head on the lane is near gone! so soon the lane will be getting 4499 extractors,j3 chip,cam gear (all for $400 unsure if the chip is blank or not) head reco port n polish

still deciding on what cam to go, would like to go a 997b or 1521a but i read with an auto id need a stally so that leaves me with goin the 1636, i do know a dude with a xr6 manual conversion :)
be pretty cool to have a manual fairlane

what are ur thoughts??

Not sure how it'd go with the longer wheel base and everything.
Common sense dictates (Being that the lanes and the falcons etc all have the same engine/trans) that the tailshaft would be longer, so the box wouldn't reach properly.
But that's without really knowing, just using common sense.

That's my two cents, anyway.

It'd be awesome to see, none-the-less.

Just make sure you get an E series T5, I made the mistake of getting an AU T5 and had to shorten the tail shaft.

But you will love it, it makes the car so much more enjoyable and also better on fuel.
