G'day mate.

KE (non turbo) Lasers use the F series gearbox. Alloy. Not very strong, but the KE's did not need a strong box as the engines are weak as ****. If you need a replacement gearbox you can pick them up very cheap.

The KE turbo's with the DOHC engine come out with the G series gearbox. Steel. Much stronger. They WILL bolt directly in. However are not cheap.

The G series gearbox's from the KF/KH DOHC's will also fit with small mods needed.

Basically if you need a strong gearbox get a G series gearbox from a FWD Turbo KC or KE Laser TX3. Expect to pay $600 minimum to $900 maximum. You will need a decent clutch and fly wheel to suit.

I'd say F series for that price.

I've seen a few tranny's around Kings Cross, if that helps.

(Sorry, that was a really bad joke, but............................I just couldn't resist)
