what is your problem why do you think you know it all when you clearly dont if you are not interested in buying then dont post comments to me please thanks

I think his 'problem' is that he's suspicious that you're trying to sell a 1997 "R" manifold as if it were a 2003+ "R" manifold. One has significant value, while the other doesn't (being, unless I'm very much mistaken, identical to a normal T5 manifold)...and your initial advert was far from clear regarding which these were.

I believe you're honest, and any potential confusion was unintentional...but some might claim otherwise, so let's not give them room to accuse you of that. Just to clear it up, if you'd like me to change the thread title to "2 1997 'R' manifolds", I'd be happy to do so...

cheers

Sorry bambam but I'm not after any of your awards

Just because you have converted your AWD into an FWD car doesn't mean you have done a total conversion

However if you have then you would of changed the gearbox(which I know you haven't)You would of also removed the transfer box and fitted the T5 offside front drive shaft

You would of also removed the AWD fuel tank and fitted the FWD tank(which again I know you haven't)You would of also fitted the rear(complete) chassis.Again which you haven't.

However the simplest way is to just remove the prop shaft.

Does the Kenny HU have an amp built in for the centre speaker? If so, that should just plug in. Then ditch the separate surround module and just use the speaker. Autoleads do a DIN to RCA phono harness for SC900/901 equipped cars.

Thread title will be changed in a moment...

wrong again as the awd driveshaft dont have to be changed at all as it just fits back into the gearbox with no mods at all and dont have to change gearbox, the transfer box just comes off with no probs, the propshaft cant just come off on its own as the transfer box will still spin and cause shaking and slow the car down due to the power going through the transfer box so whats the point in just taking off the propshaft and leaving the angle gear as you got to take it off, the awd petrol tank stays there no need to change it, and the awd rear beam and diff needs to be changed to a fwd one because the extra weight of the awd to the fwd one is a hell of alot more in weight and size due to the diff and part of the propshaft and yes its all been done by me and my mate on the ramps in about half a day and yes its all been converted to fwd only thing left is rear diff to remove and replace thanks for asking tho and not giving the right info as normal
