Realizing that putting together a 13B
turbo transmission setup maybe a bit more money than I have to spare, I decided to go the dubya route. Recently acquired a
bellhousing to install the stronger W5X transmission into tired but still battle worthy barney.
I'm not sure who actually makes this piece, since they're are a few people who make these. But I think this one is made in the
Philippines.
Also got a transmission from a non turbo MK 3
Toyota Supra, thanks neighbor i hope it's not a broken one.
Did some cleaning, since it had lots a dirt caked on to it.
Stripped drain bolt, luckily a
hammer and chisel made short work of this stubbor bugger. A spare T50 drain bolt fits nicely. It's good to have a spare laying around.
It's not a 100% complete yet just need to get some custom stuff made, transmission x member and a clutch disc. And get some parts at the ol' junkyard, transmission shifter and throw out bearing carrier. Then I can run a more agressive clutch and actually run more boost without worry.
