well my car went under construction for a month ** july 16, 04

i bought a new clutch, and wanted to install it. so i was thinking, why not take out the whole motor and tans to clean every thing and put in a new clutch. while i was at it, i said y not just rebuild the transmission too.

here's the clutch kit

it took about 26 days to finish all this, but most of the problem was waiting on parts, and receving the wrong parts or not receving them at all. if i had every thing when i needed it, this whole prosses would've took 5-6 days.

here's the transmission

Hey man. Clean MX6. Not a fan on the scoop, but thank god you made it functional. That made up for my opinion on it. I plan on putting a small one on my mine just to vent out the heat. I was shocked at how hot it gets under that hood even with the heat shields still on the turbo. I plan to get back into modding after Spring time.
