W58 gearshifter positions Sun, 17 August 2003 07:09 Go to next message
Apparently there are four different gear shifter positions for the W58 gearboxes! (I'm very VERY slowly doing an auto -> manual in my cressida and it would be nice to find out all this stuff before I go looking for a gearbox, mainly so I know which cars to steal from)

Positions

    * A 18"
    * B 19"
    * C 20.5"
    * D 21"


Anyone know which cars come with which? (RA65, MA61, MA70)

Cheers
Wilbo

Not sure which one comes in which cars.. BUT

i needed the 19" one for my sprinter conversion... apparently its the hardest to find (although that came from dellows).

Since he said it would fit I hasselled him until he gave me a cast plate and slider (which is all you need to change it around).

Dellows prolly sell these now.

I'm guessing the MA61 and RA6X ones are the 19", because I swear there are others that are further forward, and I know two that are further back.

20.5" is from an MA71 I'm assuming because thats roughly what my 1GGTEU W58 came with.

Hope that helps.

I needed a housing that sat the stick further back, I must have either the 18 or 19" one, & gave the Castlemaine Rod Shop a call. They deal with plenty of supra 5 speeds, & they charged me I think $40 for the housing & the little cast linkage thingy.
I still havn't changed it yet though, as you gotta pull the bastard box apart to do it......


EDIT: Doh'! I didn't even read the first post properly!
Well, if you do get stuck with the wrong position, see above. Smile
