Default Auto to manual swap, DONE!!!!

Hey everyone, I finished the swap last friday but lagged on getting my write up done. Lots of spelling errors but it will have to do.

Just want to give thanks to everyone on this board that gave me the answers I needed during the process. And thanks to eda6 for finding me some new mounts in a pinch.

The car kicks *** now, I can actually go up hills without slowing down and rev the d15b2 :-) I ended up putting in a Si tranny with Si diff and ZC gears. Not the best for the freeway but its a lot of fun around town.

Yeah the hybrid with the 8lb flywheel is a good match. I'm really happy with my little d15b2. I'll probably hold off on getting the ZC now and concentrate on suspension.. (and mpfi next month)

Thats a great writeup. Although I don't quite understand the part about the rear mount.
