andy,
can i just start by saying WOW! you have done an awesome job on this car, you have created my dream car and i'm in love...

who knows i might even keep it for a lil while longer and advertise it and see if i get some interest for it, hard to tell what its worth now, cause im pretty cofident that its the only manual VZ wagon in australia and possibly the world, and it is pretty unique,

but anyways, im not thinking about that......

if you do decide to part with this absolute masterpiece, i would definitely be interested to know how much you would want for for it.

well done again on an amazing job,
mark

Took the wagon to south coast nationals in Moruya on the weekend and managed to score 2 trophies in the sound off, Picked up 1st for Street class, Sound Quality and a second for Street class SPL,

i am thinking about converting my ute to manual. i have considered selling and buying another but i am keen for a challenge. all the mechanical side of it is easy. just need to ask the wiring loom side of it. i under stand the auto computer in on the passenger kick panel. do u just disconnect this and then use the manual wiring loom, and leave the auto plug disconnected?
the other thing it sounded like you had a bit of trouble with getting all the computers to register that it is a manual. My plan was to send the ecu, bcm and pcm to logicar and see if they could reprogram them to suite manual.
I am just trying to clear all the question i have before committing my self.
