EOI manual gearbox crossmembers made in Australia
 
Hey guys my new shop Neo Garage will be doing svx manual gearbox conversions in house, but we'll also be offering manual conversion parts such as transmission tunnel adaptors, gearbox cross members ( suitable for 5 and 6 seed transmissions) and extended gear shift mechanisms. if your interested let me know, as the first run of crossmembers may be the last. thanks, Ben.

Seems like a nice service. Does anyone else offer these key parts or is this a unique opportunity?

he is in Australia Shipping would kill you, I believe there it is all home fabricated so he would (as far as I know) be the only one doing that.

Here it is also mostly done home fab work, but there are at least 2 that I can think of that are doing this for customers.

crossmembers will be outsourced to a leading gearbox conversion specialist based in sydney and will come with tax invoice, not slapped together in my back shed... as for all other conversion parts these will be made to order at my workshop, as with the cross members these will be supplied with a tax invoice. ill be looking around for cheap freight to the US if anyone's interested also thanks, Ben.

so you can use the standard impreza gearshifter in the svx tunnel, the svx auto shifter hole is much wider.

Hey Mate

Is the crossmember design based on the one I used in your svx? And how much are you thinking of selling them for?

similar concept, but without using the original SVX at cross member as a donor, all made from stock. at this stage pricingwill be under $250 each. firm pricing once i get one ( or more) made. thanks, Ben.

Are you able to provide the gearbox, diff , pedal assembles etc in the conversion? Are you able to provide a rough cost? This is pretty awesome news.
