I got the video of this thing coming together. Pretty cool for a budget swap if you ask me. Haters can hate, but in the end, you sir have the finished product if in fact this is the first M/T LS400 and the refinements can be made later on. So far, nobody has posted links or videos to another LS400 with a M/T now, have they? I'm thinking about doing a UCF20 1996 LS400 with a 5spd myself and seeing your car come together in person is what inspired me.
@alna1287 .....on the internet. if your not capable of doing the research to see what other people have done, your most likely not capable of doing the swap yourself. There is not alot of info about this stuff anyways. This car is the first one i have seen finished.... mine isnt finished yet. Its alot of work and an expensive project.
@nickloveskarolyn Thanks for contributing nothing helpful to the conversation. If you're not a hater how do you account for the fact that you've just taken precious time out of your life to question a complete stranger's wrenching ability and further implied through suggesting said stranger is incapable of using the internet for research that they aren't very intelligent? That kind of thing also might carry more weight once you learn your possesive adjectives from your contractions. PS kisses
"best ls400 vid i have found yet!! i have a 92 i am doing a 5 spd swap and a sc300 center console so its all oem and clean and i can have the e- brake on the center console and not a foot brake. look me up... domingo salvatorie from florida on face book"
nice drift for a boat... the color is gross and the rims look horrible on that car. mine is beautiful, domingo salvatorie on facebook... look me up and see for yourself. and mine is going to have an e brake on the center console so i can acctually initiate a drift besides clutch kicking it with a shitty ass welded diff. if your going to do a lexus spend some damn money for a lsd. you might as well have just bought a 240 if your going to be cheap.
Okay, I'm a big Skyline/Silvia/RX-7 guy, but I gotta say, that's sick. Props. :) I've never heard if any other 5-speed LS400s either - was the swap easy?
