Yeah, my bro said to me tonight "hey why dont you put this thing on for me tonight I gotta go to work"

so he took the geo and I got the Pro 5 up on jackstands
Took one look at the bushing, yeah no problem
14mm wrench should do the trick, go to go get the wrench and my wrench set goes from 13mm to 15 :confused: , so I bust out the socket set, 14mm, bolt is so long I cant get the damn socket over the nut :mad: , so i bustout the adjustable and start my work, yeah the outside of that nut stripped faster than a ***** at a batchelor party, I got a better grip on the nut and insted of the nut coming off, the whole stud started unscrewing from the tranny, at this point I was starting to get worried that I was going to seriously f*** up my brothers car, I got the stud off the tranny and then the damn nut comes off nice and easy, so I put the stud back in poped out the old bushing, lubed the nessesary parts and the rest popped back together, it was kind of a b**** using the torque wrench under the car though because it was only a foot off the ground.

but all in all it was pretty easy and it took 30 minutes (minus the time it took to jack up and lower the car)

after the install I decided I'de deliver the car to my bro at his place of work

damn, it felt nice, very very tight, smooth, and damn his car is a hell of alot faster than what I'm used to
damn I love 5 speeds, the zoom zoom sticker in the window got me pumped, shifted at 6500 through every gear, then I had to slow down because I didnt feel like rearending a minivan in my brothers car

I love it, I would definatley recomend geting the shift bushing, the car just shifts better, its hard to explain, it just does

I need to get me a P5
