Tuan your car is ready. all you need is the stick shift bushing. It really wont work worth a damn with out it. Also all I have to do thats left is bleed the system and it will be done. So can you get the part? Just call the dealer and ask for the stick shift bushing kit. Thanks Trying to get it done so you can drive it to the meet tomorrow. The old trans didnt have the bushing either. Im wondering if that was the cause of your not being about to shift properly??? Anyways the new trans is in.
Ok now from what I know now, Which aint much. I retried to move the clutch again on tuans car. It leads me to believe the clutch is stuck the pilot bearing or the throw out bearing is tweaked.. So back in the air. I got a piece of wooden dowl rod the same size of the trans hole where the bushing sits and tried to shift it again. Grind grind grind and nothing... Now I know where the name stick shifter comes from literaly. Ill post a pic later.

lol, decided to show the car at night sessions this saturday.
Installed PFC, Runs much smoother, actually idles(kept dying when not moving and hitting the brake with the stock ecu) , no 3k rpm stutter.
Fixed left turn signal, the plastic switch was broken, now it works great.
Things left,
Get front brakes to work (getting steel braided lines and re bleed )
Get headlights to work.
Was throwing coolant before...but not anymore?

We go where only the crazy people go. onto the deep blue sea in the bay on a boat, I can tell you where to fish if you want to catch on land if you dont have a boat. let me know pm me for more fishin details.
Like i said, go where the beaners go, they know something.
I got the sake bomb ss brake lines. Put them on today, now i gotta bleed the lines again.
If the brake recall hasn't done, would that cause my brakes not to work? One thing i noticed today was if I rev the motor and pump the brake, it becomes stiff for a lil, then it goes away. I can pump all day when the motor isn't reving and nothing.

Now thats just wrong!! Whats wrong with beaners??? And you know that,being stranded is just so you can finish all the beer!!! Now thats fishing!!. Did I miss something?? What happend to ur old bumper and lights???I just picked mine up over ther weekend. waiting on Chuck to give it the thumbs up. I got the greensheet ready so I can tag and title. Still needs a paint job BAD. But I may be able to, enjoy it a little for now. Took some pics after unloading it of trailer, I'll post later...
