rear mount first. put a light film of grease on the sides of the rear mount if you want, to make it move easier. Driver mount last, as it is usually the easiest.

Any of you local guys have a ZC hood for sale or trade? My cousin would like to pick one up and I am looking for the R and L front bulkhead pieces.

and after persuasion by my daughter, I have decided not to give up on the ole honda just yet. Hopefully it will be back to looking like a car sometime soon.

I'm just getting to be grouchy and old...

whats good shape??

Whan buying a transmission used always take in consideration purchasing a new 3rd gear syncro, unless they have installed it in there car. But i would say even if they have it wouldn't hurt to purchase one.

Also whats the tranny sticker code on it
y1, s1, j1 or ys1

The tranny isnt in a car so its hard to really tell much about it... for me that is. But he said that there are no grinds and he would be able to shift through the gears for me so I can hear them. The tranny is a S1. I really dont know much about the codes, as far as if any are better then the others. I know I used to have a ys1 and well...its no longer any good.
But basically he is asking 280 for it....Im trying to low ball the hell out of him though. He started at 350. I am hoping to get it for 260. Let me know guys...I gotta have something.

some updates... Mounted the wheels for some photos, pulled the front suspension, installed skunk2 camber kit. Finished the fuel lines up in the car and clean up the tuck waiting on some loom but its getting there. Made some carbon plugs for the firelwall. Also the sound deadening was a pita, got most of it up
