Re: Transmission input shaft cover gasket

Thanks Ryan, that's what I've been looking for. My local auto parts stores did not have a listing for it.

Transmission input shaft cover gasket

Getting ready to replace the input seal on my 5-speed and can't seem to find any place that will sell me just the gasket that sits under the cover. I know I did this on another transmission a few years ago but can't remember if I used a gasket or used form a gasket. My preference is for an actual pa...

Re: Speedo Driver

Thanks Dale. Just ordered up new input and output shaft seals, clutch release bearing and slave cylinder and hose. Want to be ready to install it when the weather cooperates.

Re: Speedo Driver

Just finished cleaning up the new close ratio 5-speed for my orange Z. Birdman had an excellent recommendation for cleaning up greasy parts (trans, diff, etc.) quick and cheap. The 99 cent store has oven cleaner for 99 cents a can, which is about 1/4 the price of brake cleaner. I sprayed in on the t...

Re: Breakfast Run

Great idea! My wife and I have done the breakfast run to Wickenberg in the past and also had a great experience. The cooler weather will open up all kinds of opportunities.

Re: Speedo Driver

I also found a black 17 tooth speedo driver I would be willing to trade for a red one.The white one I have is a 19 tooth driver. I'm looking for a 20 tooth driver.

Re: Speedo Driver

Tire size is another variable I forgot to mention. You and I are about the same (reads 5 mph faster than actual). To change that you need to go with a gear with more teeth. In your case, I'd try a blue gear (one more tooth than you have currently). For me I probably need to go from a white to a red....

Speedo Driver

Since I'm swapping my 5-speed for another one, I thought it was time to change the speedo gear so the speedometer reads more accurately. I'm currently using a white 19 tooth version and it seems like my speed is reading about 5 mph too fast. I'll be running a close ratio 5-speed and a 3.90 rear end....
