i see wagons like this all the time on ebay from cali, actually i can say at least 10 different ones, but they are the regular ex ones, i dont think i have seen the siR on there, gonna keep it auto??? you convert it to manual and it's on!!!!!!!!!!! i mean it's super clean now, but 5speed would be like just absolute dopeness!!!

Phenomenal! The attention to detail in your work is outstanding, just by following along with the photos and descriptions, it really made it feel like I was seeing the work being done in person. Now that you've converted over to manual, have you had a chance to try it all out? Looking forward to seeing more photos and the continued progress of the car!

Very nice work and pics of progress man! Amazing work!

[marcusv8thunder]

Awesome work! So the brake is different then because of the positioning of the steering column, interesting.

And a major all round service while you at it
