    TheRevs 5spd Swap Thread!

    Hey guys, finally ive stopped buying BS parts to make my car look better and ive chosen the better route of going 5 speed. Ive read numerous posts about the swap, tutorials showing how to do it, and i have come across many parts lists of what i need. I will be updating this probably every day! So post your comments thanks guys!

    Parts i Have:
    FlyWheel: Will need Resurfacing 35$ JY
    Clutch Master Cylinder 25$ JY
    3g Shifter w/ leather boot 35$
    5spd Pedals: 40$
    Slave Cylinder: 30$
    Passanger Side Axel: 40$
    Clutch: EXEDY CLUTCH KIT 01-05 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SPYDER GT 3.0: $183

    Current Total: $388

    Parts I Need:
    -Manual 5 spd transmission (with tranny mount attached) (3g v6 eclipse)
    -Cylinder block plate
    shift linkage and cables(3g v6 eclipse)
    -2 new axle seals (3g v6 eclipse)


    Tips on finding the parts that i will need new Like The Axle Seals, The Shift Cables and Clutch ( anything else?) would be great! im guessing Mitsu Dealer? theres not one close :(

    Thanks Guys! Pics soon

    i got my cables from club3g, the TOB from mitsupartsdirect.com, the slave and master from rockauto.com, and the pedals and shifter assembly from mko. All I need is the trans itself and some miscellaneous things. but i have my girls prom coming up so im on a break from collecting parts til thats over..

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    thats a good place, to looks for the trans. but make sure to check your local yeards cuz some of them might not be listed on that site. also check craigslist often I see a lot of tranny's pop-up there.

    Funny though, when I see one i dont have the money for it, when I do have the money for it, it's a PITA to find one. lol

    so i found a trans locally for 400$. The only problem is that on the bottom there is a small chip in the rectangle area. Heres a pic, do you guys think it would be able to be welded up?

    better pic? from the underside?

    Yeah that would suck to get it and have a tranny leak, really take your time and examine it.

    Oh and about the axle seals,(tip from TJ) in all honesty if the seals look ok, dont worry about replacing, he said that they can be a bitch getting in because they have to fit near perfect and if you mess up youll have a leak. Just FYI.

    EDIT: Oh and yeah, hit me up if you need any advice or help, id be more then willing to help :) and please point out any real grey areas on my how to. I want that thread to really make the swap simple

    i been running a turbo clutch on my car since i cant even remember, mind you i do all the launches and stuff that most racers would do(lotta honda needed a lesson) but i also plan to be boosted this summer and since the clutch would already be in, it would save alot of time and headache.

    Not how fast your car goes but how good u drive going fast.
