God damn, I already follow you on IG and thought I saw everything...boy was I wrong lol. That tranny looks beast. Sickest build on here so far! I cant wait to see more updates to this.
This is coming together nicely - good luck finishing it up
Thank you!

Hey! how do you like the exhaust? My new exhaust plans have to remain secret till I finish the car! I don't want people to steal my idea ahaha but I can tell you it'll be quite unique and exotic looking . You're right I don't post much on my instagram, heck even here I don't really post everything lol.
***UPDATE***
I might be selling the transmission and get a custom T56 with a longer tail shaft from Tranzilla. Otherwise, I could simply buy a shifter extension kit (like Sikky's) but I'm not 100% sure I like this idea... maybe some of you could chime in on this?!
Also cutting the firewall in order to bring the engine/transmission higher and get rid of the subframe spacers I currently have in place right now.
In the meantime, the car is sitting at the bodyshop and getting new aero made.
Wow I did not know you had a build thread on here & doing a 20b! I follow you on Instagram haha man this look saucy already! I sent you a PM about those air cups wanted to do a slam setup next year since my car is down as well.

i think you can still use the tranny you have you just need to put the tail of an f body/gto tranny and it should sit in the factory location i know they are for sale on eBay
What size and offset are you running on the rear with the charge speed fender overs? They only look like +25mm flares, but I see referenced to 12"+ rims...
As for an update... I don't have much to show you atm.
We banged the transmission tunnel a bit in order to be able to remove the subframe spacers we had in place before. I hate posting pic of the car in this state lol... just know that the car will be getting a fresh paint job inside/out once everything is said and done.
Also here's a little preview of the diffuser I'm getting made and the exhaust idea I'd like to go with. Posting some progress pics... looks a bit different and better now. Sides were extended to hang a bit lower, made some modification to the center section's shape. Will post more pics of it once it's done and in carbon!
Different is definitely one of my goals for this car. FD kits currently on the market are all either played out, too aggressive for a street car or simply not all that great imo.
I plan to keep the OEM fuel tank, the exhaust is going to be made out of titanium, which stays considerably cooler than stainless, build an heat shield and tuck the pipe as far as possible.
Also, I might have pics of the diffuser as it looks now and some of the body kit to post by the end of this week
