I've been playing with this setup for about six months now, and as soon as my bearings and seals kit and lsd block come in, she's coming back apart again!

I'm still learning about the car stuff - Jarrod is my go to guy for projects I'm still scared of, but this tranny will be all me! Of course I'll ask for help to throw it in. If you've seen the clutch in my Picasa, that's him putting it on.

It's a good time, and so far I've only had a few big setbacks (that damn 3 wire iac was a big one for me) like finding the right ecu for my setup. I bought one on eBay chipped and had it Street tuned, but nothing made this car go like the current 37820 p2j-j62 (jdm cvt 3 stage vtec)!

I'm just Damn stubborn. Once I learned what I had, I had to make it sing!

And in the chase for the best of both worlds of performance and mpgs, I found myself in PA.

YOU CAN DO IT!

hell, now I want to turbo the other motor and build the Old lady something!
