. I found most of the OEM parts and tranny from a guy on CL for $350 . Then getting performance parts while im at it like a short shifter, m3 clutch, aluminum flywheel, stainless steel clutch lines, upgraded diff and trans mounts. Fun stuff like that. I have a whole list haha. I need to ask my grandpa for the money since im broke, he said he would help me out a month ago. Hopefully he will still be down. Anyway, im looking to have this done by the blowneuros meet

Its not to bad. Only sucky part is Im doing it on a garage floor with jack standsOriginally posted by Average_Jerk View Post
Time is the only thing that really bothers me and the fact that ill have a 3.91 diff in a manual so ill be in 5th going 80 at 3k. Acceleration is going to be insane tho haha. Im excited to see the power im making, I dropped about $1500 into the engine last year on performance parts.

haha this whole transmission problem has been with me for like a year now. Ive gone through 2 automatic transmissions already within 6months. I just had the shits of it and want a car that I can get into and now worry about if its going to break. Every time I try to do this swap, something comes up money wise and it never falls through. I wont be excited until I have the check for $3,000 in my hand cashed and the parts at my house. Hopefully ill have the trans at my house this weekend and all my parts ordered.
