Nice...welcome to the DOHC VTEC club...wooohooo... Looks way nice. How long did the whols swap take...1 week...2??? And was it hard to do the Auto--->Manual conversion??? My friend has an auto, and all I've ever done is manual swaps...so is it fairly simple to convert auto to manual??? Looks Great!

We did it in one day!

The 5-speed conversion wasn't that hard to do... gutting the auto shifter and crap wasn't really that difficult... threading the hardline and installing the clutch pedal was kinda tedious though...
We ran into a problem with the tranny mount... an auto chasis needs a different mount but both Place Racing and Hasport were on back order.. so my guys had to make me a custom mount! worked out great!!!

I didn't really pay for it... it was just sitting at the shop... along with a bunch of others! John just looks at 'em and says to me 'lets do a GSR radiator'... i was like 'yeah sure, ok buddy!'

AW! anymore sitting around!? lol how much do you think they go for? are those in all GSR's? I love how it covers the whole front of the engine bay! plus I need more than my stock one because this GSR engine is built for racing so the stock one won't cut it!
