Looking really good there O.D
that looks alot beter :D keep us updated
keep updating!
well this isnt really a good update, but i pulled off my rear bumper, found the area around the plate is gone all shitty, found siliconed rust around seals (common on the cars i end up with)
the sucky thing was having to jack up the back of the car & take the wheels off just to get at the damn bumper screws :@

i got the tranny out and decided that it was such a bitch removing one let alone installing one, so im gonna remove the engine to bolt on the tranny, and the engine is well over due for a nice good clean anyway.. so yeah, i started removing shit to make it easier..
http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...3449Medium.jpg
dont ask how the coolant ended up on the valve cover, i myself am still puzzled how that happened
http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...3456Medium.jpg

Looks good. Getting the tranny back up is easier IMO than getting it down. It was for me at least.
^your probably right, but i guess since i came this far i might as well continue... its all ready to come out now, just have to get it out now :P might hire out a engine hoist, dunno yet
http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s...3483Medium.jpg

pimp
thanks :)
and yeah its going now, clutch feels weak as shit, might just need adjusting, but its good enough to stall the car when its dropped out, so thats a good thing at least, also makes a funny brushing sound with the clutch in :huh:
the shitty part was it took me like 2 hours to figure out why it wouldnt crank, which was because i didnt short the starting wires from the auto shifter (lol) and another 4 hours to realize i had the spark plug leads around the wrong way
pix!!!!!!!1111!11!!!!111
that funny brushing sound is your throwout bearing. It could be going becasue whoever used the trans before you left the clutch in at stops instead of putting it in neutral
^damn
coming soon :)Quote:
