- Sat May 08, 2010 2:52 pm #192561 So over the past few days ive been working on the car getting it ready for the track. I drove home from school (7 hours) and found an awesome deal on some 15 inch rims. My friend wants 40 bucks for em. Cant beat that. I also taught my girl how to drive stick in my car. She didnt do bad considering it has a stage 4 clutch and a 8 pound flywheel. But heres a pic of the car after i washed it.

- Thu May 27, 2010 10:49 pm #197287 Trans is in! :thumb: Bad news is that there is a leak from the case or an axle seal. I need new axles so putting in new seals wouldnt be an issue.

Another issue i am having is my shifter bushings are causing issues with shifting into fifth gear. I have ordered new ones and they are on their way.

Then the other night, someone shot my windshield with a bb gun and now i have a huge crack in my windshield. :x But that too is getting replaced on tuesday. Ill grab some pics of the trans in the car and the windshield tomorrow.
