Sounds good E. Sounds like you will be out destroying tires again soon!

hopefully thats all i'll be destroying other than that little GSX with a t25 in it that said my car is slow.....

e give me a call I can lend a hand for a while on Friday.

Saturday Is Jenny's only day off this week. So I'm going to be spending the day with her and then heading to Rock Falls on Sunday.

Get that thing running and I'll give you some FWD competition ;)

Did Shep determine what had happened since the prior rebuild?

Like i said Ican help too.

LOL

yes 95 trany and 99 trany had differences and couldn't share rails/forks/gears.

If everyone is looking to work on cars this weekend, I have two dsms that need work. One will not stay running and the other will not shift ;)

How much is it to ship one of those things back and forth, anyway?

it was 80 on the way back, and 45 on the way out.

so total of 125


but generaly it costs 80 both ways.. i just lucked out by breaking their scale when i was sending it out ;)

-E

You sure that was a shipping facility that you visited?

yes i am sure..

by the way it just got droped off at home!!! YAAY... now its a challenge stayin here for the next 1 1/2 hours.. :(

How did it go?

imposible to do it by myself..

there was two weddings so most of my friends were busy this weekend.. and the few that owe me favors had other stuff going on..

but i figure i'd take the time and take the flywheel to the red rooster to instpect the step, if its not right then i'll have them re-do the work.

other than that.. it was a busy weekend and not productive.

the trany is in, the oil is filled.. will finish the small things tomorow morning and fire it up.
since i upgraded injectors and fpr i will have to get it re-tuned

-E

Done.. its in, fired it up the trany felt very nice but i felt vibration thru it more than i did before.. i don't know why.. i will double check all bolts tomorow after driving it around the block few times it got hot enough not for me to go under the hood again..
overall i'm happy with the trany especially since there is no oil leaks yet. well see tomorow morning.

taken around the block..
got a shower..
and back into the garage..
geting stereo taken out tomorow and all speakers.
rewiring some wires..
Geting QPR's cold air intake and lower IC piping hopefully next week
and geting it tuned after that.

that it for this year.. maybe that vis hood if its cheaper.. ;)
-e

So let me get this straight. You finish right before winter, now youll probably store it all winter and wait till next year to drive it? Or will you drive it for a couple months and maybe hit the track one more? ;)

Also why did you take the stereo out? too heavey or what :)

Thanx to the guys that helped me do the hard part of throwing the trany back in!
