    1j driveshaft difference

    Soapra I respect how many swaps you have done and your builds, but how can you argue with this evidence? The ds came with my front clip, I am fairly sure it is a jza70 ds. If it is not then how do you explain the fact that it is a half inch longer and still slides into a r154. Also Jeff stated...

    1j driveshaft difference

    I geuss if no one has had problems this far then it must not be to big of risk. you will have 2.5" of spline engagement rather then the full 3". Maybe if the 1jz were a torque monster it would cause more problems, personally I will just use the jz driveshaft because I have it. I realize this...

    1j driveshaft difference

    I measured a factory jza70 ds that came with my front clip this is where this whole thread started. It is a half inch longer. Yes you can use a 7m r154 ds on a 1jz r154 swap but it will not be fully engaged on the splines. I have pics I just keep forgetting to upload them. I bet you would...

    1j driveshaft difference

    I had three different ds's all from r154 cars. all spline slid into the r154 trans. And I have pics of the ds's at home. Im with soapra in agreeing that the 1jz bellhousing is shorter. The 1/2" in the ds is in the front half of the 2 pieces and the carrier bearing still mounts in the same...

    1j driveshaft difference

    May be old news but I couldnt find anything. I have head rumors of the jz bellhousing being a little shorter then 7m ones. Well today I had both jz and 7m driveshafts in the garage so I went ahead and measured them up and sure enough the jz one is 1/2" longer on the front half of the driveshaft...

    New 5th gear for the R154 - how about a taller overdrive?

    Woot woot!! Silver state mile here we come haha. jk. how much strength comparison loss are we talking here? I may be interested in one of course depending on price, could you also pm me a price on what you would be charging for full rebuild service, just trying to get a ballpark idea.

    Stripped down supra weight?

    Im glad to hear that other places are alot more restrictive then around here. All they do around here is stick a sniffer up the pipe for deq tags, and for inspections all they do is make sure the vin is correct in a few places. Or atleast thats my experience
