5 speed V6, oh how I wish to join this TGC VIP Club someday...
Now the car has good power to backup its looks...it must be a sweet feeling.
just wondering too, what will it run the 1/4 in now? 15ish?
Any approximation on weight difference between the two transmissions?
about 75-100 pounds i would say, but could be more like 50-75Quote:

It's cool, I got your PM anyway. Nice work! Heh, I'm gonna catch up on you guys soon with my own swap! :twisted:
I can agree with that. The I4 trans and V6 trans use the same gears and even with mine revving to 8500, first gear is pretty useless.Quote:

either way, that sounds good, im gonna try getting a broken set of gears from one of the EVO guys just to do some sort of test fitting. i wouldnt use OEM EVO gears, however I know a company who makes longer EVO gears, all I really want is a longer 1st and 3rd gear
Nice work Frank. I can't wait to see this beast in person.
u jacked my shift knob and clutch! https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gif
one thing that needs a correction is that the 01 passenger side axle is like the 99-00 axles. the auto tranny axle is too long so u need the axle from the manual tranny.
i'm jealous u got the lsd. thats one thing i still need to get https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/smile.gif

I'm changing my shift knob again. I got a sick deal on the new MR one. I love this clutch, great minds think alike eh https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...fault/wink.gif.... I have the stage 2 though. The pedal is really really nice.
Interesting note on the axle. The other guy here with a v6 swap.. 8gV65spd didn't replace axles, although his donor car was an 03 V6 Eclipse. Gotta love Mitsubishi and its different year parts.
Definitely get the LSD. A world of difference.
