Up for sale is my custom, 5 SPEED LS400. The LS400 never came in 5 speed. It was only offered as an automatic luxury sedan. The 5 speed swap was done by a shop called Daft Innovations in Modesto,Ca. It utilizes a w58 transmission from a 92 Supra and a custom adaptor plate and custom tranny mounts. To recreate this swap would cost about $2700. The previous owner had the swap done a few years ago and he told me that it was the first one ever done. The engine is very healthy, 1uz are pretty much indestructible and can go for 400xxx+ miles with proper maintanence (with the previous owner has done). I got this car in a trade and it's fun as hell to drive but I am looking for something else.

w58 transmission
