Interesting. Dat141, so u just used the standard 56 series gearbox (clutch housing) for the modification? Do u possibly have photos of that operation??

What makes this conversion not roadworthy? Do u think that it would be possible to use some more time and effort to make it roadworthy?

Which T50 did u use? (from which toyota)

I've seen a few posts on here mentioning that the E Series motors have a very similar bellhousing to the A series with possibly minor modification to make them fit - was the E series engine available in Finland perhaps with an Auto gearbox? perhaps thats where you can get your AT bellhousing.

just a thought hope it helps

Thanks kue1000. I could find one E-series autobox on sale right away (N13, B12 'over there'?). Though its gonna be too expensive to buy for this conversion. Maybe I can find a broken one.

Does anybody know the type of that gearbox (like T50) that I could search for photos of it?

My current idea is to make the clutch housing out of standard gearbox and connect it to toyo gearbox by using flanges.

Here is an exploded view for people who have not seen how T50 looks like:

T50

Heya Kue

Did you have to use that spacer plate thing between the adaptor and the block, or does the adaptor take that space up?

I'll try and remember to take some photos next time the gearbox is out of the car. There are probably easier ways to convert a T50 into a 1200 but we just used what we had lying around, and it only cost around $250 for the tailshaft and the new clutch plate.

N13 is N13 'everywhere'. B12 likewise.

The problem is some countries called certain N-series (Pulsar family) vehicles a Sunny, and others called some B-series (Sunny family) a Pulsar. Better to use the chassis code N13 and B12 -- then we know exactly what you mean.

dat141, it would be great to have some photos.

I found this topic a couple days with pictures of similar conversion. TnPshow had a problem that the input shaft did not stick out far enough after the conversion-> clutch problem

Dat141, do u have any measurements of the conversion u did? It would be great to know the distance from the 'front of the bellhousing' to spot where the bellhousing bolts on. Then I would have some kind idea that what kind of space the clutch requires to function properly.

thanks once again

There seems to be a few pics searching dellow but none of them are IN the cars!
Anyone got any pics of these installed? Are the mounts included with the kit? (Wiki sez you have to remove the existing mounts)
