Nick is that Galant in Soufrika? also I understand why the Beams its
an easy beast to setup already rwd and here in japan I can get it for
around 400usd engine alone but why didnt he go 4g63? hp too low NA?

QR engine is also very ugly but someone like you Matt could dress one up
for the retro ocassion although quite a challenge, its very angular.
QR is lighter @ 121 kg 267 lbs and shorter length yet my tiny TVR AJP v8
using Al Meling`s F1 architecture and weight has double the hp / torque
sits lower in the bay, looks beautiful and has bugger all wiring.

On a good note for those after an A series 5 speed or QR rwd 5 speed I found
this by fluke which is the best budget option surpassing any other custom
gearbox conversion for any engine out there even for an A series.

These guys do any custom bellhousing cut/shut cheaply to a munchie so Chevy T5
must be used for compatibility and quote insert below from HAMB rodding site
also states the chev t5 has longer input shaft that must be trimmed but prob
what A series needs if going T5

Never seen anyone do this quality for this price on a bellhousing cut and shut
Mazworx would have save the custom scene many headaches years ago compared to
now where old cars are just much harder to find and modify due to their values.

Well at least the option is there for a T5 A series bellhousing, Take note Rallytwit! :)

Even for those after an RB conversion for their big hp SR the T5 option is a bargain.
