-A1- Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 (edited) looks familiar, done that conversion to my TA12 carina. Keep up good work, it will be great, I know :jamie: Â had no problems with gearstick Edited February 27, 2006 by -A1- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canon Posted February 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 A1 thats a excelent looking engine bay. :jamie: Ive been to your site and seen your conversion brakes diff makes things easier for me :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-A1- Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 btw, you can easily move that gearstick approx 2" more front. Just swing that part vertically where gearstick lower ball stands. Which is held there with one 8mm bolt and on "stud", which you can hammer out. And that gearstick "housing" can be moved to the other holes that 2" more front. Â hope you understood my weak "english" explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canon Posted February 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 A1 I might understand when I see the gearbox which is at the garage, I really need to forward the gearshift to avoid cutting the structural beam which the Ke70 desperately needs especially with more bhp. And another problem is the swaybar (stabiliser) the oil sump is in way of the swaybar :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-A1- Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 I have that same sway bar problem in my car also. I have found a company which will make one just like I want to. otherwise like original shape, but "little" loop in the middle, which goes between sump and axle. Â You figure that gear thing when you see the box. No internal things, just outside parts and those are ment to be both ways, mayby some other model have it otherwise.
