james@cjperformance Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 yeah gearbox bolts will do it mate.not sure on thread size etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 damm, ive seen some on ebay, but that means i cant make a start until they get here :/any one else know the size so i can just go out and buy some while i wait for the gearbox 1s to come? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
james@cjperformance Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 take one of your gearbox bolts out and go and match it up in hardware store.get them a little longer as some stands the gear box bolts are not long enough, you can still drive you car with one missing too.

ryan lang Posted August 30, 2010 Author Share Posted August 30, 2010 i havent got any, hence why i need to buy them off ebay dude and dont let my avatar fool you its a sportif, but ive got a 4efte engine and gearbox from 2 separate people ready to go in once ive rebuilt the engine lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
james@cjperformance Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 pretty sure 4efe gear box bolts are the same as 4efte one.pull one out of your car and see if they fit in the block on your 4efte, i think they will then you are onto a winner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
