R154 tranny indentification (pic)

[ronnie4]

I'm trying to buy a R154 with a 1J bell housing off of craigslist, somewhat locally. From the pics it looks like that is what it is. Can someone confirm this? Just wanted to get a second opinion before I drive a few hundred miles to pick it up. Thanks in advance

they're very close to each other.. hard to tell even in person let alone pics..

only think i see that say it MIGHT be is the 8 bolts on the flywheel

Yeah that is definately a puls, the bell housing looks like it is correct to to me as well (starter location, general shape, etc). Gotta love Toyota for not marking their transmissions.

only way i could tell is the length between the bottom starter bolt and the bellhousing bolt.. iirc the 1jz is shorter then the 7ms.. dont remember teh distances. I can check when i get hom though

Thanks,

No rush, I probably won't check it out (in person) until this weekend.

the second picture defintiley looks like it. The top two bolt spacing and ofcourse the flywheel bolts count. I tried to blow it up a bit but not much.

definately a r154. the bellhousing should fit a 1j or a 2j so all you need to do is figure out if its the right flywheel or pick up a 7m one.

Where in Colorado are you from?


$650 is a good deal for tranny, flywheel, and clutch right?

i paid 250 for my trans but i bought the bellhousing for 260ish and flywheel for 260ish and my clutch was 80$ off ebay

its not bad if its a 1jz one imo

Actually its a great deal. Bell housing alone can run you 350 - 400

Sorry to revive an old thread, does anyone know how long the R154 is? I'm hoping it will fit in the trunk of my 6.

 

[tissimo]

unless you have a small trunk it will fit. They're not too long maybe 4ft.

Thanks, worst case is I can just take off the bell housing then.
