February 26, 200620 yr Author comment_104456 By the look of the altezza engine and gearbox with back shift position the gear lever will be infront of the rear seat :jamie: What other shifter will fit this gear to bring the shift forward. :D Report

February 27, 200620 yr Author comment_104719 The removal of the reliable old engine In goes the the other engine The cross member with the support cut out Report
February 27, 200620 yr Author comment_104720 The gearshift position Some more cutting necessary Report
February 27, 200620 yr comment_104722 looks familiar, done that conversion to my TA12 carina. Keep up good work, it will be great, I know :jamie: had no problems with gearstick Edited February 27, 200620 yr by -A1- Report
February 28, 200620 yr Author comment_104746 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 Report
February 28, 200620 yr comment_104802 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. hope you understood my weak "english" explanation. Report
February 28, 200620 yr Author comment_104909 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 :) Report
February 28, 200620 yr comment_104910 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. 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. Report
