[artmo]

[trydrew]

Edit: ignore me lol... I thought it was a 5spd...

Anyway, I doubt it is.

 

[artmo]

there site says it is.

 

[trydrew]

I mean I doubt its a Getrag type tranny.

I don't see that anywhere on the lexus site

link?

I can check at work tomorrow, but I kind of doubt it is a V160.

Where does it say anything about being a getrag V160?

 

[RazoE]

Dont see why, the IS250 is a completely different engine.

 

[OneJoeZee]

The R34 GTR uses the V160.

 

[RazoE]

then it seems like the only major obstacle would be the bell housing...

and gearing..

You dont want the 250's tranny anyway...

Probably the much weaker J160 box, same as the old IS200 used

 

[Jeff Lange]

It is an "RA62" whatever that is.
