hi there,,
just had bad news that the 5 speed in my 1997 BA astina is stuffed,,
can get one out of a 2000 KN lazer can anyone tell me if it will fit,,,
both have the 1800 twin cam engine
being a girl its hard to get an honest answer down here

engines are different from both those models cars.

you can use the gearbox from the KN Laser, but you will need to change the end of the driveshafts to 2000 versions and speedo sensor from the BA.

any ford laser/liata 95-98 will fit without any modifications also.

or buy above one. saves a search.
