As most have said on to something new,
cars not people are very replaceable.

Yup. You can get another vehicle. We can't get another Hide.

I was in a accident where I lost control of the car too. There was gravel on the road due to construction and the insurance guy even said I probably had a case to sue Caltrans. I told him it was my fault (wouldn't have happened if I wasn't speeding) and that I was happy to be alive and wasn't going to sue anyone.

Bah. Only if you drive like an idiot... and who the hell really needs much more than 300-325 anyways. I really don't see Heedz going all that crazy and it's really pointless on a daily driver anyways.

All these dyno queens kill me.



Heez... don't trip out on the 5spd unless you plan on going crazy. My trans has the same amount of miles on it as my motor... 214k. Only issue I've had was a stuck syncro. The people that break them are the retards out there street racing and going drag racing... not folks like you and I.

Hell... worst case scenario you have an issue and you put a built 5spd in.... or a 6spd for that matter.

Will do Matt thanks.

Well the thing is Ray, you don't know what the previous owners done. Esp since I'd want to track the car.... 5 speed won't cut it with a 18g set up. Now rebuilding and swap is possible but.... with the funds i receive.... highly unlikely. Rather go for something thats already done.
