3rd Generation Tony the Tiger's 1MZ-FE 5-spd conversion thread

Before I say anything, I would really like to thank Adam aka ASG14 for all his help... I would be nowhere if it wasn't for him, helping me locating just about every part. It took me a year to collect all these parts, and thanks to him, I got everything I need


Here are some pics of the progress:


A541E transmission removed!



Lots of parts everywhere:
