Subframe is dropped off at PowderKeg to get coated.
Picked up the trans today.

New chinese special eGay rear rotors showed up today. Slotted / zinc plated. Not too bad for $79 shipped :D
And since I know someone is going to ask, I did not buy these because they were slotted. I bought them because they were zinc coated. If I could have found blank/solid zinc coated ones for a reasonable price I would have chosen those. I plan on getting these same ones for the front as well.

Nice Ive been looking at zinc plated roaters ever since you posted about them before. That day I looked at mine and the hats were totaly rusty I think if nothing else it would be worth the zinc coating to prevent that.

Yep, that's pretty much why I wanted zinc.

that transmission looks pretty beefy, looks very similar to a STi 6speed, minus the front diff. how much does it weigh do you think?

No idea on a number, but definitely more than your standard dsm awd trans. I was still able to load/unload it from the truck by myself, but it wasn't easy.

i know the STi 6speed in around 100lbs more than a wrx 5speed, hopefully it doesnt have any issues putting down the power you want like i said it looks big and stout

If SP can push 1200hp through theirs with several drag passes & dyno pulls, then I think it'll handle anything my little 61mm dishes out.

Don't act like you aren't a beefcake! :sport017:
