I was told to post a thread on here about a FD install. Asking we todd if he can do install of a FD on a GSR ?

 

i'm not going to say names, but there is a HT member who will travel and perform installs for the right price...

 

Based on where you are located I can think of 2-3 we todds that coudl do it for some copensation.

do we have the drop the tranny, or can you?

I ask because we all hate dropping the tranny. otherwise, Assdime and I can do it for the right price (we no longer work for , sorry guys). It'll still be cheaper than shops though. Not a bad time to do other minor work too, rear motor mounts, header, etc, etc...

 

I'm thinking of throwing another BBQ at my house soon. Last time, 2 FD installs were done

ATS are the official WTDR FD of choice.

The JDM FD isn't all that bad either, but you already have GSR gearing so RPMs @ 80 wont be all that horrible with the ATS 4.9. You have a VAFC? Might want to raise VTEC xover a little (good thing to do anyways)

edit: n/m just saw your sig with Hondata written in it

Hahaha... well I hope you all bring lots and lots of sheets of plywood and 2x4's if you want to ride the mini... its still being built

What do you consider a mechanic?

 

If you consider a few guys with no shirts, no shoes, and no beer or liquor bottle left unmolested working on Hondas to be mechanics, then yes, they are mechanics.

He lives!

Happy fathers day ken-geeeeeeee. I still have a fathers day gift for ya (40oz oe )

Mechanics? we are not ASE certified and have only done a "few" FDs.. at least two of which are local to you...

 

Damn man looks like I'm gonna have to learn how to skate, because the P2 definately isn't gonna be able to handle those transitions

 

skateboarding at Craig's when?

Marc ---&gt; who was never good at skating, but will still drop in the vert ramp to bust his nuts

 

Speaking of this, any we-todd's around the ATL area think they could help me with a clutch, possibly flywheel on my M3? From what I hear, the tranny is WAY WAY easier to take down than a Honda(6 bolts and the driveshaft is off).

I keep thinking my clutch is going south, so I might need to replace it in about 10k miles or so. Would hate to have to pay some BMW mechanic $500 to install my $240 clutch assembly. All I'm missing is a place to do the work, and the comfort that I'll actually know what to do when I get up in the tranny! Otherwise, I've done all the work on my car up to this point(all maintence, suspension work, shifter - blah blah the easy stuff).
