 in view of my upcoming conversion towards the Toyota Supra W58 5sp (my JH has the 4sp) i was wondering if anyone out there has already gone through this conversion and used the JHPS/Conversion Components conversion kit.

I would love to see pictures and learn about what needs to be done other than modifying the propshaft which in itself is quite tricky enough.

i have a question regarding the conversion kit's tranny mount crossmember: does it mount to the 4sp original tranny mount bolts or does one need to drill new holes? Does it need spacers (i hope not, cause without would be a much better fit)

i saw pictures of Dan's 5sp toyota conversion on http://www.jhppg.com and saw he needed spacers for the tranny mount crossmember. I can't imagine conversion components built and designed the crossmember to use spacers otherwise they would have designed it differently. Can anyone tell if and/or what is wrong there?

i'm still to order the conversion kit but would like to know before hand the work involved.

thanks, Erik, JH 15175 "The Shark", Netherlands
