will be interesting to see how you go with the box from the ls400
i was considering dropping the lexus v8 and autobox into the hilux....
Hi mat long time no see mate, hows things.....
the auto box has been fitted matt, just need a auto shift out of an IS now, im only useing it for now! it will be comeing out in 2 months, then the 5 Speed one i have will take its place.

Hi all, im still around
I am hoping to make JAE this year!
To try and get the car done abit faster i am useing the Auto/box that came out the LS400...by useing that i can save some time, i still have bits of the manifold's to get done, and when thats done i can then put the turbo on, and then i can make the downpipe from turbo to the 3" Exhaust that i have on my IS.
once thats done i can then fit the intercooler pipe/work (intercooler has been fitted) then the Custom Rad can be fix in place, along with all the hose's i have waiting to go on.
Then all the bits like water/hose's to the back of engine, and the front can be fitted, and the HKS Air/filter and then the 2 oil catch/cans can be fitted as well.....
the one job that i dont think will be done is the car needs to be repainted, as its a matt black right now! and i just dont have the cash to pay out for it to be done right now
i will keep you guys posted over the next 3 to 4 weeks
and i will post some Pic,s up later

Hi mat, no update!!
still doing the wireing, have to take it slow with the wireing as this is my first time doing this! but when its done that will be the hard bit out the way, the rest of the items i have can then be bloted to the car <ie> manifolds/Turbo/intercool & pipe work/oil cooler/ Wastgate....and away i go only have 1 or 2 items to get for this swap now, so once Xmas is out the way i can get on with it!
