Customer Reviews

  • "I am unable to fully express my gratitude to you for your help and kindness while getting on with my project. I was overwhelmed by the tremendous overall improvement. The car is so much more easy and fun to drive. It is unbelievably quiet. My wife appreciates the oil-less garage floor. My first drive down the road brought tears of joy to my eyes!"
    "Well, I've had a while to play with the 5-speed now, and I have enough miles on my engine rebuild to let it out some. I think the results are incredible."
    "I have been very impressed with the 5 Speed Kit to date. Straightforward and looks well engineered. All bolted together as your instructions said it would."
  • "It was a whole new car, better spaced ratios, easier freeway cruising and all."
    "I just got back from my first test ride after the 5 speed conversion in my 1275 Bugeye and all I can say is its definitely worth the cost and effort. The car really cruises, the transmission and clutch work great and the car just plain feels much better. I can accelerate with modern traffic with no problem, shift as fast as I want (no grinding) and the real bonus is when you shift into fifth and the motor quiets down and the car pulls to 60-70 MPH without the engine sounding like Im wearing it out."
    "If you're in the US, buy the Datsun 210 5-Speed conversion from Rivergate! It works great and is much less expensive than the Frontline kit, even before shipping. There are no modifications to the body needed (just finished installing mine and I'm thrilled)!"
  • "You have a fantastic reputation amongst us Spridget owners, which is fully justified. And your service is as good as your product, which in my opinion is unbeatable."
    "Best thing I ever did for the Midget!"
