nice job with the car , I'm still waiting for my motor from osakajdmmotors. its been a week. So how long did it take to get the motor at your house!? well keep us updated on the progress.

the clutch is from pro clutch, got it off of ebay like a year and a half ago and its been sitting for a while. its a stage 3 and payed like 300, and came with pilot bearing and release bearing. i figured its stage 3, will prolly hold anything i throw at it and for only 3 hundred, why not?

for the motor, it took about a week and half for my money to clear because i bought it before i transferred my money to paypal, took about a week or so for the place to process the order, then like another week to get the motor... something like that cant exactly remember.

well i was looking at my fly wheel last week and decided i didnt want to put that disgusting looking thing in with my new clutch so i just bought a fidanza lite weight alum flywheel. 11lbs, oh ya... only concern is it being alum, just hope i dont get any warpage... its expected to get here thursday, ill take some pics...

that was a good buy there. So when are you going to be putting it all in? one more question, how hard is it to take the motor out of your car, and is there any tips you could hook me up with about it? thanks alot and keep us up to date on your progress!

im gonna try and bolt up the tranny in the morning but i dunno if it will happen; i dont have a garage and its supposed to be in the low 50's... plus i gotta find the tranny-to-engine bolts as i took it apart over a year ago. pulling the engine was kinda a pain in the ass, but once we knew to unbolt the clutch plate from the flywheel it was a breeze. one tip i wish i could go back and do was label everything... and be specific, it will make you life so much easier when you goto reassemble.
