I'm after a 5 speed for the UC (red 6) and will be looking at a Celica 5 speed on Monday.
There is no cross member etc, just the box.... at this stage, I don't even know if there's a clutch etc!
Can anyone advise on what to look for, what I'll need to complete the conversion.
What should I avoid etc.
Is there anyone in the Northern Subs Melb I can chat to to learn more about Manuals?

Can anyone here point me in the direction of a workshop that recoes Gboxes who may do a conversion for me.... same day?
Thanks guys, I know I'll get the good oil here.
Cheers.

Hey Nathan, thanks for that.
Yeah, a Supra is definately the way to go....I still spew I got rid of one in the old UC I had...(15 yrs ago now!)

Isn't it always the way?

i think celica steel case and holden 6 use the same yoke.

carefull selection of bell housing if purchasing parts seperatly as there are different setups for the clutch fork and mechanisems, ie hydrolic, cable, dog trap (rat trap) etc. do your homework which setup you need and works best.
then of course you need the folk and throw out bearing and carrier that suits the bell housing as these parts are only suited to each bell housing.

some of the older conversion bell housings, i think hatfield are cast for multi setup.
