Hey trav
Thats the way mate, arm yaself with information.
sounds like toranaZ knows you persionally, ask him heaps , he is a guru on torry's
its pretty straight forward thing to do, there is heaps of threads about this on all different types of engine changes.
as a good start what engine are you changing and what is your current driveline?
ild reccomend going for a 5 speed, cheap and will be worth it, depending on your cars orrigionality, and its purpose.

Evan.

I have listed all the stuff you need to change Trimatic (M40) to Aussie four speed (M20) or Celica five speed. :spoton:

Hi Trav

I was in the same position u were couple of years back. i had 202 with the auto in my UC Hatch and was craving a manual.

I stayed with the 202 but fitted up a VK 5speed to it, fit b-e-a-utiful but had to get tailshaft shortened but other than that it was straight forward.

havent had a problem with it since so hope that helps with choosin ure runnin gear

Cheers

I have a VK 5 speed for sale, plus the manual clutch and brake pedals for a UC Torana.
Where are you from.
