hopefully in a few days i can get my car prep for paint. In the pictures you wont be able to see it but it has a light brown square on the hood looks like they burnt it and the rear end is pushed in trunk floor is crushed. hopefully i can get this done in time for acurafest if not ill just wait till the spring to get the wheels on. after paint ill be getting the brakes done. good thing i didnt sell my rl calipers think it would've saved my last car if i had those nice calipers on.

Bad news guys I'm not going to keep the 6 speed so its up forsale I just got a new job and I won't have time for the swap. The motor and everything is out of my old car I'm trying to sell it as a complete check the black market. I plan on just daily driving it putting the money for an oddy tranny or tl tranny. As for now I'm stuck and need the money.

now that i know how the swap is done, i can finish the whole conversion in about 2-3 days. Just need to have both cars side by side and all the right tools. So if you really want to, take a couple days off plus the weekend and you can have the car running.

and you can make about 2500-3000 back from all the parts you will have left over to sell after the swap. So definitely go for it.
