Everybody looking at the mirrors and not the seats. Jeff

Furious George!! What have they done to you? Jeff

Some good news here is that the B48 and B58 are modular. Any manual transmission and flywheel designed for the 20i will fit a 40i. (Strength issues aside). Not that it matters as much as there already exists components for the B58 for a manual from other cars like the M240i. The real nicety...

For what it's worth, new Lexus models also have the turn signal return to its original position after operation just like BMW does. The main difference between the two implementations is that to cancel the signal you push it lightly in the opposite direction instead of the same direction...

232hp. FWIW. Jeff

JZA70/JZX81/JZX90 1JZ-GTE's have the hydro fan. JZZ30/JZX100/JZX110 1JZ-GTE's don't have the hydro fan. JZS147 2JZ-GTE's have the hydro fan. JZA80/JZS161 2JZ-GTE's don't have the hydro fan. Water pumps without hydro fan had plastic impellers until April 1995, with the hydro fan I think they...

The 2JZ originally used a plastic impeller on the water pump. It was changed to metal a few years later. Jeff

The more I look at production dates and the like, the more I think this catalog applies more to the early production prototypes running around in various states with the new camo and will be updated as the final production versions start on the assembly line. Jeff

Mirrors are the same as the X2... Jeff

The one thing when looking at catalogs is that often they are released as information is available near the time production is starting. Some information may not be present yet, and I've also seen things change. It's usually things like a part is only available as an assembly, or they haven't...

True, the cylinder head is the same though. Jeff

I assume he meant the Zx6 transmission (TL70), which is based on the Toyota J160/Aisin AZ6, but just called it the J160. Jeff

Lexus has never had a 1.8t or a model called the IS250t. I assume you mean the 2.0L Turbo 8AR-FTS in the IS200t/IS300 RWD. Getting details like that wrong in an argument about details doesn't bode well. Jeff

It doesn't. Neither will the Supra. Jeff

North American and Japanese cars won't have the Toyota nameplate. The other guys can pop that bad boy off. Jeff

The transmission, bellhousing, etc. are almost always unaffected by driver position. The differences will be the pedals, master cylinder, lines to the transmission, and the interior panels. Sometimes the shifter is different as well (angle). But none of that actually matters, the decision will...

Depends on your perspective and the design intent. Jeff

Hatchback life. Jeff

Canada/US typically.

So is the power the same as a mid-90's Corvette or does the engine's power need a transmission with exotic materials? It can't be both. The V160 wasn't made of unobtanium. Jeff
