P.S. i am doin a manual conversion for my car at the moment and i have ran into some trouble with removing the dash for my ef to change the pedal box, if anyone can give me any hits or tips it would be apreciated.

hey mate welcome to the club, mines going in for the manual conversion but im paying someone to do it lol

I've never undertaken a manual conversion myself (I have a <3 BTR fetish) but I'll assume that EF-ELs are the same as EA-EDs, whereas you don't necessarily need to remove the whole dash, you can augment your auto pedal box with a Mal Wood clutchpin? Someone who knows what they're on about will be able to answer your questions properly soon enough mate, good luck with it

Removing the dash should be the same as an ED - if so there are five or six bolts at the top of the dash (where it meets the windscreen, underneath the plastic; allen key needed to remove that first), one bolt in each footwell (near where the door hinges are), and a few around the base of the stereo surround. After that you need to undo a few plugs on the right side footwell (near the pedals).

It can be tedious removing the old pedal box and putting in the new one, but honestly it's not that hard of a job. I didn't fully remove the dash when I did mine. It should only take a couple of hours, lots of twisting/contortionist-style maneuvers, and even more cursing.

Thanks guys for your advice, in the end i got it and my ef is very happy now. its just like unleashing soo much more power that is just absorbed by the old auto.
I cant wait to post my progresive pics of the conversion. Hopfully it might help someone.

Anyway Peeps
Talk soon
