First off nothing on the car is rigged.It was just to make sure it didn't leak.This trans can handle your driving eric.There is also a rumor that the clutch doesn't rattle anymore.

Yes that is true, to my amazement when I released the clutch it did not rattle.... Spec sucks.

May have spoke too soon.. After a ride the trans still has a little bit of that noise... It still blows my mind...

Clutch is very smooth engagement I have to say... Makes me want one for my Legacy now since it is so streetable.

I'll get a vid soon.

Yeah it did the same thing with the spec clutch.
I figure all my mounts being solid can't help much either with the noise.I need a video i have to see this.=)

Hey everything looks really great jon.
I didn't see my strut brace on there?

Post by **3X00-Modified** » Sun Nov 27, 2011 9:22 pm

Yeah I pulled it off for a second because the fuel line routing was in the way I'm going to move those lines when it's cool and drop the brace back in.

Who me? 17 pages is a lot to read, but I got the jist. Built motor and trans swap?

Still like the combo... Or is there something I missed?

He rebuilt and upgraded the 3400 V6 swap that was already done prior to this, and upgraded a couple trans components, but it was already a 5 speed with LSD as well prior to this.

I agree though, Super Clean indeed!
