    I has a 5spd

    Well its done, and it runs like a bandit. It needs a tune bad though. I haven't hooked up the reverse lights but thats no biggie. Pics and videos will come, but none yet tonight. As far as I know this is the first 5spd 8th gen in kansas and all bordering states. But yeah, it kicks some serious ass.

    Damn its crazy, 7G and 8G 5spders alike. Now tell we the galant doesnt have potential, especially when you in the nice 3rd gear powerband :).

    welcome to the club man! nice going, like it was said before, polyurethane motor mounts and now all you need is the ingalls engine damper. thats next on my list along with the spec stage 2 clutch. this 74 loves the 5spd, its a perfect match!
