SLO-030 Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Wont make it any faster but it will make your ears and fuel bill alot better at high speeds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anastasios Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 kind of a big job to convert to manual as well, you need a pedal box and the rest of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tally Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 mate its nothing just by a wrecked out doner car thats 5speed.. and actually it does make your car quicker as the auto sucks up plenty of power. When I hopped into my ke70 after doing the conversion it felt like a whole new car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anastasios Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 good luck finding a wrecked 70 5spd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiro Protagonist Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Will also be quicker due to having 5 gears instead of 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronsae71 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) It will make a difference for statrters it will have 2 more gears and wont have to try and push the auto box as the older auto cars were really slugish Edited March 14, 2010 by aaronsae71 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidos Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 What about the box out of a T-18. Is that a T-50. Is that any better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snot35 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Plus auto's tend to suck more power out of the drive line. It'll be faster. It'll feel faster. If you can't find a 5 speed, even a 4 speed will be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 When I hopped into my ke70 after doing the conversion it felt like a whole new car! Absolutely! Its the best thing you can do for performance. We converted to a 4speed intially, then dropping a 5speed in later was just a half-hout job.

philbey Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 yeh it will make it go faster but it's kind of like saying sexy lingerie will make your mum look hotter. You put the effort in but it's really not that much of a change in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
