Stance noob GTO build

A few things came in the mail today.

So I got "spider" style led's to have a neat look in the headlights. They will either look really cool or really tacky...



My first license plate frame came in cracked so jdmego sent me another it came in today... And it was wedged in my mail box, luckily it was not broken.



Also my sowo hype had me make a purchase the other night:

I agree, it shouldn't be that bad, your car probably has all the wiring for both auto and manual. Source a t56 and clutch things, pedal, shift linkage and maybe a driveshaft then have it reprogrammed by a tuner shop should be pretty easy. If your auto things are good your trans and stuff should be worth something to offset the cost of the t56.

A 4l60 with as many miles as mine is not worth much at all :/ I would love it though

Wiring shouldn't be a problem. There are usually only few differences in manual and automatic wiring. I've done the job for few GTO's european sisters, Opel Omegas. First you need to jump wire the safe start so car is tricked to think that it's in P or N. Some ecus and on-board computers need to be reprogrammed. Cruise control needs switch for clutch pedal and that's about it.

Yeah I have looked into it. It is a whole lot of work, if the car didn't have the chassis work already done I would be best to sell it and buy another car as everything is fairly expensive and from what I was told basically the whole wiring harness needs swapped over from a manual car :/

This looks nasty on the CCW's, wish I was able to go to SoWo to see it! Random question, does it being automatic get old? Not sure if a manual-swap is something you'd ever considered

Just read through this whole thread, I love Goats. Best one I've seen. Sub'd too.

Thanks!!! I appreciate it. I posted the pictures of it on the CCW's on a GTO forum earlier this week... After being told to kill myself 15 times I was almost questioning the set up
