what car did that tranny come from i just busted my tranny a couple of days ago and i would really like that 6 spd in my car

[exist3nc3]

@iTzFASTER Its from an Opel Calibra, they were sold in Europe and Japan in the mid 90's.  It bolts up but you need to convert it from cable to hydraulic clutch, convert it from 4wd to 2wd, and fabricate a custom mount. I have more info if you are interested.

i think would be a high 13 second pass if you had launched it and not had your other issues. Can't wait to see another with your retune.

@Lamborgini112 hehe I don't think my current tires will pull of a 13sec pass. Also the track is never prepped properly, the launching area is always full of debris and leftover rubber!!! Unless it improves I would be nervous of wheel hopping and breaking stuff with a real launch.

Sweet. Im boosting my 06 for fun, but too bad it's not a manual. Nice vid!

excellent man. you just don't see optras/lacettis/forenzas being modified these days!

@Inu1294 yeah boost it to ramped 12 psi and your looking for some decent power, any over that and you will need to reinforce some things
