well guys i have finally bought my new clutch kit......
i bought the ACT 2100 clutch kit for $250 shipped brand new

The next think i will be doing is rebuilding the engine, in the next couple of days i will start to put the clutch in and the pedals in and running the clutch lines throught the firewall and then in a week or two i will be putting the engine and 5 speed tranny in

Guys i have a question?????

I decided to take out the engine that was in my burgandy G and put the white manual engine and transmission in my burgandy G. I will have the white G engine rebuilt and i will be putting a ACT 2100 Clutch kit in the manual tranny. I will not have any problems in regards to turning on the car when i am done since its the same engine.

if they're both 7G 4g64s, you should be fine for the most part. actually what year are both of them? they might have different ecus.

**Joaltava** · 09-25-2005, 05:08 PM

They are both 96, my brother just finished putting my old 96 Burgundy G engine into his new 95 black G, we had some problems thou the starter, and the distributor where different from the 95 to the 96.

We finally figure that out and we switched it and the car now runs perfect, she shifts smooth and has a killer a/c.

In total we spend including the car $968.74

isnt your white G a GS? then that engine is a DOHC, it should fit but i dont know what you would want to do that.

Well I have a white GS, but i had bought a 96 White S 5speed of a guy here on TGC for $500 dollars,
Here's a pic of the white car i got for $500 dollars

the car was crashed in the back and thats the G that i got the 5 speed tranny off and the engine i gave my bro so he can put in the black 95 G

**Joaltava** · 11-05-2005, 10:48 PM

Well Ladies and Gents

Today me and my bro finally finished putting the working engine into the black galant he bought with the blown engine.

Man she is running sweet i will see if i take a pic of the engine and show you guys

Guys i have a small problem with my shifter

**Joaltava** · 11-24-2005, 09:53 AM

Guys i have a small problem with my shifter

For some reason i cant put the shifter towards 1st gear or the position where first gear would go.
Here is a pic where it shows the problem, its marked by the red circle.

Here's a pic of the shifter assembly

If i assemble the shifter it stays up in the middle and you can shift down but not upward.

I thought I was going to have that problem too, did the same thing without cables. Just mount the cables to the shifter assembly and it should shift into gear without hitting that arm. You dont have the center cable anchored to teh assembly yet.

Yeah i had it anchored but when i saw that it hit i took it out and then took a picture of the assembly.

So all i have to do is put all the conections in and it should work just fine

**bronxbombr** · 11-25-2005, 02:40 PM

ya, happened to me too, right before i put the shifter in i noticed the same thing.

**Blue Ice** · 11-25-2005, 10:51 PM

i noticed the same thng, i haven't done the swap yet, but when i put in my short shifter into my shift assmbly, i noticed that i seem to hit the back part, but when i looked at the other end where the tranny would be, the cable boot was completely compressed. so i figured it wouldn't need to go all the way back to be in first.
