yes,chris,thanks for the info,doesn't look as cheap now.oh well,reality strikes.i think i'll still talk to my friend at lintotts,to see if the part numbers are the same,might even be able to get them from japan.BUT,i'd still go for a second hand 5 speed if it could be arranged.now,just have to wait 8 days til my next day off(hey i'm a pizza hut manager,we're open 7 days a week,- but not christmas day,no market for turkey pizzas),then i'll go see him.if the numbers are the same,i'll be sure to tell you all.parts numbers seem to be the only thing we can use from this link,but what an advantage.
