srt-4 is only a 5 speed.....they never made a 6 speed

i plan on pulling down the boot....i was thinking of it when i put it on and realized that i didnt like how the boot looked, i was thinking of painting the handle red....but probally not

the clutch is just a stage 1.....got it from ebay, 220.00 shipped so i thought it sounded like a good idea

i like the shift **** and it isnt like the one that MPX sells that looks like the srt4 **** but has the set screw, the actual srt4 **** is a push on and has a retaining clip in it...but it only took a minuite to grind a flat spot on the handle and then cut a little groove in it

i will put up more pics tonite because i hope to have most of the motor back together, then start on the rest of the turbo and gauges

I have been doing so much reading on the RSX Type-S swap into a plain RSX and kept reading about the 6-spd tranny they have. It kind of just stuck with me, I guess.

which large detail?????

if i can get the **** off of there i will take a pic and show you....but i didnt modify the ****, just the handle....first i had to grind the front of the handle flat...then i took a dremel and cut i little groove in the top front of the handle about 1/8th inch from the top......though it took a couple tries to get the notch right where it needed to be

the **** is on there pretty tight now, i put it on for a trial and had to almost beat it off with a hammer

ok i got some more pics today...
one is of how much room i have between the turbo and the firewall..
there is another of the motor as its been assembled a little more....
one of the front bumper again, but with the intercooler lowered a bit
and the gauge pod after i installed it and painted the front...
and one of the drain fitting in the oil pan

the only problem that i have came accross so far is that the upstream 02 sensor wires need to be extended about 4 inches because the stock srt4 02 housing has the 02 sensor port on the opposite side of the pipe then the stock neons...
