Ok guys I got my car working like two days ago. The tranny feels amazing bathe gear oil makes it shift like butter. the LSD is so good on turns. The clutch and fly wheel make it feel way better and a bit faster. I will take a video soon but,My main focus is geting all my bars painted. Then get new front fenders and re-cut the fenders and make them line up better and get car painted. I hope I can get all this don before wekfest but we will see.

Ok well guys here is an up date. My clutch, fly wheel, 5th gear and LSD are great. Totally feel the difference on turns and when I hit 2500 rpm it shoots up way faster because of the fly wheel the car drives better then ever. I also just installed a protege garage adjuable short shift and got welded to the hight I like. The only bad thing about the new mods are when I lontch from a stop I have to rev higher cause of the fly wheel. I also feel like I lost a little tq. Also 5th gear when I am in it and try to exelerate it's not as pepy but I get alot better gas milage that's fine. But another then that everything feels good. I will try to take a video I am just so busy. I am trying to find a shop that will match the color of my new wheel

When you de-badged your trunk, how did you get rid of the holes that held the emblems in place?

 

[rar40941]

It's just double stick tape and silver sharpy lol so it matches a bit
