FWIW at this point, I did manage to track down the information for the V160 input shaft now Toyota part number 33311-0W040. Lists for nearly the same price($250). I’m going to see if I can locate one a little cheaper. I might buy it anyway for R&D here for future endeavors with this car. ---

My input shaft used was $850. Exactly. When Cossey asked what I thought the price “could be” I told him that the STi 6 speed IS was around $500, so I suspected $750 or so myself ---

and he’s Jamacian which makes him twice as cool. I was talking to Sean about Cossey’s car and he was very familiar w/ that exact car. He was also saying he tunes a ton of Skylines and actually flies overseas to tune them for people about 10 times a year. Pretty crazy. ---
