greenmac80 Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 Ok i was at u pull it at lonsdale and me and my mate both got 5 speed GB from KE55 sedans! Just tell them that they are 4 speeds and u get them for 72bucks! now as far as i remember there are another two KE55's or 30's with 5 speed boxes in them. both the ones we got are in good nick. if ya after a 5 speed i'd head down there1 as i have only ever seen 4 speeds in these cars!! Cheers, Luc Quote
dfunkt Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 out of curiosity, do you know what they charge for the extra gear?? Quote
snot35 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Posted February 18, 2008 Damn! Thanks for the heads up, might just have to look into that on the weekend :P Quote
greenmac80 Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Posted February 18, 2008 (edited) out of curiosity, do you know what they charge for the extra gear?? ummm the 4speed price is 72ish but the 5speed price is like 180ish.. massive difference. Hence when you go through you say like KE30 4 speed and they'll give it to you for 72. how could they tell the diff? unless they removed the inspection plate?

COROLLAANDY Posted February 18, 2008 Report Posted February 18, 2008 Yeah if you're gonna do this you'd want to leave the shifter behind! Wish I lived in Adelaide! (Only sometimes!!) Did once many years ago. Can someone pull these boxes out and send them to me?? I'll give you one carton of warm Southwark beer! Quote
greenmac80 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Posted February 19, 2008 The 5 speeds are in a white KE55/30 sedan and also a aqua KE55/30 sedan. i was there today they are still there.. Quote
philbey Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 cool. Any more tips on location - Along the north or the east fence? After all, there's a lot of white and aqua ke30 corollas there haha. Quote

Mybowlcut Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Just jump inthe cars and fiddle with there sticks!!! lolHahaaa :P Quote
snot35 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Posted February 24, 2008 To make it easier for you guys, the one in the aqua 55 is now gone! I also pulled the cover on the one in the white 55 and the box is very tidy inside. I'd jump in there and grab it if I were you guys. I didn't put all the inspection cover bolts back in, but they are all there in the dizzy cap under the gearbox. As a bonus, the guy didn't even ask me if it was 4 or 5 speed, he just charged me $72! Bonus! :P North fence. Quote
shida Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 ARGH i wish i lived in Adelaide, I'm looking for a 5spd as the 4spd is really starting driving me up the wall :yes: Does anyone know if there are any still there? More importantly who wants to get it for me and send it to sydney??? :sob: :no2: :y: lol Quote
stevejw Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 If anyone goes there & finds all the 5 speed boxes sold but a shifter on the floor of each car :cool: grab a shifter for me I'm after a 5 speed shifter post to Brisbane will pay + freight . Cheers Steve Quote
