5 speed supra manual conversion help

[o_man_ra23]

your confusing me now... the box that originally came with you car from toyota, which you pulled in favour of a supra 5 cog, will have the speedo drive that you need, be it cable or electronic... unless you are converting your speedo from cable to electronic.

Im confused

Try rocket industries, the W5x ones used by fraud and holden bogans should fit like a finger in a bum.

when i replaced my 7MGTE i swapped out the gearbox with it...

what got me was... the two gearboxes used different speed sensors...

right now i have one connected, working perfectly, and another zip tied to the chassis...

im really confused now... thinking about it, because the one i couldnt use, im not sure if its connected tot he chassis or bolted to the gearbox in some way (like a brace, or guides for the wires...?)

because i removed the old speedo drive from the box i removed, and put that intot he new gearbox, and connected that up and it all works....1?!??!

i am teh confusered now....

although im pretty sure the new gearbox was from an analouge dash, whereas my old one was from my car, with digi dash...

my head hurts :/

Always retain the speed sensor from your old box when doing a box conversion... i think thats the lesson here. Good ol Mr Toyota seems to have made the speedo sensor slots in the boxes universal.
