Re: Vz senator manual gearbox
Mate do it ,as a V8 in Senator is luxury and fun all rolled into one. HSV should have done this as an option IMO.

If you can, grab a gearbox from a VZ HSV with the shorter ratios and shorter shifter than the older cars, I think they call it M112.
The box in the VZ is an MM12. The ratios are a bit different to the MM6 in earlier versions but with the standard 3.45 rear gearing and the MM12 this gives you the same driving ratios as a MM6 and 3.9 rear end.

Just M12 bud not MM12. I've got one. With 3.73 gears in mine it's like having 4.3's. Expect 4th which remains 1:1
