Adapter plate or bellhousing Lexus V8 to Renault UN1

[Spin]

Hi
Does anyone know if there is either an adapter plate or a bellhousing that will enable the Lexus V8 to be mated to the Renault UN1 transaxle? If so where are they available from?

Dave Short with Countess Mouldings supplies a kit to mate the 1UZ and the Renault UN1. The kit itself is a combination of Nissan and Renault parts, with a custom flywheel. Price of the kit is around $6000 NZ, including the UN1 itself and a Nissan/Renault clutch setup. It does not include fitting the Lexus ring gear onto the flywheel.

I was considering a similar project with a custom Lotus Europa earlier this year. Here's Dave's email if you wish to contact him: [email protected]

Thanks for that John. I will contact them. The conversion is for a Lotus Esprit S3.

Spin,

Have a search as I think there has been some discussion on the Esprit and 1UZ about 12-18 months ago.
