Now just convert her to Manual 😛

I looked in the wiring diagrams for you dude. You can’t remove that harness…well you could but it would be a bitch and a half cause it is mixed in with harness under dash under the electrical tape and heat shrink.

Shocks and spring look good, get em on the car now and take some pics 🙂

Andrew.

**UPDATE**

Alright so here is the finished product as far as the VLSD goes.

This vlsd came from a car that had abs. On the side of the diff was the cable that lead to a sensor for the abs. Being as my car does not have abs I didn’t want a random cable just hanging there. So out that came and this was made for it.

would you believe that one of those cooling fins was actually broken off at one time?  
Well it was and there is new metal in there somewhere 😉

I am currently waiting on a bunch of stuff to be able to put it all back together anyway.

Alright my floor is painted, well almost all the floor once the new spare wheel well is in the back it will be painted also but for now the front has been finished off so that sound deadening can be put onto the floor.

Here are some pics for all you pic loving people.

okay so… update time…

I got a tomei shifter from the forsale section and this is how it turned out.  
A big thanks goes out to the man that shipped that up to me

And well I had to put the clutch pedal and new brake pedal in for the tranny swap so after many an hour fighting to put the brake pedal in the clutch was a breeze…

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/pedals.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/pedals.jpg)

Lastly I am not sure if anyone has done this but I was not a huge fan of a strut bar mount touching medal to medal so this was made…

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/gasket.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/gasket.jpg)

Tranny goes in the car along with the new centerforce clutch 🙂

wow … an update with pics 😉

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/belt01.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/belt01.jpg)

My car being american had automatic seatbelts that were, well to say the least a pain in the ass. So I said good by to them and got brand new ones 🙂

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/front01.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/front01.jpg)

I was getting kinda ticked off with the dirty front end…  
So it was time to clean it, put new silverstars in, replace the rubbers that go along the front of the top and generally clean everything 🙂

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/int013.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/int013.jpg)

I know some people liked the clean black floor but this had to happen. Now it looks like a part of a space shuttle. The material is called phatmat.

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/int014.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/int014.jpg)

While repainting the floor etc I had to remove all the heat deadening. Thankfully this stuff will hold back the heat too so my feet won’t get toasty while driving aroung 🙂

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/intake01.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/intake01.jpg)

This is the stock intake box that my car was breathing through… I thought the hole was small for any sort of performance so I changed that around.

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/intake02.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/intake02.jpg)

My car now gets to breath through this. I hope it pulls a bit harder now.

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/wheels01.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/wheels01.jpg)

These are the stock rims I picked up. They are not in mint shape but I needed something cheap that was not a steelie.

![http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/tire01.jpg](http://ca.geocities.com/stephenschattin@rogers.com/pics/tire01.jpg)

The rims came with yokohama Avid H4’s I figured they are not a bad tire and for the price with the rims they were a great deal.  
They have 90%+ tread left on them being as they were used for less then a month.

I have also installed a pivot headlight controller in the car now but I don’t have any pics of it. All it is really is a little box that has a dial that allows me to control how far my headlights go down.  
My tranny is completely wired. I figured out how to do the interlock for depressing the clutch… have yet to redo the wiring for that.  
Either way the car will be out soon.

have a good one people.
