That is what I love about Kansas, no emissions testing and I can run around on open headers without worry. Pretty handy to be able to drive the Volvo to the exhaust shop instead of towing it to get my 3" downpipe back made.

I used the eBay precut tint kit. Paid like $27 bucks. The kit is ok. I honestly gonna get it professionally done. I wanted tint and didn't wanna spend the big bucks and it served its purpose.

Time for a manual swap! LOL. The auto tranny did well and now you all can gauge its limits.
Started feeling vibration and odd noises transmission side this evening. So no boost till after the swap and it should last till then. All i need is the transaxle/mount/clutch master to slave line/clutch and flywheel.

Well I guess that's good news. I was thinking of doing the same since the motor will be out of the car already.

I will vote nay on precuts. I hate air bubbles (not cuz pre cuts but cuz i aint no pro at tinting so they'll show) and spots that don't get covered.


As for tickets in cali CHP is the most strict. My way around it is, I have to front windows with no tint that I swap in to get the ticket signed off, then swap the windows back. Takes me 10 minutes and the fix it is only 25 bucks compared to 50 dollar retint every time.

Cool, sounds like the 4 banger auto is tougher then the V6, mine blew up from spirited driving with a stock V6, the auto's just don't hold up.

[Ivory8g]

yep thats for sure because ive heard multiple stories of the v6 autotragic blowin up under normal driving conditions lol!

Yeah have a GTZ came to the shop over a year ago on a tow truck with the trans not shifting, pull a code for a TC and output VSS. The I4 is different, can hold about 350lb/ft with an 7" oil cooler and a slightly higher line pressure.

[Ivory8g]

Lol I'm making roughly 350 wtq corrected. Definitely the limit.

My second box blew up in under 10k miles, it was pretty pathetic.

For some reason I have a habit of blowing up automatics, ironically the only one that has lasted is the one in my Dodge truck. I'm still trying to figure out that one....

I have a spare clutch line. Full from the master to slave. I'll sell it to u if u want.

I don't have any bubbles in my windows. The back was a pita to shrink to the window. I did mess up the corner but not too bad. It takes lots of time if u take your time with it. But I will never do it again.

Just buy yourself a 3an ss line and some fittings and call it a day. That's what I did. Looks so much better.

Think everyone is right about the v6 autos..been in that boat myself, not long after I bought my car. Got it rebuilt, well over 50k since and still good. But iirc v6 auto hondas/acuras seemed to be cursed too..at least like early 2000 and older models

Lack of maintenance(i.e. fluid exchange/flush) and no apparent tranny oil filter. You will notice the newer trannies have an inline filter and runs a more stable trans fluid(more additives)
