oh, by the way, there has been a timeline set for when this all needs to be done, and that is start of MAY 07

You have any plans to send it down the quarter with the supra box in it?
Or just going to enjoy being able to drive it without stripping 3rd? :lol:

well, in case anyone has ever wanted a direct size comparison between a T5 and an R154, here you go.. the R154 is a monster, and goes to show it was built to withstand some good power levels

ive done some sums and it appears i will use about a 35mm spacer, and the stick will sit about 20mm forwards of the original

i will need to do some machining to try fit the ford transducer, since 154 uses cable, and i will need to machine up an extension for the throwout bearing support, and also machine up a ring to locate the throwout bearing support with the crankshaft

well, no major updates, other than i stripped the box, it was in REAL nice condition... bonus.

i sent the important bits away to be cryotreated, including the alloy shift forks.. hopefully be back early next week, they were sent tuesday. should be able to see ATLEAST a 50% strength increase, in some items, they have seen a 300% increase.

its just cheap insurance, i cant afford to be doing this again.
