Im looking at putting a auto in my car pretty soon so i will be selling off the MX7 gearbox but dont know what their worth, does anyone know? I would also be selling the 5 puck brass button clutch which cost me about $800, the flywheel, master cylinder and the clutch pedal pretty much everything to do auto to manual conversion maybe even the tailshaft. What do you think that stuff would be worth :?:

I paid $900 for a bare box, no other bits except a worn out clutch and a flywheel. If its a kit id say $1000 + considering its all there.

..yeah I've seen just the gearbox's go for anything up to $1400 so $2000 for everything sounds like a decent price. I'm after the clutch slave cylinder and speedo gear drive thingo for my MX7 if anybody has any?

Hey guys. Im in the same boat as you PSI03L. Though mines not running yet... Im going to run the motor in and have it tuned with the MX7 as its easier with a manual on the dyno... then im looking at selling the Mx7 I have with brass button. Im gonna ask 2600ono with the lot. Im after the C4 that Dominello's Transmission do. Apparently they do a killer C4 which is built for 8second cars and they also do a complete VL turbo conversion kit. Sounds good to me... I was gonna give them a call as soon as my motor is running and suss everything out! L8rZ!

Yeah im probably going to get my C4 from Dominellos, he seems a little pricey but sounds like he knows what his doing and assures me ill have no problems so thats worth the extra dollars.

Hey PSI... do you mind me asking how much you got quoted? to my understanding he was charging 3grand for the kit with a 2500/3k high stall and full manual valve body. Tranny brake is extra... and so is upgrading ure stall but 3k allup was good. I was told all u need is the shifter. Let us know man
