And here is the key to the whole swap, the adapter kit its from Acme Adapters, VW TDI to Toyota V6 transmission. Its a nice kit, adapter plate, custom made flywheel, pilot bushing, all bolts, starter spacer and lower cover.


Here is the oil pan, I got one made out of steel, because I will have to modify it to clear the front differential housing
Here is the clutch, its a clutchnet stage 1 rated @ 255 lb. ft. of torque, the throw out bearing is NACHI, pressure plate bolts are ARP

Here are the vehicle speed sensors. one is universal and fits inline the speedo cable, and one is made for the Japanese threads on the end of the cable. I'm probably going to use the threaded one, but I bought both because I had to order them from the UK.
