For Sale 5 speed conversion kits [formerly by eaglegate]

[mctriumph]

I have now sold out of the 40+ bellhousing kits I have had made.
Now that I am now semi-retired I would like to sell on the rights and tooling along with stock in hand.
Anyone interested in a small side business should call me.
I want to see this service to community be continued. A five speed Triumph is a joy!

I have recently purchased from B.Close his lock, stock and patterns to make
the supra to triumph conversion kits. These will soon be available again as I have
just received my first batch of heat treated bellhousings.These are now getting
machined! If you are interested please call 785 234 2005 for more details.

Did this ever happen? Do you have any info? Website?

The LAST kit is now sold. I hope somebody will pick up the torch and continue making these kits.
The bits and bobs that will be sold with the rights are too many to list. Please call if interested

What ever happened to this? I just picked up a 5 speed and I'm looking for a kit. Thanks

I am taking orders & deposits. IF I get enough to make another batch practical(above 6), I will
get the castings made and then get the machine work done on them.Not cheap. Everything has gone up post covid.
I am projecting a price of 2k (?) when and if I get enough orders.
Deposits will be refunded IF there is insufficient interest .

Great. I'm unfamiliar with this kit is there pictures of what's included or is it just the bellhousing? I'm probably in if you get enough people

What 5 speed do you have...Toyota W58?

W58 supra. Aluminum sandwich plate.

I have the same W58 transmission in my TR6.
I think mine came out of an ‘86 Supra.
By the way, I removed the Toyota bell housing and listed it on eBay…. It sold to someone in South Africa.

W58 supra. Aluminum sandwich plate.

There is a company here in Australia that sells/sold bell housings for these, together with old skool manually operated clutch mechanism.

What are you taking for a deposit?

400 is what is needed to make it workable.

Gliderman if it is fitted into a Tr6 it is 82-85 Supra .The picture Slegs posted is THE desired unit
for a Tr6. The 86-88 can be used in the Tr3/4 with minor mods to the tunnel cover. The Tr6
has the saddle panel/radio dash brace that make this impossible.

You are exactly right! I just looked at the photos I took when I bought the transmission.
It is clearly labeled ‘85 Supra. I had it wrong.
Here’s a pic when I put it in the car.

I suppose I have put in around 20 or so of the Eagle Gate version. It uses the OE clutch slave.
Much easier to repair if the slave fails.

Hey Mad Dog I contacted John at quantum mechanics he is definitely interested and I sent him your information so you should be getting a call from him. I definitely would be in for one kid and I believe he would do at least five
