Thanks mate, yea I guess it is pretty in depth, it started as a cheap conversion and has kinda snowballed from there.. using a rusty gem didnt help! hahaha

Hay boys, just thought Id jam up a bit of an update.
Have finally, after god knows how long 90% finished my gearbox. I cant even remember when I started it it was that long ago! (ps, big ups to Tom for sussing my parts, most appreciated dude!)
Anyways, all I have to do know is get some more silver paint matched up, paint the box and finish assembly, jam on my flywheel and clutch, blow off the cobwebs and dust and clear out the boat and crap outta the shed and put the motor and box in. Then consume a box of corone to celebrate!!
From there on I will be saving coin to buy all the bits I still need to get the motor going, Im not worried about anything else but getting to the point where I can start it, out of a 4L petrol tin if I have to... hahah

I havent done it yet, butthe sump will have to be modified, easier to make a custom one than messing around with a factory rx one. I have some pics of a sump a guy in oz made if you need them. I'll have to take some more pics of my mounts etc for ya. Is your car a sedan or wagon?? |
