I'm just chillin here at daft innovations typing this from his computer. I learned from Rich that Aisin makes a new and improved W58 for the Pontiac Solistice. So, if you find a wrecked 5spd Solistice, its another box of Cressida parts... sorta.. It's a hybrid W58 and R154???

I think there's a thread about this on supramania, but really, it'd probably be cheaper and easier to rebuild an a70 box. Not that I have any facts to back that up.

at a quick glance, im pretty sure the bellhousing is different for the solctice b(?) motors then our m or j motors, so sadly our bellhousings arent suddenly made out of skrilla.

I wounder what kinda power these can put down...

and a quick look around and it looks like these can be picked up for around $500-$800 not to shabby for a brand new unit...

The gear ratios are definitely different, that box also doesn't have a giant steel bearing retainer plate in the middle like the R154 making it a bit less beefy. IIRC the input shaft diameter and splines are different too so you'd need a custom clutch. It does have better synchros, but overall would change the feel of the car. I've seen a few on ebay for 500 and 600 dollars with 5000 miles on them. You might be able to pick one up, pull apart an R154 and that and put together a hybrid with R154 input shaft and gears but the newer synchros, all in an R154 case. Probably not worth the cost or headache though.

Sorry to rain on your parade. Didn't know that it came in the Solstice though.

I always heard they were rated @ 260lb/ft. No really info though. Mark has been talking about these things for while, but he wants to watch someone else blow one up/try it first.

AR5
AX15
NV3550
R154
R156

all similar
