Default t5 conversion - warrandyte south

Ok the last day kinda got ruined due to the main man pulling out at the last minute so ive now got a new offer


you need to bring:

all tools (and i mean all including jacks stands ratchets or whatever)
i have all parts
you need to know how to do the entire thing with no "guesses" including all wiring and clutch alignment

must be done on a saturday so theres always the sunday if the job is not finished as i have to drive it on monday.


payment is very negotiable, ie: im willing to fork out money as long as its done properly and doesnt take too long to complete.

pm me if you are serious about helping and ill give you a $ figure of what im prepared to fork out for a hassle free day

A less demanding tone in your request would probably gain a better response from the parties who would be able to help you, and you wouldn't even have to pay them.

Otherwise, good luck.

well i tried the option with no money and the people who turned up were the people who turn up and lend a hand to everything, however we didnt have the tools to get it done, im trying to keep this somewhat professional so i dont get a bunch of responses like "yeh maybe i can do it i might come round on weekend at maybe 10 so i can have a look" or "yeh ill be there for sure.." then they wake up in the morning and think "gee im not getting anything out of this **** it i wont go"

i figure if i offer money, and keep it serious those guys will look for things to do elsewhere.

i know it sounds a bit demanding, but sometimes it has to otherwise it will never get done, i paid for the gearbox at the start of feb and its still no closer to getting in my car.

heres an idea. drive ur car with the parts to somones house who wants to help, that way they dont have to lug around 400 billion tools. i would do it but i would only do it here and on a satdy arvo/sunday as i work satdy mornings. and i dont have a jack that works.

I have a Jack. So if Josh (efgiar) is willing to do it then I will be in as well and I can help him and provide stands, some extra tools and the Jack.
