dude... wtf ... when did you do that??? lol how did the intercooler fit behind our bumper?? any cutting?

 

[Protege2K]

If I remember right, he completely removed the reinforcement bar so there is nothing but room now.

 

[Shane5425]

you have to remove that anyways for the bumper

 

[MIA protege]

there was a lil bit of trimming involved ... let me find the best pics showing that
got my car back thursday

 

[Protege2K]

Your grille man, it goes straight across...

It sounds like you are talking about the intercooler. It's not a grill.

no, he is talkin about the upper part of the bumper, on a stock bumper you can remove the upper half .. the section with the symbol in it.. on a erebuni front end it is all one piece..

2000 ????????????? holy hell ... i think ill go with the manual tranny for 200 bucks on ebay and then have someone put it in ... im sure it will be cheaper than 2k and would be able to hold bout 290whp

 

[Shane5425]

if you want to buy the clutch kit its only 400.. but remember for a tranny swap, you need the tranny, flywheel , clutch, wireing harness, ecu, clutch master, clutch slave cylinder, pedal , and i am sure i am missing a thing or 2, best bet to swap tranny is to find a donar car..

 

[MIA protege]

ahhh ... i dont know what im doing, s*** is getting complicated lol

 

[Shane5425]

lol.. easiest solution is stake out a junk yard for a 00 99 protege lx/dx 5 speed that was wrecked.. you can pick that kind of car up for fairly cheap..
