actually she caught herself asking a question without reading first
after she read she still had questions
i think that would have been done for male or female

also, im getting a feeling im going to have to find someone to do this engine swap for me, my moms being a b*#@& so since her bf is up her ass and does everything she says, he's prolly not going to do the swap for me now. Anyone know of anyone who does this stuff in the VA area? Im in southern VA so if theres someone in the northern part of NC that could work also...thanks

Re: TT Conversion

3SX is just north of Charlotte, NC.

i would peruse the regional sub-forums (regions, chapters) on 3Si to find someone local who could do the swap for you.

Re: TT Conversion

ok so now I have a question, what would i have to do to add awd to my 3000GT...i dont figure it would be too hard...and i figure since the all wheel steering doesnt really help that much unless ur parallel parking that i wouldnt have to do that also...which would make for a stronger link from the front to the rear...basically i suppose my question is...what do i need other than the transfer case and drivetrain...and where can i get it?

Re: TT Conversion

You have much to learn.

#1 AWS doesnt do anything to help paralell parking. A) it only engages at speeds over 35 mph. B) its same phase meaning the rear tires turn same as the front meaning it wouldnt do dick for helping on paralell parking if it did engage at low speeds.

#2 AWD conversion is FAR from simple. Its not just bolt on. Things need cut, welded, measured, etc etc etc. You essenstially need a TT donor car to do a conversion. And even having that its still not easy.

Look up www.bobthegreat.com. Huge write up. He basically did it to prove it could be done. He has said if he had to do it again, he wouldnt waste his time, money or effort and just bought a RT/TT or VR4 from the start/

mk this has to do with my conversion how?? Anyways, the update: Engine is still sittin on the pallet under a tarp. Dude never sent me my other stuff, so I gotta buy it all. (see wish list). Being that Im re-enlisting, after I get all my stuff paid off i'll be sending Vector money to get everything done for me while Im gone. It will be so nice to come back home and there my baby is. TT and all. mmmm..I need some alone time just thinking about it... LMFAO j/p anyways, quick question too. If I was thinking about possibly doin the ATX to MTX swap.. I know Im goin back and forth, but If im going to have the money why not? so, 5 or 6 spd tranny? and if I decide not to go that route, what things need to be done to beef up the ATX.. Thanks guys

This is where I come in. One thing that is absolutely necessary is a tranny cooler. Thats all I had on mine for a long time, and I never had any other problems. My time for that is in my sig, of course several years ago (friends BPU RT/TT that night was running an 8.7 @ 82 w/ 1.8 60 ft). Now, I do recommend going ahead and getting a shift kit. If your just planning on running 9b's, i'd say your good to go with those two mods to the tranny.

Other things you can do if you want is the end clutch upgrade (but i wouldn't do it until your current end clutch burns up), high-stall torque converter, and LSD.
