Talking Installed my OS Giken Twin Disc Today..

I finally took out the W58 N/A Supra tranny.. & the original clutch that i put in the car over a year and a half ago..







No oil leaks! I love 1J's..

Its time to make some power..R154+OS Twin Disc to put the power to the ground.





I will post some more pictures this week as i get the tranny and put it up on the car to mock the tranny mounts.. Stay tuned..

If you do the work yourself you dont have to wonder if it is done correct .. You know it is!

**** all you hater shops out there!!
You know who you are!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey man nice job. r154s are said to handle up to 700-800hp at the wheels.... Duane with his 800+hp 7M still uses his stock r154 and he drives it to hell in the vids that he drives it in. i was conteplating on whether i should go 1jz swap...but i got a pretty great deal on a 88 vert with a T2 swap already done to it. so i guess i'm gonna try it out. but once anything major happens, its 1jz with my tax money next year.... o yea, i called u up cuba and talked to u about the swap for a bit. I'm the guy that had 7 mk3 supras and just bought 2 FC'swithin 2 weeks haha. keep us updated on wat else u do with the ride man.
