Default My Christmas Came A Little Early.

Hey guys thought I would show off what will be my next mod to the car. However this will not be happening till after the new year break as the car lately has been running really well and I dont want to stuff around with it as ill be needing the car during the holiday period and I dont want problems.
I pulled this out of a wreck at jolly's rogers in dandenong yesterday. Got it for a reasonable price to.
Complete full conversion. All seems to be in very good condition but we wont really know until we put it in however I am tossing up to send it away and just get it checked out to make sure everything is fine.

Big thanks to Wayne LTDHO for all his help getting it out.

While it is out and you have some time, clean it all up like new, did that with my gearbox before it went in, worth the effort in my opinion.

Hehe, yeah it is.

To get the most life, and best results from the conversion, you should do the things above.

The LSD is optional, but once you start dumping clutches, the single spinner won't cut it anymore ;)

Great buy Shaun! I gave you the idea, didn't I :P

Even still, you've done well to get the EBII box. Mine's only an EA one, but I don't mind it. Heaps better than auto. Are you going to swap the pedal box, or are you going to use the Mal Wood pin? I'll try to help out if possible. (Just remember I didn't do all the work on mine, so I'm not an expert)

all my single spinners copped relatively good ls off the line (including the multicolour e i used to have.... could rarely pick that i was running ss diffs another reason why i never went to the effort of bolting them up!
