okay so i tried to research but i keep getting all sorts of answer. my first and main concern is.

1. are the drive shaft yoke different? meaning i cant take the w58 driveshaft and stick it in the r154 correct?

2. speedo cable the same?

3. i have w58 mated to 1jz, i dont need a new flywheel going with r154 do i? i would assume not because it should have the 2j/1j flywheel on there already. i dont know because i didnt do the swap.

4. are the slave cylinder fluid line threads the same?

thanks!

W58 sucks

R154 good

All you need to know. :biglaugh:

that depends entirely on what you're doing with the car. i <3 my w58, thought at my power levels (soon to be elevated by another 120rwhp) i'm not sure how much longer it'll last.
