hey guys, seeing if anyone knows the pcd for a 1989 gz20 soarer, lookin at getting spacers for wheels. also, this thread on old scool soarers is so quiet. these cars are tough cars (i know hard to get parts) and so rare on the streets, need to get together and help eachother out. gaz

Yeah mate if the gearbox is from a GA70 then its a W58. Keep trying on Toymods though, you will find a fair bit of info and gear for sale for your z20 there!

Guys Hope aware that there are a few types of W58 boxes difference mainly being the shifter location itself I used a box out of a non turbo ma70 and the box fitted fine in my gz20 twin turbo manual conversion Drive shaft will not match so better to get a custom one made or use half of the older one and then get the extra it made up Manual flywheel is the hard part to get and gen 2 and gen 3 flywheels are different from memory
Clutch and brake pedal is direct fit
Slave and master cylinders will also fit
Basically find a supra non turbo wreck and transfer everything except tailshaft and flywheel
If doing a ijz manual conversion then I think the non turbo jza80 bellhousign can be used I think
And also ma70, mz20, gz20, ga70 share the same suspension components etc so they are interchangeable
btw dont use spacesr get the right wheels they arent that hard to find as its a common pcd and offset
