Getrag 6 speed fitted, the factory rear mount was retained, the actual gearbox mount was modified

 

and here is the modified HIPPOSLEEK front bumper, the aircon condensor has been removed, untill i can find somewhere to re-fit it or fabricate a new one, i am thinking of plumbing x2 smaller condensors inline, back to back above the intercooler, but that can be done as and when the thing is running
