I love the look of your ghia,that is gonna be some car when your finished,I will be checking how your getting on.Unfourtunately at the moment I can't do a lot on my car due to a pending court case,so I am collecting and cleaning parts and doing more research.

The ECU options are really no different than the Subaru 4-cylinders. I love the way Mendeola mounted the Subaru transaxle:



The transaxle pictured is the hybrid geared, reverse pinion setup from Todd. It also has the Torsen limited slip differential. Mendeola built a pretty slick shift coupler also.

Best part about this setup is that there will be no adapter plates or other funkiness. I know you're all in on the G50. Like I said, I've been there with the Porsches and the bills. From past experience, saying "good luck with that" would be an understatement.

I agree with you with my small experience of porsche gearbox...

You have got me thinking !!! about the subarugears route but ive been looking at the costs .Subarugears/built box.

Gearbox $5450 Australian dollars = £3560 GBP
Shipping $ 450 Australian dollars = £ 294 GBP
Total = £3854 GBP
No clutch,no Quaife diff


My G50 £1750
KEP Adapter £ 550
Quaife LSD £ 500
Fitting/clutch aprox £1000
Total = £3800


Ok I have to pay aprox £400 to have the diff fitted but once its in there it is supposed to transform the cars handling/characteristics.

A guy in the UK called Russ Fellows runs a G50 and his street legal bug he uses the G50 I am pretty sure he is happy with it.

This is him putting it through its paces.
