22R timing chain guides were on the way out, so I replaced them and new chain, freshened up the motor and sold it.
Picked up a LS400 front sump UCF11 1uz with full loom and manual conversion
Pulled out the motor to discover G52 box, not a W series...
Thought about using G series with the W/R series adapter

Bought a W57
Adapter and W57
Shot at 2012-09-08
A341 Bellhousing didn't want to work
The with the Adapter bolted up to the W57, the A341 bell fouls on the bottom bolt head.

And the 2 widest bolts into the adapter to the box, the heads foul the bell.
Worked it out
Howe Hydraulic Release bearing
Shim kit that came with it is questionable...
Had to have a 27mm spacer made up to sit this thing far enough forward.
Picked up power steering box for it, replaced centre rod, steering idler, and inner tie rods while I was there.
Looks like the Alt may foul the PS box, will mount it on other side....
W57 bolted up to stock G series mount with minimum modification, had to elongate rear rubber mount holes buy 3mm, tailshaft went straight in same spline.

Saw that website, if I wasn't colour blind and non retarded I could probably work it out. Maybe you could help me wire my T18 when you've done your hilux haha.
I also thought about putting a 2wd 1uz in a hilux to tow my T18 with but I wanted a 4x4 and diesel and ended up getting a turbo 80 series.

Yah, I would be happy to help out man, serious.....just got to get mine mobile so missus stops complaining 1st......
What is your 1uz out of?
If its 95 on non vvti soarer that site makes it very easy.
80 Series are a rig.
I originally started the swap for tow rig, but I think i'm actually going to register the panno....

I got mine out of a 91 celsior so no immobilisers to go through being an import engine I think. Mine only needs the most basic wiring, haha. Just a button to start it that's about it. Plus all the other wiring I could probably do myself.

91 Celsior would be very similar to what I'm doin.
Mine is 92 Celsior, but is Aus delivered, no traction control, no speed limiter and no immobilizer...
Does your ECU have 4 plugs, 26pin, 16pin, 22pin and another 26pin that looks the same as 1st one, but is upside down?
And do you have all 4, coz you need them!
I'm one short, but devised a method using a AE92 4agze 26pin with filed down locating lugs

ill have a look when I wake up.

Today was pretty uneventful.
I removed the upper manifold so I could delete more wires.
I did however get the alternator on and the p/s pump with out fouling the Rn85 p/s box....All good. Pretty happy with that!
Sounds good, I have no other accessories other than alt anyway haha.
"Not all commodore drivers are wankers, but all wankers drive commodores"
Has your 1UZ Alt got big round plug or oval?
T18 would have had external regulator.
Do you still have the wiring for that?
