Friend of mine is fitting a 3S-GE engine in a Mk2 Cortina, just in conversation I mentioned I had a Lexus iS 200 6 speed in the Garage, will it bolt up to the 3S-GE???

depends on what Lexus, if ít's one from a RS200, with the 2 liter 4 cillinder engine, it will, otherwise it won't  If it's the normal UK spec Lexus, it won't fit, but then i could be interested in it!  |

Pretty sure it will bolt up ok, the six speed came with the 1G-FE siz pot engine & the Beams unit so sure a quick google will reveal all.

i think they both use different bellhousings, because otherwise it would be an easy swap for a RWD 3S, and somebody should have found out allready.
All i know is that the RWD gearbox of a 1S Carina SA60 and the box of a RWD Carina/Corolla Diesel (1/2C engine) will fit. And then the earlier mentioned BEAMS 3S-GE box from the RS200.

The gearbox is a J160 (Lexus designation).
Made by Aisin Industries, under their name AZ6.
It can also be found in the MX5, RX8, S2000 and S15.
Limits I've seen quoted are about 200ft/lbs of torque in a 1300Kg+ car.
Often people confuse it with the V160 made by Getrag, found in the Supra and M5.
V160 is very strong (standard in some 8 second Supras)
*I've never used one, just snippets I've found hanging around Toyota forums for to long - so as with any forum info, some of it may or may not be true!
