anyone need a t56 conversion?93formula 06-04-2004, 03:54 AM pm or email me for details if anyone or anyone you know is looking for a t56. thanks AlexH 06-05-2004, 02:50 AM Hmm... I wonder how hard / expensive a swap into a thirdgen is... Ken, any ideas? 93formula 06-05-2004, 03:33 AM easy if you got a t5, a little harder if you dont, but still doable. AlexH 06-05-2004, 04:40 PM Yeah, it's an auto right now. :( irocz383 06-05-2004, 05:17 PM The swap is easy!! The only hard part is swaping the pedals. Everything else is a walk in the park. Keep in mind you still need to have a cross member modified or made. 93formula 06-05-2004, 05:24 PM ill throw in a cross member from a fourth gen. LT1Z28 06-06-2004, 11:35 AM Actually the pedals where the easy part :p However you may want to reinforce where they mount up. The car i did started having issues with the back firewall flexing due to the fact that it wasnt reinforced as it is in a 6 speed car. All in all the swap is pretty straight forward and if you have the patience know one should be able to tell that the car was anything but a 6 speed. All you need are simple tools a sawzall is a must and some simple wiring and you are done :p Later Mike 93formula 06-06-2004, 01:57 PM thanks mike, there you go easy, now buy it. lol. irocz383 06-06-2004, 03:14 PM Originally posted by LT1Z28 Actually the pedals where the easy part :p lol... I never thought I'd hear a guy of your size say that swaping out the pedals were easy. I'm definatly not as big as you and I had a hell of a time craming myself under the dash and getting my arms up in there to get to everything. 93formula 06-06-2004, 04:59 PM its easy if you go in upside down on your back and you do everything upside down. your kinda in a bridged postion. or you can always unbolt the drivers side seat, only takes a few minutes. LT1Z28 06-06-2004, 11:01 PM i didnt say it didnt hurt :p I basically shove my heads down by the pedals and hang up side down with my feet on the headrest of the seat dont do this too long it gives you a vey very bad headache :p But just the work of the pedal mounting is really straigt forward the clips to release the pushrods for the pedals is the hardest part after that everything lines up nicely a simple hole in the firewall with a holesaw for the clutch master and you are done other then that all the bolt holes line up on a 4th gen. Later Mike irocz383 06-07-2004, 01:39 AM yeah... thats how I did mine too. The only thing was the holes on the new pedals were too small to accept the bolts from my car. I had to try them for fit a couple times before I got it perfect. Thats the only reason I say it was the only hard part. Even though it wasn't all that hard. Oh.. and the other bad part was I measured up the shifter to cut the hole in the trany tunnel. After I bolt it up, i find out the motor wasn't installed perfectly squared from the factory. The tailhousing sat to the right about an inch off from my measurments. :mad: | ||
