nice, im digging the evo style grill
lol i don't think thats a true grill, its looks like he fiberglassed that in himself....
Why are you trying to make it look like an evo 8 front?
So I started working at the Air port 3rd shift detailing JetBlues aircrafts (waxing the exterior and detailing interior)from 10:30pm-4:15am.On top of that we have a family owned Landscaping business that we start at 7:00am-4:30pm.Ive done this 2 job schedule for alittle over a year starting in January of 09.Anyway,One night I took the galant to work and i passed into the employee parking lot.i found a spot to park so i drove up alittle to reverse into the parking space.As i shifted into reverse and gave it gas i heard a very loud break and cracking sound.I shrugged it off and continued reversing and as i did so i seen infront of me an enormass amount of pink transmission fluid!Checked under and found this..

Had AAA come pick up me and the car.I think the only good thing about this situation was that i got the night off and got some sleep.
Took the transmission off weeks later and checked it out.

look on the bright side....5 speed swap FTW!!!!
I took it to a local transmission shop to check if everything was alright with the inside.Everything was fine the only thing i needed to get was an outer housing and swap them out.To be honest i never got around to it.I got tired of having a quick automatic so now this is where my 5 speed swap came to mind!!!
Went on car-parts.com and seen that a local salvage yard had a 2000-2005 manual transmission for grabs.I shot over there in the matter of minutes lol

Now that the Auto trans,torque converter,and flywheel are out lets start changing it to manual.The set-up i ended up going with was..
5 speed Transmision build:ACT 2600 clutch with street disk,OEM flywheel,Wavtrac lsd,new bearings for lsd,and had the transmission rebuilt with new synchros,hubs,etc.

nice how much for the 5spd?.....is there junkyard area up around here?
^I got the 5 speed from a salvage yard called J&B 17105 E Colonial Dr Orlando,FL 32820..I paid $500 for it,they have the transmissions already taken out for you so you can pick and go.
While the transmission was at the shop i took the entire dash out along with door panels and seats.Reason for this is because i was doing a full a/c delete from under the hood and under the dash!!Reason for door panels and seats will get to that later..Then i ran my new shifter cables through the firewall and installed my fidanza short shifter and Sparco nob.

did you take the whole box out?
What are you going to do about heat?
^^x2 florida has heat sometimes that you need deodorant on your balls....
I'm talking about heat when he's racing or whatever.
Well, I guess the vents in the hood should be sufficient.
