Make sure you get the later one with the cooler, otherwise if you do alot of highway driving in 5th it will stay there permanetly as it welds it self together from the heat

are the 915 boxes available in Australia ?

I had made enquiries only earlier this week regarding 915 porsche boxes to fit to my dualcab . The porsche wrecker informed me that all late model 911 porsches ( 1974 on ) are fitted standard with the 915 tranny . Only the really late models were upgraded to the G50 h/duty transmission .:bounce:bounce

What sort of difficulties are we looking at to fit a 915 porsche box to a beetle (66 model). is it acheiveable.... what sorta moneys a 915 box worth? Old school beetle with 5 spd gearbox has a nice ring too it. :thumb

915 in good nic $3200 in vic . centre of diff spline to bellhousing face 8mm longer compared to a s/s/plate box ,from centre of diff to shift rod 150mm longer I think .

early 930 turbo had 4spd G50 box .

here is mine it's a 915 fitted into my late bay if you need any info let me know. i also have info on bug installs to
