my question is can a 5sp solara tranny be mate with a 1jz or 2jz motor, so that it can be put into a mid engine design layout. are there other trannies that can be use for this purpose. thanks

I used an Audi 01e six speed box mated to a 2jz-gte. Costs ran +/- $1500 to mate the two. That included custom flywheel, custom adapter plate, custom clutch (3 pack), custom release bearing housing. I will be picking it up on Monday from the Engineering shop.

Car is based on Lambo Murcie but with my own tweaks. Side intakes added Celica headlights, Still have to pull the mold for the body and then do the body.
