I don't know how he did it, but that's what he said haha. It was on some random thread on CL lmao
But I think a little window cut in the tunnel from the interior would be the best thing haha. Have like a little door you take off and boom, the starter is right there!

dont see how that would help because the starter is at the top rear of the engine. transmission is literally in the fucking way. dropping driveshaft will do nothing. the only other (sane) way is to remove the intake manifold.
then again if its a drift slut and you're all in for some FUUUUCKEEETT, remove the plastic shifter BS and cut the trans tunnel . then you got a little access window and you can do it all from inside the car hahaha

I heard of one guy who was just able to disconnect the driveshaft and reach it from behind... but still a monster job

gotta yank the whole intake manifold to do the starter. shits impossible to do otherwise unless you wanna drop the transmission.

Ill call the guy and see if hes willing to haggle. i refuse to pay more then 1000. fuck outta here. thats like 12-13 hours worth of work with hand tools in the driveway. MAYBE 6 hrs in a shop with air tools.

And that's that. She was junked yesterday. Really sad it had to come down to this. Lowlife scrubs not wanting to pay what it was worth even in a part out and lack of time forced my hand. Oh well. Someone gonna get a big surprise when they see how fresh that engine is. Gem yard pull. Oh well. Let me get situated in the PNW and I'll be back with another project soon enough. It's been fun guys. Coils still up for sale. 500+shipping /paypal
