listy Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Now there are plenty of auto to getrag conversion threads, but what would I need for W58 to getrag? In my mind, its: Getrag 6 speed box 6 speed bell housing? 6 speed clutch 6 speed flywheel Would I need different props/driveshaft? And obviously I would need to get a TT diff (if mine hasn't already (NA-TT) how would I check?) Anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtin90 Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 There is no cutting of tunnel and master cylinder and pedals are already there, so you'd just need to swap out the box with the clutch and flywheel along with the 6 speed prop and diff.

listy Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Would I need a different bellhousing? That's the main thing I'm unsure of really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-_-b Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Would I need a different bellhousing? That's the main thing I'm unsure of really. If it's the a Supra 6 speed Getrag gearbox you get then the bellhousing on it is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackin_n_bashin Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Think you'd need the slave cylinder too mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Would you need the 6speed ECU as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 This thread is interesting! The getrag doesn't have a detachable bellhousing like the W58 I think. There are also some people out there that just swapped the gearbox itself and kept the A01A/B diff by adapting the front propshaft of the 6 Speed to the rear propshaft of the W58. With the 4.08 gearing of the A01 diff the gears of the V160/161 get a little shorter, but I think not that short. The 6 Speed NAs had a 3.7 gearing, so the difference will be about 10mph top speed. Would be interested if someone did that custom propshaft and kept the A01 diff on here? Regards, Herbert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
