K, so this weekend, despite finals starting tomorrow....i got my tranny mount all done and did the shifter relocation. This week, if i get some time between tests, i will start mocking up the tunnel. Progress will go a little slow on the car for the next few weeks while i build a cage for a local guy's s13 hatch. If he doesnt mind, ill post up pics of that too.
Anywho, here are some photomographs of the tranny mount as well as the shifter relocation: So...being that I moved the engine/trans about 3.5 inches back, the shifter obivously isnt in the right spot any more....leaving me with only one responsible choice....make a new hole! OR, better yet...use OEM ![]() ![]() Clear out the appropriate space to move backwards and then tack the shifter hole in place at its new hom. Now, observe empty space: ![]() Cut up repacement metal and tack in for seamless install: ![]() Weld out and then grind back down for that "hey this looks OEM" look: ![]() Alternate angle ![]() With the shifter in place: ![]() Mounting spot for one side of the tranny mount...unfortunately i didnt take more pics of the mount itself....ill take some in a week or two when i pull the engine again! ![]() Engine and tranny laying as they will when its all done! Glorious! ![]() So many cool things in this picture its not even funny ![]() ![]() Take care guys and as always, thanks for reading and keeping up with my progress! |

Yeah, I'm not sure how tall you are, but the way I have my wheel and seat set up, my shifter is actually too far away from me anyways. I would kill to have my shifter moved back 3" or so
