it is a 90 with the 3.0 and 5 speed manual. searched but cant find if it is a W or R series trans

 

R150F, if I'm not mistaken. Certainly an R150(x). Look on the driver's door jamb VIN plate. Should tell you everything.

 

W trans were behind the EFI 4 cyls, R's were behind the v6's and turbo 4's, G's were behind the carb'd 4's.

x2 the door jam vin plate will tell you what you have unless it's been changed.

 

Aaaand 2nd gen 4cyl 4Runners. I think '92-'95. Maybe '90-'91, not sure actually.
Its a G58, chain drive t-case.

 

Right I always forget about the ADD guys. which had the g58

 

it is a r150f according to the door. didnt even think to look there.

is this trans good enough to be put behind a stock 302 conversion to handle street/ beach duty? i would like to keep a manual transmission and keep the cost low if possible.

one more question. if i were to swap a 3.4 would this trans work with that engine?

i'm trying to pick my donor vehicle

 

Should, as long as you don't womp on it too much. What does the 302 put out? like high 200, low 300 hp? about the same tq?

R150F will bolt up to the 5vzfe. They use the R150 behind those engines. Theres a whole forum dedicated to the 3.4L swap. Search there.

 

thanks for the info. the 302 from the 96 is rated at 210/280.

i have been reading for 2 solid days now. with the 302 swap i either see projects that were not completed or trucks that already have a 302 and no build info. i hate going into something blind but there doesnt seem to be a ton of info floating around on the 302 swap.

the only thing i know for sure is i need a body lift. not sure if a suspension lift is needed with an IRS truck

 

IMO it will hold to a mild 302. but... if your looking cost wise think of the cost of the adapter as well. Advance adapters doesn't make one for the SBF's. Not sure who does. But to give you an idea a SBC to r150 adapter is $416. Domestic trans to toyota transfer case adapters are more then that as well. Sometimes it's just better to grab the whole drivetrain engine to t-case. But if you do that make sure it's a full time case not a part time case.

 

i called them on friday and they said they had a complete swap package for $1400??????

NWOR offers one according to their site

I knew someone made them. $1400 is a lot, but you also pay for the ease of swap as well. I don't know what all goes into it as well. Just giving options on what I was looking at when thinking of doing the SBF swap. I thought it would be much cheaper to go with the whole drivetrain but might not be as easy to fab what would be needed. So you elther pay for it with your wallet or blood and sweat, lol.

 

the R150s have been known to hand 350s... a 302 will be perfectly fine with the R150 as long as you're not ripping it and pushing 3-500 horse.
