Believe it or not, Hyundai's have great shifters for adaptation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Cheap too. I have a bunch as I was/am designing a cable shifter for the 901 based on these. I can take a pic and am willing to sell most of the ones I have for $20 + ship. Yeah can you take a picture of that shifter for me, i might want it to experiment on. Oh also, Dr914, can i see the ones you have too?? PM me so I dont forget. I got a lot going on and a lot is slipping (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Steve, I just got off the phone with the plating shop. We anticipate finished product by tomorrow. I will keep you posted should any developments occur contrary to this latest information. |

I tried PMing him a while back to get some details, but got no response. He was last active in December 2008. Anyone live nearby that can give him a poke? Geoff |

Got mine running and was ready to pull it off the jack stands and go for a ride. I noticed a bad water leak only to find a bad water pump. I had to pull the engine to replace this.
I sure wish that I had replaced it when I did my timing belt. Bob |

I picked up a big heavy box of parts today! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I also wrote a BIG ugly check.
The flanges turned out really nice, even better than the first batch. You will be very happy with these parts. I will start shipping them out tomorrow. Steve |

Jose The subby trans you need is from the 5mt family of subaru transmissions. Some are domestic and some jdm. the jdm's tipically have lower gear ratios and maybe stronger and wider gears. Its a 5 speed and can be equipped with various available lsd diffs and a plethora of aftermarket and oem gear ratios. Can be had pretty cheap if you dont do aftermarket gears. |

Best of luck! Geoff |

They do these with a performance build that can take some serious power. -Jose |
