got completel finished today!
its sooo much more fun to drive. heaps of poke now.
plus my fuel economy has improved already!

like to thank Voxace and the guys in that thread for the info
and mates from work for doin the Heave-Ho with me.

headin to motorplex next week for a timeslip!
ill have an interior clean and see what i can do with the shifter and post up some pics


p.s... am i the first Lane 5 speed in WA? may i have that title? lol

nice work mate, i got a ea box in my ef just last thursday. and F**k does it hammer. Couldnt believe the increase in response, best mod anyone could do with there auto falcon imo. i've also notice better fuel economy, ive been gunning it everywhere and still got 470 to the tank

id be looking for spare boxes boys
Ea gearboxes are known not to be the best
They have a 4bolt flywheel compared to the 6 bolts on later models and you will probably have synchro probs soon

Nothing wrong with ea boxes apart from being a little older, which means more wear on them i guess.

EA boxes have a 3 bolt flywheel and slightly smaller clutch, but the later model 6 bolt flywheel and bigger clutch is a straight swap over which is what i did the other week.

And yes its the best mod you can do..... now fit some 3.7 diff gears in

lol mine has the 6 bolt flywheel, with larger clutch,the box only has 175K kms on it.

H.M.A.S LTD goes alright now... AU is next suarve. Im gonna need someone to sink piss and lift boxes with me. Im lookin at you buddy..

nice work markwright, now all you need to do is take it to the track and try to break into the 17 second barrier haha joking mate. interesting to see weather manual lane could take a auto falcon

haha well yeh i bloody hope it beats 17
i had a 6 bolt flywheel too, and previous owner of the bunky said it had a heavyduty(maybe s**t) clutch not so long ago, i beleive him about the "not so long ago" as it had loads of meat on the clutch plate AFTER i thrashed it to the city from kwinana haha.
syncros are probably going. i need to adjust the cable a bit better.. pedals too high but thers still bulk travel before the friction point..
after i save a bit of cash i might invest in gettin a later model box just for peace of mind and probly a bit more poke. maybe a 6button clutch or something

il be going down next wednesday to find out! (ill be reading all the tips too )
same night goin up against a mate in an auto vt bombadore.. exagerators and sports zorst and lowered suspension..

oh ill be there lancey!
with enough notice i always wanna help
none of my mates trust me to do cashys for them asses
