Alright guys, I figured I would let you guys watch as I take my 89 gxl to new levels.

 

Here are a few more pics. The guy pissing on my car is one of those guys that drives a honda. Damn haters. The red car in the storage room is an 87 turbo II that im robing from(my parts car) I know your like"why the hell! well, I ordered the wrong engine because the guys said it would work. Dammit, so I got the gxl with a bad rotor and decided to give it a secound chance at life). In the pics I am installing my clutch type turbo II rear end. Now I see why you cant run the n/a driveshaft. Damn thing is a tooth pick next to the turbo. To change out the rear ends you will need a 15mm, 14mm, 17mm, a 13/16 because my mm tool selection is minimal, a half in drive ratchet, and a few other tools I cant remember off the top of my head. First I took off the rear sway bar. Then disconnected the brakes, driveshaft, struts, ebrake cables, etc. Then I took out the 4 mounting points for the diff and the frame. Plop. It was out. Putting it back in was a breeze after the three attempts that were unsuccesful. The only real hang up I had was I couldnt get all the bolts to line up for the 4 mounting points. If you look at the picture out the rear end where the diff hooks into the driveshaft, there are a few bolts that you HAVE to take loose/out to get the 4 mounting points to line up. I will take some up close pics of this next time I work on my car so that noone who looks at this thread will ever have to go through what I went through. Stay tuned people. Soon to come is my jdm turbo engine/ tranny install. I already installed the OS Giken super single clutch and flywheel with the act counter so I dont have any pics, but if anyone needs any info on clutch installs, hit me up.
