Yeah just south of DFW. Not sure on the wheels, i think they are 17s. I can just measure them from one end to the other right?

Just a random shot in the parking garage.

Had the car on jackstands yesterday trying to bleed the clutch cylinder when i noticed a big hole in the exhaust. I welded two straight pieces of pipe together and it came out alright. Also pics of the door primerd, almost ready for paint!

Finished up the rear wiper delete today. Welded a small washer where the hole use to be. Sweet! And yes I do all the body work myself.

w58 is a NA 5 speed and the r154 is the Turbo 5 speed, the r154 is built stronger then the w58 and is more suited for turbo application(not that you couldn't use a w58 with a 7mgte, the reliability factor is decreased when doing so).
