Thats a nice car you got there....saw it on saturday couldnt belive how good the rims look... all you need is to turbo the beast and put a massive Front mount and that thing will be one of the best TX5s going around ...BUT the only thing that i dont like about it at the moment is that you still got the MUD FLAPS on you have to drop'em...anyway till next time take care |

haha u wouldnt believe wat i did 2day, took the mudflaps off lol. I liked it 4 a while cos they pretty much touched the ground I wish i had a turbo and front mount!! huuge front mount Ile pay u 2 convince my old man lol, might happen one day. Guna respray it Velocity Red maybe at the end of the year. The guy who had it b4 left it in his garage for 12 months, so its been a bit of work neatening it up. Think the respray will set it off nicely Thanks for the comments guys |

Where abouts do you live?? Where have you seen me? I had stockies on it while my old man took the 18's into work to balance them. Haha had stockies on the back for a couple days :S Looked like a bit of a noobie.. stockies on the back of a fwd lol. I'm guna give those 18in wheels back, turns out they are pretty fucked I'll prob put the turbo 15's on for now, and save up for some other 18's. Try and find some similar looking ones hopefully, cos I reckon they suited. |

Hey Guys, gearbox troubles have me stunned and i was wondering if there is a difference between tx5 2.2L AT gearboxes and Tx5 turbo (1990 2.2L) gearboxes? or if any one could tell me what else is compatible would be great, thanx for reading |

Hey, the turbo gearboxes have a bigger input shaft so i dont think you could use a NA gearbox on the turbo motor or vise versa. I was going to buy an auto turbo tx5 and convert it to manual but didnt for that reason. I imagine it would be hard to find a good manual turbo box. |

word of advice...even if it is compatible, dont get the N/A tx5 box! way too weak...you will break it in a matter of days. lol, ask texy_5 how weak it is, he knows from experience, as do i |
