Y do i have to make it look like crap to eat up hondas? Lol it can look good and dust them too lol...either way i think the lowering kit and rims will be all they need to be curious about what's under the hood

well.. once you get the srt clutch up and running on the 5 speed trans, let me know that it works for 100% sure, and then i may look into upgrading the stock clutch in mine :smileup:

idk.. ive had the car close to the speed limiter in 4th, 5th is kind of a dead gear for me.
What rpm do you sit at on the highway in 5th? I dont have a tach, so i dont know lol

What's you road speed at that RPM?
My CVT does about 2100 or so at 65 MPH.
At 3500, I'd probably be going 80 -85 MH.

Yes, same 5 spd is used on 1.8 and 2.4 normally aspirated engines.
Same CVT is used on 2.0 and 2.4 engines too.

so we decided not to go with the cluster swap also..that is another 10 hours of work so I said we would wait till another time....first things first i need the car to run....there is probably another ten hours of work...we need to get the motor and tranny in the car and run all the wiring. after that try to fire it up and see we happens (warning lights. codes etc...) wont be till late next week..they have two corvettes ahead of me and they only require minor work. so i said dont worry about my car at the moment..im in no rush right now...so we'll get back to it next week!
