Hi guys just wondering if its possible to fit a supra 5spd into an ea....i have heard that it is...

if it is has anyone done it?
what is involved? ie cost and extra bits required (bell housing?)
should i just get a normal T5?

Thanks alot
:D

yeah mate it can be done i have done it my self in the ea turbo.

i got a complete conversion kit from castlemain rod shop cost 685 bucks but that was including a cross member that was useless (they dont make the crossmember for the ea-el) but they supplied me with a xd-xf (i did ask for it so i could get the bolt pattern) i just modified the standard manual t-5 cross member and it works fine

the box goes for about 500 for a n/a and about 1200-1500 for a 5 spd turbo box.

cheers.joe.

Yes, its possible, and i beleive it has been done.
Castlemaine have bell housing kits etc, best bet would be to call them, they can tell you exactly whats involved.
Dont go a T-5 if you plan on driving it real hard (the reason im staying with the auto) as they cant take it.

what are the ratios like in comparison to the T5? taller, shorter, closer, wider?
