Auto To Manual Conversion

[AJC]

Hi There,

I have a Ke10 with a 4K motor in it. Currently it is running the toyoglide 2 speed auto box. :wink:

I am going to do the manual conversion however I wanted to double check that I had all the parts that I need. Also any hits/tricks that you can let me know about would be appreciated.

 

I currently have a 4 speed box (K40).

 

Part I believe I need:

KE1* pedal assembly

KE1* clutch cable

flywheel off a 4 speed box - do the 4 and 5 speed use the same?

Tail shaft - I assume that I need a KE1* 4 speed tail shaft or can I get one out of a ke2* series?

Some mates + Beer and a weekend of friggin about under the car.

 

I believe that I need to cut back the transmission tunnel as the gear leaver position is further set back than the auto. Does anyone know by how much? or is it a matter of try and see?

Is there any modification required for the cross memeber that the gearbox sits on? or is it easier to try to source a cross member from a manual ke1* model?

 

I was thinking initially I will not swap out the diff centre.

 

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

hey there mate,

 

okey doke,

-pedal assembly, yes

-clutch cable, yes

-just a manual flywheel, they are both the same between 4 & 5 speeds

-just use the 2 speed toyoglide tailshaft, as it will fit the manual box( 2 speed auto and 4 speed boxes are both the same length and output shaft spline)

-gearbox crossmember and mount are both the same between auto and manual

- and last of all its just a matter of try and see when it comes to the shifter hole

 

hope this helps mate!

 

cheers, phatke30!

Looks like I am set for all the parts then. I was unsure about the tailshaft but that is tops news....
