Tranny Swap done

Post by Marlon »

well i put the pro lx tranny in with a mx-6 clutch and Fidanza Flywheel and it was pretty easy, just got stuck on rusted bolts and stuff
i did the swap with 2 friends and we get it done in less then 2 days
here are some tips for people doing the swap
put the rear motor mount bolt on backwards, if u don't the shift linkage is gonna hit it and u cant shift into gear
and make sure u get the speedo gear from the pro lx tranny cause the stock one dosn't fit

here are some pics
