No they came from somewhere in victoria. I did see someone in WA selling some 15x10's polished up, but the backspacing was way wrong

So the 5 speed is in, but have not installed the crossmember or cut the hole in the floor for the shifter. The new shifter will be right in line with the strengthening rib that runs level with the front of the handbrake so i'll need to re-enforce that.
And i've got a HQ Salisbury diff, but its a 2.78 ratio, which i think with the 202, will not have enough power. Any thoughts?
Also is there much difference between a Banjo and Salisbury diff?

you want to look for a 3.5:1 ( holden SW had them) would be ok with 5 speed.

My vans running a 202 with celica 5 speed, diff ratio is 2.94. Shes a little bit slow taking off but not too bad

what sort of economy and top speed do you get
also do you have any photos of the gear lever from inside the cab?
thanks

she runs on straight gas, 80lt tank i get about the same kms when was on running petrol 250ish, she's a thirsty one but costs me half as much to fill up on gas. top speed cant tell exactly (speedo is very out) but well over 100. i can take a photo if ya want, dust off the old camera, havnt taken any photos for ages.

you get 250ish from a 80lt gas tank? how thirsty is that 202? had much work done to it?

is that a 100lt but fills to 80lt or a 80lt tank that only fits 60lt?

and how much is it to fill a 80lt gas tank these days?

thanx

That would be awesome, if you get real keen could you take a photo of your crossmember and the underside of where the shifter goes through the floor?

SA Boys looking for a disc conversion, you may be in luck
I dropped into Kent Automotive in Woodville this arvo and was enquiring about getting my beddy drums re-drilled for HQ Pattern (still looking at this option)
But the guy i was speaking to there had done many HQ disc conversions back in the day, and is going to look for me tonight if he still has the plans for them.
Hopefully he does and then he can churn out a fresh set for me (and any of you other SA boys) who can't fit the massive Hoppers 300mm kit

In other news, i snagged a set of 15x8.5 US Indys, completing my set, (just need to polish these ones to match the others)
My 15x10's fit on a Banjo diff, but i'm considering running spacers just to give them a bit more clearance
Celica conversion is still in the process of being done
Diff transplant is about to happen
Oh and i've taken out a loan to get my wife a new car and the panel and paint work done (hopefully) on my van
Now i just need to sell my 2 cars to repay the loan
