$460 for a pair mate, that was just for the outside lips not the inside. $150 per lip and $25 polishing fee + $55 ea to fit them.
OH TEXT ME TELL ME... You are not going to like what i bought to replace the commodore
Picked up a Bigport for the Wags on the weekendReading as much as I can about the conversion before I jump into it, Package I was sold was missing a few things although I'd rather pay a little extra for new parts than be left on the side of the road trusting some guys word.
Anywho; it's going to be a great learning curve and I'm pumped to start work. If anyone has some good tips or advice, parts listed in my wanted to buy thread or "been there before stories" please dont hesitate to drop me a pm or reply in this thread.
Cheers, Crowie.
the bigport will transform the car.
the pedal box will be a mission. keep us updated man

Have you had any experience with modifying these pedal boxes?
cheers Crowie.
nope.
i did the "hay man, you have done it before. do it again for some beer" trick.
basically meant i drank and held things while he drilled through the fire wall and put clutch lines in. But that was in a ke70 and it was still fiddly.
there are dudes that have done it in e3's etc, find them and torture them for their secrets.
and i in no way mean to de-motivate you. get in there with a drill and a grinder son!!!!
oh don't worry the motivation is there, i will gladly grind and drill her open to get the clutch working. The few ke3X owners I've spoken to in qld all have the pedal box from whatever car they got their replacement engine from, silvia ect and apparently it's a little bit of work to get them in there. I'd rather just keep the stock pedal box and convert it to a push mechanism seems simple enough and I'm pretty confident in my ability to work it out.
cheers, Crowie
i hear good things are happening in the test fit car ... enlighten us all
All will be revealed in good time young sir, unless you want to pop over.........
