Manual Transmission Flush

I have a 2.2L 4 cylinder 5-speed. I am looking to change the fluid now that I have some good AMS oil trans. fluid. Can anyone help me?

Thanks

92' Beretta vs. 99' Firebird

The shifter class from what I have heard is dying out. From I hear the touch and goes are doing the best as far as driver count. I am thinking on getting into one this summer so I can drive something besides the Beretta until college is over.

(3100sfi) Have you ever raced out at Beaver Run? I used to drive a 125 shifter and have driven there once. My little brother just started basically this year and has raced in one of the classes there.

I've heard this V-tech is so great but I proved that it is just a bunch of hype like you said. We all agree on the magazine times. I've seen times for the new Z06 at 11.8 to 12.3!

Beretta vs. Buritto

Had a friend talking crap like any other friend. He has an older bronco with a V6 i believe. Raced him a few times from 40-60mph because I was so far ahead of him i let off so he woudn't cry.

92' Beretta vs. 99' Firebird

FWD gives the advantage of direct motor weight over the front wheels. RWD cars are set up to have the weight load transferred to the rear tires for grip. As far as preference, I like RWD because you can drive more with the back end. I did forget tires, good catch. I will take you on any time. Let me...

92' Beretta vs. 99' Firebird

I did not mean that power to weight does not matter. Being from the racing world, I know how much weight distribution can affect the handling and forward bit of the car. What I am trying to say is power to weight with comparing two vehicles is not the deciding factor. The other dude was stating that...

92' Beretta vs. 99' Firebird

Boys you two need to chill. fwd and rwd both have there advantages and disadvantages. With the correct suspension set up yes you can transfer more weight load to the rear tires but the same with keeping the weight above the front wheels. Just because a car runs certain times on a site, doesn't mean ...

92' Beretta vs. 99' Firebird

Yeah I wish my gearing was closer together but that's the problem with a Beretta they aren't sports cars and it would be a waste of time to mess with anything major like a trans. But someday I'll have a real car, not a burrito....

Racing Stripes for $20

I decided the plain paint was getting old so I was set on racing stripes. I went over to O' Reilly and picked up some good flat black, a scotch bright pad, pinstriping and then hit the hardware store to get painters tape and paper. 1. Wash the beast really well. Then wash where you want to put your ...

Didn't know the Fire bird had a 3.8 V6 but I didn't smoke him. He was catching me after about 80mph but the road was only a 35mph so we slowed down. Not my fault he can't drive as well as me. O and fastlane02, I'll race you anytime, don't expect to win though...

Newer Civic Vs. The Burrito

Got out of class yesterday and rolled up next to a new Civic. I couldn't tell what it had in it but it had the euro lights and a fart can so I decided to race him. We both started out slow because I wasn't sure he was racing and when he finally got on it I took him with the beast. I'm pretty sure I ...

good muffler brands

Hey what's wrong with fart cans?    I have one on mine and it actually sounds better than any other one that I've heard. All the imports with that awful raspy sound give fart cans a bad name!
