1UZFE Manual Gerabox options
Hi All,
Looking for manual gearbox options for a Lexus 1UZFE engine.
Something cost effective would be good?
Any help would be great.
Jay.

Hi Jay. Google is your friend. There are tons of threads on tons of websites covering this conversion.
"Cost effective" is going to be the stumbling block.
Cheapest could be a modded IS200 six speed. I have used this on my 3SGE engined car. I paid £20 for one box and £1.20 for a spare.
There are conversions using diesel BMW boxes, 350Z boxes, various Toyota boxes, you name it.
Most use an adapter plate but some do a "cut and shut" operation with the 1UZFE bellhousing and gearbox of choice.
Just Google it.

Aye, AFAIK there are no manual gearboxes which marry straight to the engine, all require an adapter plate.
Also I don't think there is a flywheel which bolts straight to the 1uz-fe crankshaft, so a new or modified one is required. Clutch must match
gearbox and flywheel, obviously.
They are bloody good engines but doing a manual conversion is unlikely to be cheap, unfortunately.
If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.

Thanks guys.
Done a bit of research and the BMW route looks good as a company near me seem to have it sussed.
Not overly cheap ( £1000 ish ) but for such a good cheap awesome engine still seem like good value.
Jay.

Did a bit more research and going down the BMW route.
Very good boxes for no money.

Cheers.

v6 Camry clutch I've fitted has coped pretty well with mine so far especially as it's twin turbo with 370 lb ft

Thanks again.
Going down the BMW route from Drift Moto as they are near to me and the stuff looks good.
Seems like a no brainer way of gettting quad cam 280 + BHP and a manual box.
Jay.
