Getting ready to tackle the task of installing the pedals for my five speed swap. I laid the pedals out and want to run this by you guys before I go any further. The gas pedal looks like its mostly OK, but im a little concerned about the clutch pedal. Its super hard to push the pedal from all the way engaged to all the way disengaged, like the assembly would go flying out of my hands if I wasnt expecting it. I thought maybe it was on there backwards, but there doesnt seem to be a better way to get it in there. http://i.imgur.com/lVSQch1h.jpg http://i.imgur.com/beJFYsDh.jpg Cross posting this in my build thread so I can keep track.

Jealous. Looks great. Can't wait to get mine in. Trying to find shift linkage now for five speed swap. Last piece needed for the manual conversion

No such thing as too much my man! I'll leave them clear for now and see how I feel after a while. Still always on the lookout for some real amber ones, so maybe those will pop up. Haven't fully decided on wheels yet but I've narrowed it down to a couple of options. Will more than likely be silver or gold. I may get some dark blue rpf1's as "backup" wheels at some point too

So is that a vote for amber corners?

Pulled the trigger on some clean OEM corner lights, since mine disappeared. http://i.imgur.com/TqvkV7lh.png I will probably take them apart and spray them amber from the inside, r/c car body style. Maybe not though.

http://i.imgur.com/vVAzeYZh.jpg Just ordered a new transmission mount and clutch cable! I guess my plan is to separate the motor (EJ22 n/a) from transmission, and only use the manual transmission. Get it all bolted up and the remainder of the five speed swap handled, then pick up the EJ20g and get that started.

Any of you nice fellas know where I can download a repair manual?

Oh nah hahahahaha, just rolling around on my garage floor taking up space. Stay tuned for me to trip over it and break my ankle soon

Hahahaha, it's a universal bag for a bag over coil setup. I bought them forever ago but I'm not going to use them.

BOOM!! Missing some screws and switches, but I am SO stoked to have door cards in finally! http://i.imgur.com/ANqXMTph.jpg http://i.imgur.com/P3xJpHuh.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ok5YN9ah.jpg http://i.imgur.com/m5D3XrSh.jpg

Finally got some complete door cards! A friend that I met somehow on the internet was down in Virginia from Jersey and he graciously brought them down and gave them to me for free! Thanks, Skylar! http://i.imgur.com/hjdo2Eqh.jpg

I want any door cards or inserts I can get my hands on. Will pay in dollars, loonies, euros, or sexy 8x10 photos of myself. Signed of course.

Spent some time cleaning the car up and putting some stuff together today. Photo updates! Rear seats are super clean. All I did was dust them off in this picture: http://i.imgur.com/brslki1l.jpg Steering wheel in! Definitely need either a quick release or the non-slim hub: http://i.imgur.com/7hz2FQSl.jpg Got rid of the ugly wiper. Need to get a rubber plug of some sort for the big ass hole in the window now. Also need the lower and upper molding for the hatch. http://i.imgur.com/jzAAxDGl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SIct8fvl.jpg This molding is non-existent, so it looks like I will have to clean up the original stuff and have it sprayed: http://i.imgur.com/RVZePCxl.jpg Door cards look nice, except for the damn missing inserts. UGH. Someone help me. http://i.imgur.com/hbQ57Vsl.jpg Passenger side http://i.imgur.com/NwsfHmkl.jpg

Roooooooaaaaaaar!!! Tiger emoji

Hub On! Next step is to actually put the wheel on! http://i.imgur.com/6FORF2tl.jpg

Thanks! Hopefully it will be done in the next hundred years or so!

A few photos for you guys: http://i.imgur.com/o6JkE1Ul.jpg http://i.imgur.com/QPBgfHml.jpg http://i.imgur.com/kfoJdx4l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/NUBBfFjl.jpg

Hahahahaha well I'm glad I could help! More photos of car coming soon

Not the first time someone on the Internet has been wrong haha

I finally closed on my house and moved in! Put my Aussie tails and garnish on http://imgur.com/o6JkE1U.jpg

So much beer missing.

That thing is super rad.
