Most Aussie A15 engines are out of Japanese commercial vans - they're still being made new in Japan, as well as being used in countries like South Africa (mainly A14's
there).

The 5 speed boxes are a much rarer beastie, and there are a few models which recieved them - mainly Japanese only sporty Sunny/110/210 type cars.

In Aussieland the only car I can think of off the top of my head that had this gearbox was the Sunny wagon. Hence the high price for these things - often people ask $700-
$1000 for them second hand.

I've got an A15 and 5 speed in my 1200 ute.

As far as I know there are 3 different A series 5 speeds - there's a dogleg box (like the stanza "rally" box), a close ratio and an overdrive box.

Whoops - should have included all of this. I'm looking at turboing the A15 - best option here is use a cheap A12 (120Y and all that) until you get the system set up properly.
A12 motors can easily be picked up for $50 each (often the whole 120Y for $50-200). Blow a few of them up until you get it right, then put in the 1500 and be careful.....
