Dude HKS is by far better brand than anything out there copying it... u get the quality of the product .... but just sucks that fact that they racked up the prices so bad after they pulled out from our market.... bottom line is up to u what to buy dude I would pick HKS over RR if i had the resources to do so any day with my eyes close...

cant wait for my snow tires to come in ....

the 8 was being put into winter mode, which meant swap the rims, change oil, wash car, sta-bil the fuel, fill up gas tank, pull the battery, put the cover on, and kiss her goodbye until spring

do you guys know an approx estimate for converting a fd to manual from auto? i heard the parts were about 850, not sure about labor.

if i can find an auto for.. 8-10k?

i figure from what you guys have told me that manual CW's go for 12-13 because of the color where blacks or reds are 10-12.

i can do the swap, its easy, ive done it before

however you will need the clutch pedal assembly, trans with slave cylender and hoses, driveshaft, PPF, center consol plastics, flywheel and clutch kit and also a PFC, everything else is wiring

i also highly recommend getting a lightened flywheel at the time since you would already have the counterweight bolted to the engine, no need to remove the 54mm

Hahaha, the LS2 is going to be done soon. I just need some wheels and tires + some zeals and I'm set. Maybe some exterior mods as well.


Anyone feel like driving me to Metuchen anytime soon? Gotta limp the car back home or to the bodyshop.
