Just wondering if an RingR or similar product exists for the M series engines? I gather in time the stock 1.3 box wont be enough for the M16 and M18a engines. The stock boxes are exxy enough now second hand. |

and like I did too  - Now got an M18a with M16a non vvt head and dont want a weak box exxy boxthat is no where near as strong as a vitara or like my modded trimatic in my old sierra with g16b. Just surprised a kit or adaptor is not available considering the boxes are not as strong as a vitara and not as available hence their high prices. Toyota boxes are getting thin as well bar the chinese copies but the S-10 Chevy has a WC t5 short super strong and only 35kg (same dimensions and weight as W series toyota) All the hot rod peeps use them and avail for 200usd or just change rear to suit local WC t5 borgys http://www.vanpeltsales.com/VPPSweb/VPPS-T5prices.htm http://i818.photobucket.com/albums/zz10 ... 0_0003.jpg? |

No adaptors unfortunately. I do agree with you about them being weak. They certainly were not designed for the M18! |

Hi datso, why are you surprised that there is no kit to mate an M18 Suzuki engine to a W series Toyota gearbox, it is not as of it is a common conversion. |
