Hey i was just wondering if anyone has any diagrams on how the gearstick seperates from the box or anything similiar to that.

Maybe out of a workshop manual or something.. IF you do could you please let me know!

theres 3 clips that hold the linkages to the top of the box, then the 4 nuts that hold mounting plate to the body of the car

I'm talking more about the actual gear stick itself, how to removing the top (Thicker) piece from the other, looking to modify it

Just a question on a VZ manual thread
if im driving along the highway at 80kph in 6th gear and i plant my foot, obviously the revs take a while to build up from 1500rpm, but the worst sound occurs, almost like a groaning sound. it goes away once the revs reach 3000-3500rpm.

it only really happens when i plant the foot in 5th or 6th while the engine is at low revs.
its hard to say where its coming from, but it seems to be coming from the motor not the gearbox.
What do other VZ manual drivers think? i wouldnt think auto drivers would have ever experienced this as the trans would just change back a gear...

hey andyman does this remove the cover or the stick?

It removes both, as the gear knob is part of the boot cover & cant be seperated.

It isn't, if you take the button out their is a screw behind it and then the front plate lifts off.
Thats how I changed my VZ auto stick from plastic to chrome.?

Mate, where talking about a manual gear stick here, not auto! hence the thread title.
