Gearbox Q..

[stiddy]

hey all,

Just out of curiosity, will a T5 from an e-series go in and work fine in an AU?
I was told that they wouldnt, because the AU one is slightly longer than the E series.. or something to that effect, maybe different linkage length?

I have a feeling my gbox is having a slow and painful death, starting to make a funny whine, and goes all stiff when trying to shift.. sometimes wont slot into gear...
and yeah if im up for a new box would an e series one fit, or not?
mainly because i can get it exchanged for $565.. but they are e series boxes..

and are there any really differences in ratios?? or anything else i should know??
