Yo, Nostalgia Garage, do you guys only do JZX stuff? Nope, we're JZX specialists, but we also do other JDM cars as well! Fresh Cusco goodies to help stiffen up sweet wee K series Civic.

POV: You finally bought your dream car… but it’s automatic. 😂

Connor recently snapped up this very tidy, stock JZX100 Chaser, knowing straight away he wanted to convert it to manual. The only problem? He wasn’t quite sure what he needed besides the R154 itself.

That’s where we stepped in. 🤝

Now Connor has everything he needs to get stuck into the conversion, and he’ll be completing the M/T R154 swap himself. 🔧

Good on you, Connor — we love seeing people get stuck into their own builds! 👊

And how good does the Chaser look sitting on its new wheels? 🔥
I hear these are just the first of many mods to come… 👿

Stay tuned. 👀

Who said finishing touches have to be boring? 🏁

Wrapping up the interior of this manual swap with a TRD leather shift k**b. Clean, sporty, and the perfect stylish finish to tie it all together 🤌 🔥

A manual conversion is never just a gearbox swap... 👀

Gage had already tracked down a fresh R154, but like most people doing a conversion, he wasn't 100% sure what was actually needed to finish the job properly.

That's where we came in.

We put together the complete list of brand new genuine Toyota parts needed for the conversion, including all the little pieces that are so often forgotten. And yes... even a brand new R154 doesn't come "complete." There's still a surprising number of genuine parts required to get everything working exactly as Toyota intended.

As Gage is planning on turning things up later on, we also sorted him out with a Cusco ☆ Exedy pull-type clutch and lightweight flywheel combo. It's the perfect upgrade for a bit more power while retaining the factory pull-type setup and a really nice, street-friendly pedal feel.

One thing we're seeing more and more is genuine JZX parts quietly being discontinued by Toyota. Every year the list gets a little longer, making it harder to complete these conversions with brand new OEM components. If you've been thinking about a manual conversion or freshening up your JZX, now is the time to get in touch before expensive second-hand parts become the only option.

Can't wait to see this JZX100 all buttoned up and back on the road... maybe with a tough engine setup under the bonnet too. 😏
