Absolutely no wrestling with gear locations, especially when sticking the boot in and changing gears quickly.Summary: With all the mods Ive done, I wish I had done this one first. Its a different car to drive, highly recommend. Once again, awsome unit Mal.CheersJeff←I like. The bane of my manual shifting is getting into 2nd really quickly (unless I wrench hard to make sure).Mal, can you recommend someone in the Canberra/Sydney area for fitting (or should I just go to Ford)? I'm in Canberra until late Nov, then I'll be living in Adelaide from then on.←Also Mal could you shed some light on whats involved in fitting one of these units for those of us interested in having a crack ourselves.ThanksChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and 4L of transmax Z.... I have done all this on mine .... and it feels bulletproof..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The box does not have to be removed. Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
