HI PSI Member 1,586 Member For: 18y 7m 15d Gender: Male Location: Central Queensland Posted 25/03/08 10:56 AM Share Posted 25/03/08 10:56 AM I have been offered a 5 speed manual box out of a twin turbo Supra with all accessories to suit a Cleveland. This is the first time that |I have ever heard of this conversion. Has anyone here had any experience with this conversion or know of anyone who has one? I am at ends as to which way to go... either this conversion or a T56 (Expensive Daewoo V8 T56) conversion. Whatever is chosen has to handle a minium of 550 flywheel Hp. An auto is not an option as I want the car to be streetable. The car is going into is an Xf Fairmont Ghia runnig a 9' with 4.11 gearsd. Any help greatly appreciated...

Best to speak to Mal Wood as he is a fountain of info on gearboxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the RZ TT's were 6sp and the SZ N/A were 5spd? anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
