it in a Celica with Turbo + Supercharger. Had to make some room so used the electric power steering from the mr2

would it be possible to put the electric clutch on the pulley? That would be awesome!

I got the clutch from Cowboy Bepop the other day. It's the quartermaster button type clutch. To cut the story short: I'm not impressed. This unit is sold to me for like 2200 USD. If you compare it to a twin plate carbon carbon by RPS it doesn't even look half as good as an RPS. And it's...

Finishing the GTR is not that difficult I think. Doing a Supra AWD is, you might use the Mark 2 (jzx90 frame) as a donor cause it's JZ based and 4WD (1jz-ge I think). A supra is a RWD car, you should not convert that IMHO. A Skyline is a nice 4WD car, a Supra is a nice RWD.

What setup do you mean? I have not built the block yet and most likely I will first go with a stock block like Justen is doing.

This should fit in the car:

Made a mock-up sump adapter, if the dimensions are fine I will have it lasercut from steel.

That is the stock skyline pan, I will make an adapter plate between the block and the pan as well

Finished my mold

first version of the gearbox adapter fits directly. Tomorrow we're gonna try maybe in the car and also start the sump adaption.

yupz UZ sump wrong I don't need big sump mods the engine is going into a skyline after all

That's the whole point. If I'm not doing AWD I would put it in a Supra, way better car than a Nissan
