[Jeffylou87]

Roughly 1K. I upgraded everything I could while the car was apart. Fidanza flywheel, short shifter, base bushings, cable bushings, exedy clutch kit, etc.

[Galantfan88]

Same here I would say I spent about 1,300.00 cuz it came with everything that I needed and that includes ACT clutch and a Fidanza flywheel from Roman, which was funny cuz it looked like we were doing a drug deal...dark alley way with him taking something out of the trunk and me handing him the money.lol

you can see what else I've spent money on :)

[Stewi]

Man I did this a longggggggggg time ago....

The first G I spent around $1200 on all the parts, I cant remember the breakdown.

The second G I spent substantially less because I bought two complete 5 speed swaps from the same junkyard, one set for me, one for XD_01 and it was like $1600 total with shipping. So I only paid half since we split it......

[Exhaust power]

lets see i went to the jy and pulled every thing yes every thing except the flywheel for 180. bought eclipes fly/clutch set for a 110 then bout a sonta fly wheel for 100.

about $400 total after not including the fluids. should be $250-300 after i sell the eclipes set.

Ill be adding in this thread hopefully. I got about 1700 to put in my car right now. If I can get the manual swap and my evo 8 ecu wired in for that much I will be happy. Then I just need to finish accumulating turbo parts and I am ready for tune.

[bsilver23]

^Yes! that sounds like fun

[03-Galant-ES]

^Yes! that sounds like fun

my turbo and exhaust parts are sitting in my room screaming use us! Its so hard having a 3'' magnaflow sitting in your room and not buying the rest of the parts to install it >.<

[bsilver23]
