oh donz....
tell ur fren to be careful with safc neo in the cockpit...many peps may get intrested with it...

guys...found one guy want to letgo his MT at RM700...the gear only...no clutch pump neither clutch plate

 

[tjuantze]

rayzy,

Is it from a 1.5cc D series or a 1.6cc?
Why only the GB? Is he going to reuse his pump?

 

[Type-Z]

Hi There... can i join Project-Z?

 

[rayzy22]

hi type Z...of course u can join us...just tell us a bit about urself,k..anyway welcome

tjuan...the guy want to use back la i think.already to pujuk the guy but then he insist onli MT for sell.

 

[tjuantze]

Welcome Type-Z! Where from and do tell us more bout your ride.

rayzy22, do you not think the GB itself for RM700 is a lil steep? Don't know lah.., I always had the impression that I could get the full set, clutch pump, pedal and all the rest needed for about that price. Not sure though..what do you think?

don, yeongk, ose, what happened to you all? Senyap aje...

 

[rayzy22]

tjuan...it is killing wallet price.at first i though he want to sell the complete conversion but then he said just the MT...want to nego but he didnt intrested to reduce it...then i also didnt intrested to ask further

 

[tjuantze]

LOL..ya...that's what I thought.

Don't know lah..I would really really want to drive manual but am afraid of the 'side-effect' if really change to manual. Especially if not done properly.

Do you know what other things to change besides the pedal assembly, clutch pump, the shifting mechanism etc?? Really need more info lah..
I heard any GB for D series will fit. As long as I don't get the cable clutch ones before yr 1990. Anything after that uses the Hydraulic clutch. Am I right?
And also, better to get one from a D15 instead of D16 as the car will suffer acceleration lost if we use a 1.6cc GB especially on 2nd and 3rd gear.
I have not gone crazy enough to call up Honda Thailand to find out more since they have the manual version. haha..

 

[rayzy22]

hahaha...
maybe u can be that the 'one'.yup what u written there is allright.

rite now my car suffer quite heavy petrol drinking.maybe side effect from watching F1 yesterday...bloody fast n loud la the car...almost pecah my gegendang telinga.but very syiokk...hehehhe

 

[donCityZ]

rayz.. want to ask u.. ur mech fren can service the AT gb or not? mine got problem la... actually from 1st day i bought oledi have this problem... got some funny noise.. and most of time when shift P to D or N to D/R got thug sound... i scared send to HSC will kapak me kaw.. some said, the GB recon can get RM500 only.. so if svc kena more than RM500, is not worth it lo......

 

[donCityZ]

rayz.. ur AT gb still good? can i buy fr u if u chg to MT?

 

[rayzy22]

huhuhu...i also don't know he can do it or not...later i'll ask him

[tjuantze]

Don, thought you want MT GB?

 

[tjuantze]

TT in PG anyone? Any other Type Z-ers want to join?
How about Coffee Bean Roundabout at QueensBay this Friday?

 

[donCityZ]

tjuan... i want MT, but after read here.. so many hassles to go thru to chg it, and so many monies involve, i cancel liao.. if get AT good condition, ok lah for me first.. later when suddenly got monies (rompak bank ka or something), then i dump in B16 DOHC VTEC one shot once and for all.

rayz... please ask ur fren.. but if anything, i would like him to chek the gederk2 noise first... thanks ya! bout the AT gb, i not urgent la.. since no $$ oso.. but i booking ur gb first aa..

 

[rayzy22]

donz...
ur plan is wise indeed...pool the monies then plonk in B16....i had a serious discussion with a foreman at my place (eventualy just made friend with him) and talk about the MT conversion and engine swap.it made me think again...having MT or do engine swap....argh...now pening already.but for the conversion better save up RM7k in hand.

but since i've no reason for engine swap (power is a quest not necessity)...i stick to MT conversion...hope can reduce power loss on tranny and save fuel a bit.
