Gemini Gear Box

I have a high stall gemini auto box I was going to fit into my Gemini.
As I have scrapped that plan I was wondering if this box will fit in a Piazza?
and/or if there is anything special about the Piazza auto box?

Cheers

David
PS. Obviously I have no mechanical idea.. so don't rub it in.

Anyone know how to fix this as I have no idea where the sensors are and /or what to do with them when I find them. Car is located in Croydon. Anybody know a good mec...

Vibration

I have finally got around to again looking into the vibration through the steering at idol again. Last time we replaced the drive shaft and gear box mounts which helped but not eliminated the problem. As I know zip about engines I had a mechanic look into it for me. The engine mounts appear to be fl...

Would love to convert it to manual but this car has been promised to my daughter and she does not handle a manual too well.
