Cheers man, I've been really slack though, cos of work I'm only working on my car on Sundays

So I don't get much time to do anything.

sounds like me.except lately I've been busy sundays too.

Yeah your site looks good.You might want to take measurements of your tranny shifter hole and compare it to a wrecked 5sp one and see how close they really are.I think you use the stock slave hose to any tranny but i might be wrong.ITs just easier to work with new hoses if they are rubber anyways.Make sure you know where thos hoses go too.

There is also the small problem of the automatic chasis having the hard mount closer to the rear of the car than in the manual chasis. Beware!!

At least that is how it is in the S3 here in the US. The 84-85 auto was a bit longer than the manual.
