Awesome job. Always had dreams of converting mine. You have given me some good ideas. :beer chug:

You said there are still some little niggles to work out. What are they??

There are a few little electrical things to fix up, like reverse lockouts and clutch switches. More development is needed on the bracket design, it works but could be a lot better. The cross member is a bit rough, would like to remake it with some nice round tube and bend it up properly. Looking at a heavy duty clutch. Also need to get some trim for around the gear shifter, but Holden what $400 so I'll wait for something second hand to pop up.

So you guys might be interested in the kit when I get around to designing it

I have an Adventra and love it. It's a great car, my only dislike is that they never came out in manual. I don't know if I would ever convert it though, I don't have the confidence to do all the work required. What an amazing achievement, well done on a job everyone I have ever spoken to about converting an Adventra to a manual have said is impossible.

Fantastic work OP.

I hope you got extra credits for your course from that.
