2 TURBO AUTOS in ATL going to the darkside! Hahaah!! That will make it FOUR 5spd TURBO maximas all within 30mins of each other. Talk about terrorizing the streets soon.

How much is it going to cost? Well it all depends, what type of clutch, flywheel, doing LSD or not?, buying new parts or used parts? Im buying everything new from DaveB except the tranny and driveaxel. My swap is pushing near 2000.

LOL...no need to play coy with the name. We all know of whom you speak.

Bags, you're the man. I'd love to do a 6 speed swap, but I think the built auto (while more expensive) will be the way for me to go with it's 3 year-I can blow it up on purpose-warranty (NRH). Plus, my wife is still going to drive the car at least 3 days out of the week Imagine a built VQ35DE-T with race auto tranny...with a woman behind the wheel

Putting the car up for the winter.
oh well, we cant get mad, atleast your putting it up on blocks for the suspension and tires sake.



good to see kirk! I didn't catch if you did anything to the tranny though. I would imagine its atleast a factory LSD though. Make's me want to move down there so I can help out with stuff like this. Soon there isnt going to be anything left to change on your cars (except engines -heh ). Did ya get a Fidanza?

yay for bleeding clutch/brakes
The break in is hard, I got on mine a few times when I shouldn't have. I just passed 500 miles yesterday, 650miles today
