5spd vs auto 1/4 times...

[galant_got_speed]

Im looking on www.car-part.com for parts and they all seem to be the same price as the V6 stuff? i thought theyd be a bit cheaper for the I4? either way i could prob get all the stuff for like 1300 as you said, makes me feel a whole lot better about the whole thing...

Without checking prices it looks like you spent a hell of alot more on the flywheel and the clutch kit.

no u didnt, we never did it off the line, last time we started at like 80 and of course urs is gonna pull harder in 5th, but if it was 1/4... then i would win

Clutch kit isnt that expensive, about normal on an ACT 2600 kit. The flywheel is expensive though, did you get the aluminum? I have the ACT Streetlite flywheel which is a chrome-moly steel flywheel weighing 11lbs cost me $250. I know the aluminum flywheels weigh like 7 or 8lbs but those are just too fragile for my likings.

And galant_go_speed, just shop around, buy parts one at a time. Shop on eBay, local junkyards. If you have a U-Wrench-it or Pick-n-pull in your area, I HIGHLY suggest checking them out. This weekend they are having a 1/2 off sale on everything. Engines starting at $49.99, transmission starting at $29.99, its a sweet deal. I snagged a 5spd trans out a 7g for $49.99 on new years day.

Mitsubishi liquid gasket is not neccesary if you don't crack the case open, I suggest not doing it. Also, if your transmission does not come with the flywheel and clutch you will need to buy those as well.

You cant compare his prices to 4 cylinder part prices, he has a V6, V6 flywheels and clutch's are always more $$$, especially fidanza, because its aluminum.

As far as 1/4 mile times. I had my stock 8g with a 5speed, no mods except for an ebay short ram intake, a slipping clutch and a vacuum leak.

I went 17.7, I dont remember the MPH, that was on stock nearly bald tires too. I never got a chance to take it to the track when it was an auto.
