!!!! DRFTR!!!! Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 HI MATE SORRY ABOUT THE UNFINISHED ANSWERS I POSTED I AM NEW TO THIS AND STILL LEARNING anyway i basically removed a 5 speed box from a ke70 corolla which had the 4kc engine in it and as far as i remember it all bolted up using the 4 speed crossmember and the 4 speed tail shaft and for memory on the highway when in 4th gear and changing to 5th it was approximatly a 200 rpm drop and i know for a fact that both 4 and 5 speed gear boxes have identical 1st t0 4th gear ratios . i hope this helps.

B.L.Z.BUB Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 If its a ke30/55 k50 the gear stick will be further forward. If its a ke70 one, its just a straight forward swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
