    Ummmmm, I think u better double check that. From what I can remember with pacemakers they are different for auto to manual.

    auto box is bigger, if they're from a auto, they SHOULD fit a manual, ask to check just rip ya headers off get him to come over and test fit, if they do fit.. buy em!

    I think that the bottom section of the extractors, where the two sides of the exhaust come together is different on manuals and autos owing to the different transmissions.

    Manual Gen3 VT SS + V6 VT manual turbo
    Bought extractors for my car off ebay, the guy had them on his VR. Didnt ask if his car was a manual or not (my VN is a manual). Found out when i got them that they were for an auto... Got the extractors and took them to exhaust place. Took them a while to fit them and the 2.5" exhaust (3hrs), but they did get them on. The drivers side one was really tight against the gearbox and they also had to take the clutch cover off. When I hit 2500 in any gear, vibrations would get a bit louder for a couple of seconds, but never had any trouble with them. They're no longer fitted to the car as i now have a turbo :yeah: which has a dump pipe on the passenger side! But yes they do fit! :thumbsup: Also if you fit it yourself, you may have to undo power steering rack. Realised that when I took them off, but i ended up angle grinding that extractor as i was pi**ed off by that time...never changing a sump gasket again... :ranting:
