Default 5 speed conversion completed!

Yep, bout bloody time. :hihi: Bolted the transmission up today and did all those other fiddly bits. Huge thanks to Sundeep and Kenaz, with out ya's i'd still be stuck with a broken 3 speed. Everything pretty much went to plan, except for the dodgey clutch bolt thingy that I got with the conversion (thanks Jack) a trip to just Falcons fixed that $15 later.

We took it for a quick spin around the block and all was good, then up to pik a part.. :P What a transformation it has made to the car. Soo much more responsive and just soo much more fun to drive. The t5 deffinately needs an oil change and picked up a new tailshaft with good uni's, once i do that it should be sweet, need a new diff too, and some bushes and a heap of other shit ;). Also need to adjust the clutch cable a bit more. This is about the only pic I bothered to take.


In conclusion i'm pretty damn happy with it, although the gearbox whines a bit in second, it's pretty tight. Lined up a Gen 4 6.0 Monaro, then stalled it :king:. The car loves it. Oh and have no reverse lights, but i'm sure that's a simple fix.

Thanks again Sunny and Ash. _2:
