where'd you get your jackstands? Mines started to tip using my own body strength when I was trying to pop out my driver side axle. I guess I'm stronger than your engine and put out 0 pollution

No, see the car is on jackstands in the front AND chained to a tank (like you don't have access to a tank) at the front as well, and the burnout is in reverse...Chilton manual lists this at about a 3hr job but you have to get high on crack first.

sorry about the invalid post. If someone did this for real, where would you put the exhaust to make room for the drive shaft. If you move it to one side you would think that it would scrape the ground.

the gains are phenomenal with the single stage USDM 4th gen IM.

When staying RWD, everything stays the same except the shifter sits a little more to the right, at least that's what I noticed in my 03 max, trickiest part is getting the accessory fan to not chop up the coolant lines.

But my timing belt broke and that's my new project .. like deezo said leather belts

LMK if anyone knows of where to get them.

I had SR20 build me a reversed plenum to keep it from hitting the firewall, but other than that everything went on smoothly. The power all around is really great, but I do which I could have tried using the USDM 4th gen because the power up top on those is crazy

The shifter sits slightly in the same position as a stang with it leaning over slightly, but nothing to get used to. I may swap to some gator belts to keep them from squealing.

Thanks for all the help people. The timing belt is really driving me nuts. I went on FreshAlloy and they told me to try pouring some MysteryOil inside the timing cover. I'm gonna try it in a few mins... WISH US LUCK!!!!!!
