I'm in need of the right angle speedo cable adaptor for the MX7 5 speed gearbox. Anyone bought one of these off Nissan? Are they available through Nissan or anywhere else - how much?
Otherwise anyone have one they want to sell me?
Would also be interested in a VLT manual driveshaft or even just the uni's.
yeah i had to replace mine as well, cost $125 from Borgies commodore wreckers in Sunshine, VIC. apparently its similar or the same to the VN one?? but i had to buy a little gear/driver bit for $8 as well from a speedo shop.

NA vl's dont need the 90degree adapter because of the smaller box. The VLT box is a fair bit tighter squeeze in the tunnel. I rang a few gearbox places and all said that the 90 degree adapter is a universal type thing and can be picked up off all different types of cars. Just go to the wreckers. The speedo drive - no luck, the only option was holden, a couple of people suggested that a late model 300ZX unit MAY fit but wernt sure. Rang a couple of jap wreckers and no-one would separate one from a G/box :roll:
You can use a n/a manual cable and feed it straight into the side of the box, just use a little bit of hose over the bit that touches the floor so it doesnt rub, it works really well.
