#298243 slight update. got the flywheel in. installed pilot bearing. also when i went to install the throwout bearing i deceided to read the stamp on the trans. turns out i got an A000 = ex trans instead of a B000=SI trans. kinda choked but oh well.

only got a few more parts to pick up and i should be good to throw in the 5 speed.

also my bro snaped a good quality pic of my footwork

#302511 been a minute but a lil update. 5 speed parts are in. running nicley just havnt gotten around to mod my ecu to accept my 5 speed tranny. process of breaking in my new clutch.

still having bad MPG problems. gotta settle out the high idle with no load issue. 1500-1700 rpm.

also got plans for front and rear swaybar setup aswell.


engine feels more peppier with the 5 speed. gonna A6 cam it. maybe deck the head .040" and run a thin y8 headgasket to get the comp around 10.5:1

will post pics sometime soon

i never said they WERE identical, i said i beleive they are ALMOST identical i couldnt remember wich gear was different and didnt want to give false information :thumb: plus unless your driving around in 5th gear all the time its not really going to matter all that much

EDIT: haha ooops i got the stams mixxed my bad.. hmm i could have sworn they were reversed...huh oh well live and learn

thanks brahh.

little update. got the head back from the machine shop .030" decked off the head. slapped on my valve cover and z6 IM just for shits and giggles.

Image

kinda woried about my piston to valve ratio but looking at the relifes in the b7 pistons. i think it might work. wanting to go to y8 2 layer headgasket now instead of z6. 10.2:1 vs. 10.5:1 hmmmmm

gonna clay or putty my pistons and check for valve clearance before im certain. my current head isnt coming off till the day of the swap.
