    Supercharged 380/9G with manual transmission

    had a spare supercharger laying around and a spare 380 that was wrecked and I rebuilt so what the hell ...let's see if it comes together.

    See for yourself, it's nice and smooth and powerful.

    I think it's the only supercharged manual one in australia, did you guys have the manual 9G in the US?

    anyway here's the video on first test drive...

    No we didnt get the manual transmission for 2 last generations straight. I was wondering is your galant LHD and can you take a picture of your fire wall where the clutch mounts inside and outside? i remember going to the junk yard and there seem to be less space to put a pedal and master cylinder.

    Only sonata f5m42 swapped. N/A build in motion.

    I'm willing to bet money that you can use the transmission, mater cylinder and other parts from a 4g Eclipse GT to convert a v6 9g galant to a manual

    I'm pleased to learn that a manual version of the 9g is out there is some shape/form, would your new 380 be in the VRX submodel range?

    Yes, its a VRX you are indeed correct.
    The hydraulics from the brake master cylider are shared with the clutch.



    here are some pics of master and slave cylinders and transmission


    enjoy...but remember we are right hand drive...

    A switch on the clutch pedal that completes the circuit when the clutch pedal is depressed.

    In Australia in a manual car you put the gearstick in neutral and it just starts.

    I suspect in the US there would be plenty of interlocks to stop someone starting it and then for suing the car maker for something or another and you probably need your foot on the clutch or brake pedal in the US?

    We dont have any of that stuff..we call it natural selection by God.

    We do have a switch on the clutch though, purely to cancel cruise control when you depress the clutch pedal...else the motor would rev out hard...
