EP12 Project Lotus Hunter: 6 Speed C60 Gearbox shifter conversion and brackets for MR2 Spyder swap

After last week's long 35 minutes episode, this week we finish the Transmission build for the Swap into the Toyota Mr2 Spyder zzw30 (MR-S). Key elements are converting the shifter for the MR Layout and the Transmission brackets. Take a look and follow the step by step process! Enjoy! Add me on Insta: @jesse_yaroo

You should notice it, but I have finally decided to use another editing software because Imovie was ruining my life by corrupting my files. I am using Final Cut Pro X and have for the first time tried to do some color grading. It should look better! Tell me what you think.
Enjoy!!!
Step by Step Process:
To do prior: remove 6 Speed shifter shaft and linkage. Do the same with the 5 Speed shifter linkage and shaft too.
1:54 Take 6 Speed shifter linkage appart, prepare the swap shaft on cover
2:15 Remove both gromets in the shaft that hold everything together
3:00 Remove gromet at the tip of the shaft
3:09 Now remove everything and take good note of the order the parts are assembled
3:40 Re install all the parts removed above in the reverse order you removed them (identical to when you disassembled everything)
5:02 Key point: Make sure the teeth are facing in the right direction!
5:30 Now retrieve the mr2 5 speed shifter linkage and end link
6:12 Install external shifter linkage for 5 speed onto the 6 speed swap shaft
7:18 Reinstall Swap shifter into your 6 speed transmission (C60)
8:53 Trace holes for Shifter linkage bracket onto the housing that is missing on the 6 speed
9:06 Drill 2 holes of 8.5mm
9:16 Thread the two 8.5mm holes with an M10 Threading tool, or with the Original Toyota Threads
9:38 Assemble Linkage Bracket onto 6 Speed with the given threaded holes and screws
10:10 Install the 2 missing Brackets from the 5 Speed Mr2 Gearbox, install 5 speed reverse 5 speed sensor and 5 speed shifter cable brackets.
11:39 Bonus. For all you guys who think the 1ZZ clutch goes on the 2zz... WRONG!
Thats it for Part two! Thanks for watching!
This is Part 2 of 2, of the Transmission conversion video I have made to make your C60 bolt on and plug and play in the ZZW30 chassis!
