Let me try speaking English one more time - it shouldn't be so hard since it's the only language I speak :)
I want to take an auto Sc300 and swap to a 2jzgte + 6spMT. Now I would assume this is no problem, in fact, it has been done by Clint,as I posted above.
Powerhouse makes no mention of doing said swap, they simply state that the swap is not available on Automatics. Now, I guess they are talking primarily 2jzgte with the stock auto. I personally can't imagine doing anything but 2jzgte+6spMT.
I want to know what, if any, difference there is in putting in a 2jzgte+6spMT into a sc300 that is has an existing automatic transmission, and an existing 5spd.
The ONLY person I have seen clear admittance that their car was an auto before the swap is Clint.
Everyone else was either a 5spd, or they left the existing 5spd.
Pulling a trans and engine is no problem for me. Soldering a harness is no problem for me. I'm simply just looking for any difference that may be unknown to me about these specific cars :) I have access to dealer auctions where I can get a relatively inexpensive sc300, I can get a supra front clip for ~5000, and from my readings should be able to complete the swap with about 1000 or so in additional parts (notably a fresh supra harness if the one on the clip is butchered, as they usually are. And a custom exhaust.)
I can easily find an auto sc300 at auction - finding a 5spd there is 10 times as difficult as finding anywhere else, which is already a daunting task. If the entire 2jzgte+6spdMT swap is identical on either a manual or auto, I'm in business :) And I won't be spending 15,000 to have it done. The last thing I want is to get the car ripped down, only to find that things are different with the stock auto and stock manual (besides the actual trans itself :P )
