No problem. Feel free to ask if you need any extra info. I am an open book!
Pro tip. When fitting the gearbox have someone in the car with a rope looped around the box so they can gently manipulate the height when your trying to get the shaft to slide into the pressure plate etc

Just a lil added tip for anyone playing at home Before fitting the flywheel it’s a good time to replace the rear main, would be a shit go going to all this effort then having to do it all over again Don’t ask how I know 😂😂

Hey mate. Nah I didn't wire up the reverse lights on this. I should have but got lazy. The r31 wiki has a good write up on it!
How do you do the reverse and neutral wiring for the gearbox switches??

Hey mate there is a good write up on the r31 wiki about the reverse light wiring. I didn't do it on this swap.
Hey mate, got any idea on where to get that speed sensor from that plugs into the gearbox?

Stuff like clutch, slave and master cylinder are easy to price cause you can buy them new. But gear box, pedals and tailshaft car a bit random depending on availability. Gearboxes have gone up a bunch but you could maybe find one for like $600?
But where's the bread?
