Great job, I once was close to doing this same thing, just couldn't bring myself to do this for basically the same car. Plus, my 04 is 6 speed. I may try synchomesh myself...I think something you'll want to consider is removing the slave cylinder checkvalve. That will make the car drive like a normal stick car...scary, but not hard to do and cannot be seen to void warranty.

or another thread that has more info from OPEL...the OG.

PS, my mother, in her late 50's had a 1999 Integra GSR 5 speed stick with the blade wheels and 55K miles on it up until it was stolen from her in 2008. I told her so too...prior to that, when I was a kid, a 1990 Civic SI...sold it for $1500 in 1999 because the AC started giving her trouble. I could have killed her...I wanted it.

The reason I love having the base ATLP so much is that, no one else that I know of has it on their Type S. It's kind of unique that way. Of course I love the quads, but unless I got a good enough offer.. Base it is.

I am curious though. What kind of 1/4 should I be able to accomplish with the 6 speed and with the exhaust on it?

So I'm curious. What should be done? In terms on maintenence? I want to keep this thing in the best condition I can. Also. Is there any sort of recall on the sway bars? I thought I heard something about the rear one doing something odd.
