HZJ79 R151 to H55F conversion

Hi Guys,

I have a turboed 1HZ in my 2004 HZJ79, the R151 transmission needs a rebuild and instead of doing that I want to just put a good old H55F in it.

Has anyone here done the conversion? Any problems to deal with?

I figure I will need the H55F, bellhousing, clutch, but not sure if the flywheel is the same. Anyone have any suggestions?

I am pretty sure I will need to relocate the crossmember and cut some new holes for the shifter levers.

Help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Louis
