TRD Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Hi. I am after a manual starlet gt turbo to swap against my automatic one. I am willing to add cash on top for the right way. I have an import mk2. In rare green. Link to post Share on other sites
jimmymac101 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Why don't you just buy the stuff and convert yours mate ? There's a few comprehensive lists around of what your need James Link to post Share on other sites
TRD Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Not very cost effective and I won't have time to convert it. It's a lot of parts to get matey. Gearbox, pedals , master clutch cylinder , flywheel , clutch , wiring loom,dials , ecu , interior trims , throttle bottle with sensor and also most other related sensors are different on an Auto, driveshafts,torque covered etc.... Then time to do it yourself and put it all together that I don't have. A garage would charge a million lol. Also I do believe that an original manual will have much less issues than a converted one Link to post Share on other sites

TRD Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the heads up lads. Last time I looked for a used gearbox i was asked 200. Like you said it's who you know. We'll I still will be looking for an original manual. Or if one comes cheap again like the one which recently went for 1200 then I will be keeping my auto as spares Missed out lately on a clean shell with gearbox as well for 650 , car was in Scotland though. Anyway will keep looking. Edited April 18, 2015 by TRD Link to post Share on other sites
