you aren't disagreeing with me. i never said that it was easy, but that it wasn't that big of a deal. it's already a beaten path so the details have already been sorted out. there is no guess work.
the auto diff is geared different. it's a matter of taste whether you want to use it or not...
first, other than the 99-spec fogs, i don't see what makes it so jdm. that is just splitting hairs on the ad though. nothing to you at all.
auto FD's are/were very common, so it is very common to make the swap for a manual trans. there are many write-ups on it if you look around, so if you are...

what's the Houston crowd going to look like? i will be heading out the Friday night before the meet. found a few hotels in the area also.
there's the austin crew now. it's going to be big, i think. three sisters is a fun run. i need to tune up the car to handle the twistys a little better.
that's the rumor. they haven't gotten an exact date, but i just reminded them that there are plans in houston from april 2-4. not sure of any exact details, but you will definitely want to get out there a day early. the scenery is AWESOME late morning. i know a handful of people in the texas...
