Re: Project 2 into 1, Mk1 Auto to Manual.

Great write up!

Thanks for sharing your experiences, Im planning on doing the same for my 91 Eunos so its good to see what the potential pitfalls are. Ill probably do what you suggested though - getting a garage to take out old gear box and fit in new one as I dont have a suitable work space.

The Whitey Senior Build

I was getting a little fed up of the same old routine of taking a huge chunk of the money I would have left after paying all the bills and watch it sit in a savings account.

The problem with firefox is that the tick to tell the pc to remember the log on is unticked each restart but the login and password are populated in the boxes. Strange, sounds like a Firefox problem but it does automatically log into other sites. That's two slightly different things. You saved your...
