Fair enough, I had 6 supra 5 speed gearboxes in my van behind this engine... I now have a pile of 6 broken supra 5 speeds.. the toughened aussi 4 speed has way out lasted all the jap crap boxes and I have a speedo that works againCastle Headers advertise a set that's meant to fit and they assured me they will fit but I tried and the don't!
I am considering doing a hydraulic clutch conversion over a cable. Dellows make a good kit. little more expensive than the Castle main rod shop kit but from experience the CRS kit was crap.
My experience with cable vs Mechanical I've owned a few of each and the early commodores and actually like the mechanical. if its in good condition with no sloppy pins, good rubber bush at the top and adjusted spot on they work beautifully and light under foot. I'm running a super heavy duty clutch in the van and a standard heavy duty in the VN SS and the van is way lighter and better to operate. this is why I was trying to find a good set of extractors to fit. I was trying to find an off the shelf set to save time. (one of the reasons I found the CRS clutch kit and bell housing for the supra box crap was because you cant adjust it correctly but thats another story altogether)
